T.J. Dillashaw: Conor McGregor ‘not doing anything wrong’ by pulling out of USADA testing pool

Former UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw agrees with Conor McGregor’s decision to remove himself from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency testing pool.

McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC), who broke his leg in a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021, has not been tested in 2022. The way he looks bulked up right now has raised questions, but Dillashaw thinks McGregor made the right decision for his recovery.

McGregor would have to re-enter the pool and complete six months of testing before he’s eligible to compete again. So as long as his results come back clean in that time period, Dillashaw doesn’t care if McGregor has or hasn’t been using performance-enhancing drugs in his time away.
