Chael Sonnen: Conor McGregor is RETIRED, But Still Rules the UFC!

Описание: "The image of the fighter must live, or the man dies." 🧠 UFC Hall of Famer Chael Sonnen just dropped a truth bomb on the "Notorious" return! While Conor McGregor is flooding social media with training clips and teasing a massive comeback for June 14th (or even the rumored White House card), Chael isn't buying the hype.

According to the "American Gangster," Conor McGregor actually retired the day he pulled out of UFC 303 in 2024. But here is the twist: Sonnen claims McGregor is still the #1 person in the sport in 2026 because he holds something more powerful than a championship belt—the "Mandate of the Masses." 📈

In this video, we break down why McGregor’s popularity makes him untouchable, why his fight with Michael Chandler might be a marketing genius's "phantom," and how Conor manages to stay at the top of the food chain without winning a fight in years.
