Irish professional mixed martial artist Conor McGregor announced his retirement from MMA on Saturday, June 6.
This is the third time this featherweight and lightweight champion made such an announcement.
In a statement on Twitter, McGregor said: “Lack of excitement in MMA is the main reason for my retirement”.
“I had my goals, my plans, the season. I had everything laid out. Obviously the world has gone bleeding bonkers at the minute. There’s f***all happening at the minute. They want to throw me up and down weights and offer me stupid fights. I don’t really give a f***. I’m over it. I’m just not excited about the game, Ariel. I don’t know if it’s no crowd. I don’t know what it is. There’s just no buzz for me,” wrote Cornor.
Conor already started celebrating his retirement as he shared the photo of a cake that read, “Happy retirement daddy” through his all social media accounts.
