REACTION: Everybody is talking about Conor McGregor not fighting at UFC 200

Has The Notorious genuinely retired?

At first, many people thought Conor McGregor's retirement tweet was a joke, especially when Nate Diaz was joining in on the fun, but when John Kavanagh and respected MMA journalist Ariel Helwani got involved, people started to fear the worst. UFC President Dana White has since confirmed that the featherweight champion has been pulled from UFC 200, with McGregor himself very bluntly refusing an interview to explain his retirement announcement.
