Conor McGregor posted minutes ago on his Twitter saying “I have decided to retire young. Thanks for the cheese. Catch ya’s later.”.

It seems unlikely that McGregor will call it a day on his career with a big money rematch lined up for UFC 200 with Nate Diaz set for July.

It could a negotiation tactic or that he has set a time in the not too distant future for retirement or maybe he is just winding everyone up.

Update: Ariel Helwani is now reporting that sources are telling him that this retirement tweet is legitimate

McGregor’s coach John Kavanagh has also commented via twitter on the tweet:

Owner/Editor of SevereMMA.com. Writer, Podcaster, Producer of 'Notorious: Conor McGregor' film, 'Conor McGregor: Notorious' TV series, 'Ten Thousand Hours', 'The Fighting Irish' and more documentary films.
