Ahead of his highly anticipated return to action, Conor McGregor recently revealed that he has another documentary about himself on the way and shared a short teaser of McGregor Forever on his social media handles.

Netflix is set to release the documentary on May 17, which is expected to be a four-part docuseries that will go over McGregor's past few years in the UFC. It will also feature a deep dive into his horrific leg injury and his road to recovery.

'The Notorious' has been sidelined for over two years following the brutal leg fracture he suffered in his trilogy fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. Interestingly, the documentary teaser begins with McGregor breaking down his mental state during his infamous verbal diatribe aimed at Poirier's wife in the immediate aftermath of his leg snapping.

McGregor had also previously confirmed that he is the executive producer for the docuseries show. Through four one-hour-long episodes, the show is expected to explore McGregor's efforts and commitment towards achieving mind-boggling success and will also focus on his conflicts in and out of the octagon.

A few days after the documentary drops, Conor McGregor will be seen reprising his role as a coach on The Ultimate Fighter opposite Michael Chandler before they fight in the cage sometime later this year.
