If Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier want to fight, the UFC appears willing to make it happen.
After the lightweights essentially agreed to meet in a bout in Ireland for charity, UFC President Dana White said on Wednesday that the promotion has reached out with offers to both fighters.
According to White, he still hasn’t personally spoken to McGregor since he engaged in a back-and-forth war of words with the Irish superstar after he posted screenshots of past conversations between them about possible fights and opponents.
That said, White definitely seems interested in booking McGregor in a matchup against Poirier while adding that rumors about a potential boxing match with Manny Pacquiao have been greatly exaggerated.
