Commentator and podcast host, Joe Rogan is not convinced about Conor McGregor’s retirement.
UFC 250 was an action-packed event. The card delivered some spectacular finishes, including Sean O’ Malley’s walk-off KO, Aljamain Sterling’s excellent ground game, Cody Garbrandt’s second-round knockout of Raphael Assuncao, and Amanda Nunes’ dominating win over Felicia Spencer.
It had plenty of moments to talk about. However, McGregor—who wasn’t even fighting at UFC 250—stole the show. The “Notorious” made the headlines after announcing his retirement.

Is this the end for Conor McGregor?
No! According to Joe Rogan, McGregor is seeking attention.
“I don’t buy it for a second. I think Conor McGregor is trying to get you to talk about it and he just did. What better way to get people to talk about him when there is a spectacular fight, filled with people dominating. What he did was sort of hijack the whole situation and say he’s retired. I’m not buying it,” Joe Rogan said during the post-fight interview with ESPN.
