Fart noise.

The guy can't stand not being the center of attention. He'll be back.

Isn’t this already his second “retirement”?

It’s marketing. He needs a match up that will make him money but the UFC is set up against him right now. He likely won’t fight at 145, where he would dominate. He could quickly get a title shot at that weight. 155 is Gaethje and Khabib for title. Both of those would beat him. 170 should be Masvidal and Usman for title, plus those 170 dudes are huge compared to him.

He’s on the outside looking in on the big money title fights. What are his options? Nate Diaz trilogy? Old Anderson Silva catch weight 175? Will those sell?

I'd guess the next fight will classified by the police as assault and battery.

Notice he didn’t do it in a Tuesday but in fight night. People paying attention to others and he didn’t
Like it so he faked his retirement

I'd love to see him come back and fight a boxer and get his ass kicked again. Would be perfect for Tyson. Huge pay per view opportunities and I bet a 55 yr old mike Tyson can still pack a wallop and knock McGregor into another dimension.

Too bad weight difference could never allow this. :(

Who gives a s**t if McGregor retires or not?

The world is falling apart with a pandemic, and the U.S. with race riots all over the country. I don't give two cents what McGregor is doing. Stupid.
