Earlier today (Tues. April 19, 2016), Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight champion Conor McGregor announced that he decided to "retire young."
Of course, many feel McGregor was simply seeking attention with his latest troll job, as he didn't indicate he'd be walking away from mixed martial arts (MMA) specifically. However, his head coach John Kavanagh took to Twitter to further add fuel to the fire.
Still, many in the fight game are skeptical and strongly believe "Notorious" is attempting to drive up his purse with his high-profile rematch against Nate Diaz set to serve as the historic UFC 200 pay-per-view (PPV) main event on July 9, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
