Former UFC lightweight and featherweight champion Conor McGregor and UFC President Dana White are currently not seeing eye-to-eye. Last week McGregor, seemingly frustrated by what opportunities he was presented within the Octagon this year, decided to leak screenshots of what he claimed were private messages between him and White.
Those messages detailed vague negotiations over who McGregor could have fought in the first half of 2020. Those messages reveal that McGregor was not happy with the suggestion that he be a ready-to-go replacement fighter for the bout between Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov that was scheduled, and ultimately canceled, earlier this year.
