Conor McGregor- Father And Coach BOTH Seem To Confirm News

Yesterday when Conor McGregor announced that he was retiring young on Twitter, a media storm ensued. Fans took to social media wondering was it a hoax or a publicity stunt or if he was actually serious...

He was then pulled out of UFC200 for refusing to fly to Las Vegas for press duties. Both his father Tony and his John Kavanagh have since confirmed that to their knowledge, the retirement is for real.

McGregor gave a short response to an Icelandic media outlet looking to speak to him after he announced his retirement news on Twitter, before he was pulled out of UFC200 for refusing to fly to Las Vegas for press duties. When MMA Frettie asked him for an interview, he declined saying; “No, I’m retired, fuck interviews."
