Former UFC two-division champion Notorious Conor McGregor is currently recovering from an injury he sustained while preparing for his return bout at UFC 303 last month. Mystic Mac was all set to lock horns with the sixth-ranked UFC fighter, Michael Chandler, in the main event.

Unfortunately, Conor McGregor had to pull himself out of his much-awaited return fight against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 after he injured his pinky toe finger during training session.  

Conor McGregor' The Final Boss 

Recently, Conor McGregor quoted a tweet about him where an X (formerly Twitter) user praised Conor McGregor. 

In the tweet by username, the Ultimate Playboys expressed, “Conor McGregor makes money because of who he is. He has reached the third stage. First, you get paid for what you do, and then you're paid for what you know. The final stage is when you get paid for who you are.”

Conor McGregor quoted the same image and labeled himself with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s WWE moniker, “The Final Boss.”  

The Rock made his WWE return, turning heel after decades and adopting a new WWE gimmick popularly known as “The Final Boss.” The Rock teamed up with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania XL Night One and faced the team of Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. The Brahma Bull gave a stunning performance even after entering the squared circle after almost 11 years.
