Dana White has an idea for what Conor McGregor could have done instead of smashing out a window of a bus carrying UFC fighters.
The UFC president understands that McGregor doesn’t get along with lightweight contender Khabib Nurmagomedov. In fact, Nurmagomedov’s altercation with teammate and friend Artem Lobov earlier this week is one of the main reasons why McGregor traveled to Brooklyn in the first place. McGregor wanted to retaliate against the Russian, according to MMAFighting.com’s Ariel Helwani.
But White suggested in a media scrum Thursday after the McGregor debacle that the Irish superstar should have simply offered to fight Nurmagomedov in the Octagon — not from outside a bus taking UFC 223 fighters back to the host hotel.
