Conor McGregor has been released from the hospital on his 33rd birthday, UFC president Dana White said. McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) underwent a successful three-hour surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles to repair his broken left tibia and fibula Sunday after suffering the gruesome injury in his first-round TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in the UFC 264 main event.
