McGregor Forever Netflix Documentary: Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Girlfriend, Heather Milligan, Came to Conor McGregor’s Rescue After Career-Threatening Injury Left Him Scared

UFC star Conor McGregor suffered a horrific leg injury when he faced Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. While the Irish fighter, under the influence of adrenaline, declared, “It’s not over,” the possibility of him never returning to the Octagon loomed large. The gruesome injury threatened to end the career of the former UFC champion. However, his grit and determination and an old friend’s help helped him recover and bounce back.

The incredible story of his recovery, with the help of Heather Milligan, at least partly forms the backdrop of the Irish fighter’s upcoming documentary. Slated to release on May 17, the documentary titled ‘McGregor Forever’ also covers the role of Heather Milligan, who previously worked with ‘Notorious’ during his 2013 ACL tear. Notably, she is also the girlfriend of multiple Mr. Olympia winner and popular figure, Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Conor McGregor hailed ‘best in business’ Milligan for her work

The 34-year-old fighter, in a state of despair and uncertainty, turned to Milligan in August 2021, a month after his unfortunate injury took place. ‘Mystic Mac’ then informed his fans he started working on his rehabilitation and hoped to recover in record time, just like how he did in 2013.

Updating the same on his Twitter handle, he wrote, “Excellent work today with Heather Milligan of Elite Orthosport! This woman and the team here is incredible!”

“The same team I reparied my acl with in record time back in 2013. The same team I will repair this bone with in record time! Let’s go team!,” he added later on.

The Dublin-born in one of his previous tweets, during his rough patch of 2013, had labeled Milligan as “best in the business”. Thus, he penned, “Doing Rehab with Heather Milligan!! Best in the BUSINESS!! DO yo thang H-Milli haha”

McGregor and Milligan’s team worked wonders together, and as a result, the fans are expecting the UFC cash cow to mark his Octagon return later this year.

McGregor gave the timeline for his return

Markedly, the MMA fighter who assumed the coaching duties in The Ultimate Fighter S31 is gearing up for a bout against Michael Chandler. Traditionally, the coaches on the TUF square off against each other after the closure of the season.

McGregor, in a recent conversation, revealed he intended to return “Sometime end of summer.”
