Late Monday night Conor McGregor revealed a teaser for an upcoming documentary that has MMA fans in a tailspin. The series, which is set for Netflix on May 17, will feature McGregor's road to recovery after suffering a brutal injury during his fight with Dustin Poirier.

In the documentary, titled 'McGregor Forever' we see the former champion in a hospital room lamenting about the moment he thought his career was over.

"I thought it was over as well, that’s why I flipped into a different mode," McGregor says of his now-controversial post-fight interview while sitting on the canvas of the Octagon. "Now, it was the adrenaline as well and I know it would’ve calmed down and part of me is thinking 'Jesus, imagine it was just taken from me like that. I would be a different person and it was a bit scary, to be honest. But, it’s McGregor forever. That’s it. It’s done. It’s McGregor forever and don’t you forget it."
