CONOR MCGREGOR has released a lengthy statement about his ‘retirement’.

Behold, our feelings…

I am just trying to do my job and fight here.

I am paid to fight. I am not yet paid to promote.
I have become lost in the game of promotion and forgot about the art of fighting.

50 world tours, 200 press conferences, 1 million interviews, 2 million photo shoots, and at the end of it all I’m left looking down the barrel of a lens, staring defeat in the face, thinking of nothing but my incorrect fight preparation. And the many distractions that led to this.

Nothing else was going through my mind.
It is time to go back and live the life that got me this life.

Sitting in a car on the way to some dump in Conneticut [sic] or somewhere, to speak to Tim and Suzie on the nobody gives a fuck morning show did not get me this life.

Talking to some lady that deep down doesn’t give a fuck about what I’m doing, but just wants some sound bites so she can maybe get her little tight ass….

… tight little ass…

…. a nice raise and I’m cool with that too, I’ve been giving you all raises.

But I need to focus on me now.
I’m coming for my revenge here.
I flew an entire team to Portugal and to Iceland… fix my errors…
right adjustments… finish what I started in that last fight…… went and tripled… all with one tweet….

….cannot dance for you this time… maybe I’ll hit Cabo… time to be selfish… no distractions…

I AM NOT RETIRED.

I AM NOT RETIRED.

(Wait, this means more McGregor fights?)
