Paul is recovering from a triceps injury he suffered earlier this year.
McGregor suffered a leg injury while trying to hit opponent Max Holloway with a roundhouse kick at UFC 329 on Saturday night. The fight was declared in the first round. This was McGregor’s first fight in the Octagon in five years.
“My head gasket is gone. Ruined,” McGregor wrote to X after the fight. “I didn’t suffer any injuries in the fight. I was kicking, standing and jumping backstage throughout the camp and before the fight. This came out of nowhere. I’m beyond darkness here. I can only describe it as hell.”

He added, “I was so primed and ready for this fight, I can’t believe what happened. Going into the fight, the rumors about me walking out are bullshit. I was calm, ready, and confident. I’m in shock at what happened. Here the devil is literally staring me right in the face. I’m not busy. I’ll be at church tomorrow. I’ll get through this. I won’t give up. I’ll be back.”
