UFC fighter Conor McGregor announced on Twitter Tuesday that he had “decided to retire young.”

I have decided to retire young.

Thanks for the cheese.

Catch ya’s later.

— Conor McGregor (@TheNotoriousMMA)

Wait, what?

The 27-year-old is slated to face Nate Diaz at UFC 200 on July 9 in Las Vegas. It would be a rematch of their UFC 196 bout in which Diaz won via rear-naked choke late in the second round.

Nothing has been posted on McGregor’s official Facebook page.

In response, Diaz also tweeted that he’s “retiring too.”

I guess my work here is done I’m retiring tooâ ï¸

What does this mean? Is it even true? Everything is all speculation now. More to come with this story.
