Conor McGregor told he is "done" as he is no longer dedicated to fighting

Conor McGregor has been told he is "done" and no longer dedicated to his MMA career after suffering two back-to-back losses.

The former two-weight world champion has struggled to remain active and consistent since he won his second belt back in 2016, fighting just four times in the octagon since. He made a huge sum of money when he faced Floyd Mayweather in a crossover boxing fight, before topping the list of highest-paid athletes last year when he sold the majority stake in his whiskey company.

And all of this financial success, years after his greatest sporting successes took place, has cost McGregor dearly in the cage, according to former professional fighter Josh Thomson. During the latest episode of his podcast Weighing In, Thomson declared that the Irishman will never be a champion again due to losing his edge.
