Conor McGregor is officially out of UFC 200.

Speaking on ESPN Sports Centre UFC president Dana White confirmed the news.

White said McGregor was pulled by the UFC because he refused to attend the scheduled media in Las Vegas this weekend to instead stay in Iceland and train.

Earlier in the day McGregor had tweeted that he planned on retiring. White wasn’t able to confirm if that was indeed true or not. He did, though, say the UFC were looking for a replacement to fight Nathan Diaz and that another big fight would be added to UFC 200.

At this point, McGregor’s future is still pretty much up in the air.
