Former Bellator and ONE champion Ben Askren believes there’s a reason why former two-division UFC titleholder Conor McGregor hasn’t made an octagon return. Askren believes McGregor is ‘an addict.’ “It’s pretty obvious to me that Conor McGregor is an addict,” Askren said on Funky and the Champ podcast. ”He is charismatic enough, rich enough that it doesn’t really have a hugely negative impact on his live so everyone kind of lets him do what he wants to do. “This guy is clearly out partying, can’t show up for a training camp and because he can’t show up at training camp he can’t get ready to fight,” Askren continued
