Retired UFC vet: Dana White throwing a fit over Conor McGregor drama

More and more current fighters on the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) roster seem to be siding with Conor McGregor for the stance he took with his employer for refusing to drop everything and travel across the globe for a 30-minute press conference.

It's a bold move that ultimately cost him his headlining spot against Nate Diaz at UFC 200 on July 9, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
