Mkali wa MMA, Conor McGregor amewashtua mashabiki zake baada ya kutangaza kustaa katika mchezo huo wa mapambano akiwa na umri wa miaka 31.
McGregor became the only man to hold two belts in different weight divisions back in 2016
Mpambanaji huyo wa UFC, kutoka Ireland ametangaza nia hiyo ya kustaafu kupitia akaunti yake ya kijamii ya Twitter hii leo siku ya Jumapili na kuzua gumzo katika mitandao mbalimbali ”Nimeamua kustaafu kupigana.” aliandika McGregor huku akionyesha picha yake akiwa na mama yake huko Las Vegas.
Taarifa hizo za McGregor zimezua gumzo mitandaoni huku wengi wakichukulia kama mzaha tu kutokana na tabia ya nyota huyo kutangaza kustaafu mara kwa mara na kisha kurejea tena kunako ulingo.

However, McGregor, who is estimated to have earned in the region of $100m (£80m) alone from his UFC fights and has a net worth of $110m (£86m), appears to have gone into early retirement.

Hii sio mara ya kwanza kwa nyota huyo kutangaza kustaafu mchezo wa ngumi, mara kadhaa amekuwa akifanya hivyo, inakumbukwa kuwa hata mwaka jana mwezi Machi aliwahi kusema hivyo na baadaye alirejea tena ulingoni.
Kama McGregor atakuwa amekusudia kweli kustaafu basi atakuwa UFC icon, kutokana na mafanikio makubwa aliyopata kutia mchezo huo ikiwemo kuwa mpiganaji pekee wa UFC kumiliki mikanda miwili ya uzito tofauti.

Amecheza jumla ya mapambano 26, ameshinda 22 na kupigwa manne (4) pekee kunako UFC tangu mwaka 2013 alipoanza kuingia ulingoni.
McGregor alivuta fedha nyingi sana alipocheza na Floyd Mayweather katika pambano la mchezo wa Boxing, ambapo aliingiza kiasi cha dola za Kimarekani milioni 100 mwaka 2017.
