I have decided to retire young.
Thanks for the cheese.
Catch ya’s later.
When no follow-up message arrived it appeared that McGregors claim could well be genuine, and White later said McGregor had been pulled from UFC 200 his keenly anticipated rematch with Diaz because of a reluctance to promote the fight.
A story on UFCs official website said: McGregor informed UFC officials that he would not participate in any promotional activities, including a commercial shoot and press conferences.
McGregor signed for the rematch with Diaz last month in the wake of his shock defeat on 5 March his first loss in the UFC when he was choked into submission.
Diaz did not appear to take McGregors Tweet seriously, writing: I guess my work here is done, Im retiring too although that was sent before Whites statement.
