In that outing, the Irishman lost via first-round TKO after breaking his leg in the final moments of the frame. As a result of the injury, he\u2019s been out of action for well over a year.<\/p>\n<p>As of now, the former champion\u2019s return is yet to be announced.

The controversial upstart combat sports promotion was founded by White late last year, with the debut coming on TBS earlier this week. The debut was previously postponed due to the UFC president slapping his wife on New Year\u2019s Eve.<\/p>\n<p>The debut of the show pulled in under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bjpenn.com\/mma-news\/dana-white\/power-slap-debut-episode-viewership-comes-in-under-300k\/\">300,000 viewers<\/a>, and a highly-negative reaction from audiences. However, it seems that Conor McGregor was entertained, as he revealed on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/@TheNotoriousMMA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a>. There, he teased he could become the Joe Rogan of the promotion, likely meaning a move to the commentary booth.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">If anything, power slap is showing the importance of turning back your shoulder and torquing your torso into the shot. \u201cTurning of the hip\u201d potentially the wrong terminology being used.
