John Kavanagh: Conor McGregor is ‘retired’ and ‘I can’t convince Conor to do sh*t’ regarding a comeback

If Conor McGregor is planning a comeback that would be news to his head coach.

John Kavanagh, who has worked with Irish superstar before and during his run in the UFC, says as far as he’s concerned McGregor is abiding by his recent declaration that he’s retired from fighting with no plans to return.

McGregor made the surprise announcement in early June just after UFC 250 came to an end and then later explaining that no fights being offered really interested him enough to compete again.

Since that time, the former two-division UFC champion has stayed relatively quiet with no word on potentially returning to action.
