I guess he's going full time into the bar fight scene ...

Mike Oxlong · 26-03-2019 07:49AM

What.... again?!

amcalester · 26-03-2019 07:50AM

Wish he'd do it quietly.

Tom Mann Centuria · 26-03-2019 07:51AM

He doesn't need to worry about drug testing now then, not that it matters much in that sport.

Ahhhhh feck off

So he ended his career on a low, not a high?

I'm going to go straight out and say it anyway, I always found him an annoying bollox, yeah he was a great showman, but his antics out if the ring always seemed to steal from his performance inside them.

Not to mention his utter failure to stay away from questionable company, and indulge in questionable past times.

Hopefully he now stays the hell out of the limelight and our youth of today will no longer think that his behaviour and antics are that of a role models.

Good riddance. Scumbag.

Well he was probably high when he tweeted that.

Will be interesting to see if he gets fat

nice_guy80 · 26-03-2019 07:56AM

must have a few paternity cases coming up

Phileas Frog · 26-03-2019 07:57AM

Now a full time mad bastard

sonic85 · 26-03-2019 07:57AM

He's a clown but I'd say there's no way he's retired. Reading his tweet it looks like he was drunk when he wrote and sent it. If it's actually true I'd say he'll be back in a few years when he's blown half his cash.

Applying for CEO job in FAI

GhostyMcGhost · 26-03-2019 07:59AM

Congratulations to the new executive vice president of the UFC

sbsquarepants · 26-03-2019 07:59AM

Fúck him, he hasn't won a fight in years - unless you count that one with the auld fella in the elanora!:D

Just gonna focus on the <SNIP> now I suppose?

Vicxas · 26-03-2019 08:01AM

He hasn't retired, he was probably just coked off his head.... again

He's not putting it off any longer; he's enrolling in the University of Life for that PhD he's been toying with in his mind all these years. The Department of Advanced U ok hun? Studies won't know what hit it.

Good for him I say.

Ush1 · 26-03-2019 08:02AM

Obviously not retired. It's a negotiating tactic that he has used before.

Beechwoodspark · 26-03-2019 08:02AM

Wonder is he going to be John delaneys replacement

cournioni · 26-03-2019 08:03AM

Boring.

mad muffin · 26-03-2019 08:05AM

…again

ianob7 · 26-03-2019 08:08AM

3rd story on the sky news app ... Job done as far as he's concerned

I read that too.

He can make money without getting beat up. Plus the Whiskey and other ventures. His money works for him now, rather than him working for the money. More power to his elbow, albeit these sinister rumours out there really make me feel uncomfortable.

bri007 · 26-03-2019 08:11AM

Heard a rumor he’s going for the next Taoiseach! He was sussing out the competition with Leo at the parade in the USA!

Really easily and quickly actually

26-03-2019 08:14AM

hilarious to see the first person posting the news to the ufc forum getting banned

RiseToMe · 26-03-2019 08:19AM

Seen this on The Journal this morning, strange that they've turned off the commenting on it, no?

reg114 · 26-03-2019 08:24AM

Katie Taylor has fought 13 times since 2016, McGregor twice. Whose mentality and behaviour would you rather your kids copy? A model professional athlete who is never in the headlines for anything but the right reasons or a blowhard obnoxious blabbermouth who is pure tabloid trash. Since 2015 McGregor has fought in the UFC 6 times and lost twice. Its a testament to the power of social media and a rapacious 24 hour trash news cycle that a fighter with 4 victories in 5 years has amassed 30 million instagram followers and a fighting purse of 15 million dollars ( 5 million of which came from the clown show that was the Mayweather fight).
McGregor belongs in the same category as another vile mouthpiece who makes my skin crawl, Trump. The world will be a better place the day both fall from their pedestals.

He could do grand Marshall at the paddy’s day parade next year as a little thank you back to Ireland
