(This story originally published over at usatoday.com .) We know a lot about what Conor McGregor hasn’t been doing recently, and what he won’t be doing in the near future. According to UFC President Dana White, McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) won’t be boxing after his August defeat to Floyd Mayweather , not against Manny Pacquiao nor anyone else. McGregor is not cheating on the mother of his young child with British pop star Rita Ora, who Tweeted about their “date night” last week, at least not according to several social media posts that saw him cozying up to fiancee Dee Devlin with a cart of luxury shopping bags in tow. McGregor is not fighting on the end-of-year UFC 219 card in Las Vegas that he was originally slated for after discussions were halted due to McGregor’s aggressive conduct while watching a friend take part in a Bellator event in Ireland last month. Related Floyd Mayweather claims he could rematch Conor McGregor in UFC for $1 billion And, given that the British and Irish tabloids are salivating as the 29-year-old seemingly bounces from one bout of partying to the next, he’s presumably not particularly close to being in fighting shape any time soon
