How young is ‘young’?
That’s the question on the lips of fight fans the world over after the reigning UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor revealed that he is to retire from MMA early.
‘The Notorious’ posted a tweet explaining how he was going to hang up his gloves before it’s too late and retire as a wealthy man.
I have decided to retire young.
Thanks for the cheese.

It’s not clear whether or not McGregor means that he has just decided to call it a day sooner than people might anticipate or whether he is just trolling his followers but most of his fans jumped to the conclusion that the fighting days of ‘The Notorious’ are already over.
McGregor is scheduled to fight Nate Diaz in the main event of UFC 200 as he looks to avenge the only defeat of his UFC career and surely he’s going to honour that commitment.
Certain fans aren’t so sure.
@TheNotoriousMMA surely not?????
