Crazy things have been happening in the UFC lately.
Recently, the Irish Fighter Conor McGregor has announced that he has decided to โretire youngโ from UFC, catching many UFC fans off-guard and surprised.
I have decided to retire young.
Thanks for the cheese.
Catch ya's later.— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA) April 19, 2016
McGregorโs tweet was met with skepticism since has been no official announcement whether it’s true or not. But thatโs not all thatโs surprising: Nate Diaz has ALSO announced retirement on twitter, saying that his โwork here is doneโ
I guess my work here is done I'm retiring tooโ๐ผ๏ธ๐๐ผ

Could this just be Nate’s joking response to McGregor? Or is it a legit announcement of retirement? no one is sure.
However, there might be some truth behind McGregorโs announcement since UFC has announced that the Diaz-McGregor rematch was pulled from UFC 200. But according to reports, McGregor was pulled from the match because he failed to appear in a press conference.
BREAKING NEWS: UFC pulls @TheNotoriousMMA from #UFC200. @danawhite on @SportsCenter now.

After a huge win for Diaz and a schedule rematch between the two fighter, nothing seem to add up. While we’re still making sense of all this development, what do you think? Is this all a ruse or is it real?
