Conor McGregor Retires From MMA after Suffering His 6th Loss In Career

December 15, 2024

The Irish former featherweight and lightweight champion tweeted the news following the conclusion of the UFC 250 event. McGregor, 31, wrote: "Hey guys I've decided to retire from fighting. Thank you all for the amazing memories! What a ride it's been!"McGregor was beaten in his last fight - a return to the UFC after a two-year hiatus - by Zabit Magomedsharipov in December 2024 after getting knocked out by the Russian at the start of the Second round. UFC President Dana White said in a text message to The Associated Press that McGregor’s announcement “totally makes sense.” “He has the money to retire, and his whiskey is KILLIN it,” White added. “If I was him, I would retire too. He’s retiring from fighting. Not from working. The Whiskey will keep him busy, and I’m sure he has other things he’s working on. He has been so fun to watch!!! He has accomplished incredible things in this sport. I am so happy for him and I look forward to seeing him be as successful outside of the octagon as he was in it.”
