Getty UFC featherweight champion Conor McGregor stretches during an open workout for UFC 202 at Rocks Lounge at the Red Rock Casino on August 18, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Irish superstar Conor McGregor took aim at the UFC after he was issued a drug test while on a yaht. “Notorious” announced in June that he was retiring from mixed martial arts, however he has remained in the USADA testing pool.
Because of that, he is still subjected to random drug testing as per UFC regulation. Early Friday morning, McGregor tweeted, “What’s going on here @ufc? USADA have just arrived to my yacht this morning for testing? I’ve retired guys! But go on then, I’ll allow them test me. It’s all natural here baby! Forever and always, God Bless. 180km across the Mediterranean Sea tomorrow! LET’S GO!!”
Notorious shared two pictures of the documents he was provided by the testing agents. See below:

Notorious has retired multiple times in the past five years and although he says he’s retired, he’s remains a part of the official UFC rankings.
