Conor McGregor has continued to make headlines following his UFC 329 injury, this time teaming up with fitness influencer Ashton Hall for a high-energy promotional shoot.

The collaboration appeared to be connected to McGregor’s energy drink brand. In the video, Hall was seen arriving by helicopter before sprinting at full speed and jumping over a vehicle.

McGregor then appeared in the shoot, creating an action-packed sequence that matched the high-intensity style associated with both personalities.

Hall later shared his reaction to working alongside McGregor and highlighted the fact that the Irishman participated in the shoot only eight days after undergoing knee surgery.

“War with my brother @thenotoriousmma, 8 days post surgery – winners win,” Hall wrote.

The collaboration quickly attracted attention because of McGregor’s recent injury and the significant recovery period expected ahead of him.

Conor McGregor ignores doctor’s advice after knee surgery

McGregor suffered a serious knee injury during his comeback fight at UFC 329. The Irish superstar was unable to continue after roughly a minute of action against Max Holloway.

The injury represented another setback for McGregor, who had already endured a lengthy absence following a leg injury suffered during his fight against Dustin Poirier.

Following UFC 329, McGregor confirmed that he had suffered an ACL injury and underwent knee surgery. He is expected to spend around a year recovering before potentially returning to competition.

Despite the recommended recovery period, McGregor participated in the promotional shoot with Hall just eight days after his operation.

McGregor reveals he was told to rest

McGregor also addressed the shoot on social media, admitting that he went against his doctor’s recommendation to rest following surgery.

“8 days post surgery. Doctor said rest. I said load the fkin belt. This is MAC ENERGY,” McGregor wrote while welcoming Hall to the promotional campaign.

His comments underlined his determination to remain active despite the injury. However, McGregor’s participation in physically demanding activities so soon after surgery also highlights the importance of following medical guidance during a major rehabilitation process.

McGregor faces a lengthy recovery

McGregor’s immediate priority will be recovering from his knee injury and rebuilding his fitness. The ACL issue is expected to keep him away from competition for an extended period.

The former UFC champion has already experienced a long road back from his previous leg injury, making his latest setback another major challenge in his career.

For now, his appearance alongside Ashton Hall shows that McGregor remains active in his business and promotional ventures even while recovering from surgery. Whether he can maintain that momentum without affecting his rehabilitation will be closely watched by MMA fans.
