Dana White Guarantees Conor McGregor Won't Have Another UFC Fight in 2020

UFC President Dana White said Monday that former featherweight and lightweight champion Conor McGregor won't fight for the remainder of 2020.

White explained on Barstool Sports' My Mom's Basement podcast (via ESPN's Marc Raimondi) that he's taken McGregor's June Twitter post about retirement at face value, at least for the rest of the year.

"This year, he is retired," White said. "He doesn't have a fight this year, and he won't have a fight this year. Conor McGregor will not fight in 2020. ... I guarantee he will not fight in 2020.
