As reported by Aaron Bronsteter of TSN Sports, McGregor is the only active fighter on the UFC roster -- other than fighters signed after August 1st -- who's yet to be tested by USADA this year. A former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion, Conor McGregor is recovering from the gruesome leg injury he suffered in his last fight in July 2021. He's reportedly targeting a return to the octagon, potentially at lightweight or welterweight, in February/March 2023. Addressing Bronsteter's report, USADA suggested that McGregor and other athletes in the USADA testing pool are sometimes granted exemptions from testing on a case-by-case basis. Aaron Bronsteter@aaronbronsteterAfter cross-referencing the entire active UFC roster with USADA's athlete test history database, I found that Conor McGregor was the lone active fighter, (aside from some athletes who signed after Aug. 1) to not be tested by USADA.tsn.ca/ufc-star-conor…1713210After cross-referencing the entire active UFC roster with USADA's athlete test history database, I found that Conor McGregor was the lone active fighter, (aside from some athletes who signed after Aug. 1) to not be tested by USADA.tsn.ca/ufc-star-conor… Aaron Bronsteter@aaronbronsteterMcGregor's team and the UFC declined comment.USADA provided TSN with the following statement:21120McGregor's team and the UFC declined comment.USADA provided TSN with the following statement: https://t.co/7iNSS6BwXU Speaking of which, some fans are now accusing UFC president Dana White and USADA of knowingly letting Conor McGregor use banned PEDs (Performance Enhancing Drugs). Some of the enraged fans' tweets have been displayed below: "McGregor is living proof, Dana White has control of Usada. Hes given him an excemption. Conor has been doing GH, and oral anabolics for quite some time now, also blood doping. its hilarious actually."

One fan speculated that McGregor has probably retired, which is why he isn't being tested, but the UFC won't publicly announce it as his departure could adversely affect the organization's stock price. Others accused McGregor of using HGH (Human Growth Hormone) and other PEDs: "He would be blasting hgh to help repair the broken bone" "conor gotta be juiced out his mind lad" Simon Czura@_fettest_@aaronbronsteter The good old cash cow privileges.117@aaronbronsteter The good old cash cow privileges.

Bronsteter replied by revealing that Weidman has indeed been tested four times in 2022: "Has Chris Weidman been tested? Wondering because he's out with same type of injury." "Yes, four samples in 2022" Henri Kärkkäinen@HenriOssian@aaronbronsteter Has Chris Weidman been tested?

While the Irishman is known for his fiery replies on social media, he responded to Marenic's tweet in a harmonious and classy manner. Matt Marenic@MattMarenic@TheNotoriousMMA What are you using? I want some of that ?581@TheNotoriousMMA What are you using? I want some of that ? Conor McGregor emphasized that he's simply using the Proper Twelve Irish Whiskey brand that he represents, alongside his 'Forged Irish Stout,' beef, and TIDL recovery products.
