According to sports.yahoo.com, Conor McGregor is making steady progress in his recovery following the ACL injury he sustained during his UFC 329 rematch against Max Holloway. The injury occurred just 69 seconds into the fight, abruptly ending McGregor's return bout.

Speaking on The Ariel Helwani Show, McGregor's longtime coach John Kavanagh revealed that the former two-division UFC champion is 'moving around quite well' as he continues rehabilitation. Kavanagh also reflected on McGregor's signature approach of initiating fights with a planned first move, such as the jumping switch kick that unfortunately led to the injury.

While no specific timeline was given, the update from Kavanagh indicates that McGregor remains focused on his comeback and is actively working toward returning to competition.
