Dana White Visits Conor McGregor’s Club Amid Rumors of Tension Between Them

Dana White and Conor McGregor 

When it comes to the UFC, drama seems to follow like a shadow. Lately, rumors have been swirling about tension between Dana White and Conor McGregor. And the plot just thickened in the most unexpected way as the UFC CEO visited his star athlete’s pub.

White recently took a little Irish vacation to Ireland, and the man made a beeline for McGregor’s pride and joy – The Black Forge Inn. This isn’t just any old pub; it’s the UFC star’s award-winning establishment in Dublin.

White didn’t just pop in for a quick pint and dash. He went full tourist mode and even posed for a photo with Liam Flynn, the pub’s manager. The pub’s Instagram account couldn’t resist sharing the moment. They posted a snap of White and Flynn looking chummy together.

The rumors about some friction between Dana White and Conor McGregor stemmed from ‘The Notorious’s’ recent comments about not getting a UFC date. He was adamant about fighting in December of this year but White had other plans and pushed it to the next year. The Irishman asked the help of Turki Alalshikh to mediate and get him a date.

This little back-and-forth about the fight business seemed to have strained the relationship between the two. Although neither of them has said anything, it remains to be seen what the next step in their interaction will be.

Conor McGregor Reveals That He Is “Out Of The Loop” After Chandler-Oliveira Announcement

‘The Notorious,’ known for his sharp wit and even sharper left hand, recently found himself in an unusual position. McGregor’s been itching to get back into the octagon. He’s been training, he’s been testing, and he’s been waiting. The former two-division champ claims he’s ready to rumble, but the UFC seems to be giving him the cold shoulder.

Here’s where things get interesting. McGregor was supposed to face Michael Chandler at UFC 303 in July. But a broken toe put those plans on ice. Now Chandler’s moved on, booking a rematch with Charles Oliveira at UFC 309. Conor McGregor revealed that he was out of the loop and he seem perplexed about it.

“I’m just out of the loop with it, you know? All I can do is carry on, doing what I’m doing. I test under the testing administration, I train daily, and that’s it. Let’s see what happens. Hopefully, it all comes to fruition,” said McGregor at the BKFC 66 post-fight press conference.

Conor McGregor further claimed that he is the most tested athlete on the UFC roster. Yet, he can’t seem to nail down a fight date. He has two fights left on his UFC contract, but he’s struggling to get even one booked!
