Former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor retired again from professional MMA competition shortly after UFC 250, but it appears that the fighter has yet to officially retire.
That’s because the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) recently drug tested McGregor and did so on the fighter's yacht. McGregor revealed that he was recently tested on Twitter:
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 --

USADA can only test UFC fighters is they are active members of the roster, so McGregor, despite announcing said retirement earlier this year, is still considered a member of the UFC roster. There is no word at this time as to whether or not McGregor passed or failed the drug test.
