LAS VEGAS — Conor McGregor has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons lately.
Earlier this month, he jumped into the Bellator cage in Dublin to celebrate with a teammate, leading to a heated physical confrontation with referee Marc Goddard and McGregor slapping a Bellator employee. And just this week, McGregor was the subject of rumors about an altercation in a Dublin bar involving Irish mobsters.
UFC president Dana White broke his silence Tuesday at a media lunch about McGregor’s antics. On the latter, White does not believe the reports out of Ireland that McGregor is involved with criminals and roughing up people in bars.
