Conor McGregor's announcement that he is to retire from mixed martial arts ...
- Conor McGregor’s announcement that he is to retire from mixed martial arts sent shockwaves around the sporting world on Tuesday, but in a sport that seldom plays by normal rules it could mean his comeback is closer than ever.
"Hey guys quick announcement, I've decided to retire from the sport formally known as 'Mixed Martial Art' today," McGregor posted on his verified Twitter accountIt was the second time that McGregor had announced on Twitter that he was leaving the sport. A month after losing to Nate Diaz in March 2016 he said he had decided to “retire young”.
“He has the money to retire and his whiskey is killing it. It totally makes sense,” White said in a statement. “If I was him I would retire too. According to media reports in the United States, the latest dispute is over McGregor’s ability to headline a card with no title on the line. Given their past dealings, McGregor’s tweet and White’s statement could well be tactical moves in a high-stakes game in which the winner gets to decide what happens next.
Renowned for his trash-talking, McGregor has never been far from controversy inside and outside the cage, and he was recently arrested in Florida after smashing a fan’s phone.
