He's not happy, rightly so.
Conor McGregor hasn't spoken about Rafael dos Anjos pulling out of UFC 196 due to injury but the UFC's head honcho has revealed how the Dubliner reacted. Dana White spoke to Yahoo Sports this evening and outlined exactly what happened when he broke the news to McGregor. "When we told Conor, he said, 'Come on! This [expletive] guy! Oh my God! He's pulling out?' " White said. "But when we went through the options, he said he'd fight any of them." "I swear to God, he said, 'I'll fight anyone.' He just doesn't give a [expletive]. People talk about this strained relationship between us and Conor, and he has a different style than I've ever seen, but I have never seen anyone like Conor," White continued on Yahoo Sports "The closest was Chuck Liddell, but we've never had one like Conor. You think he's not hurt? But when he says he's going to fight, he's going to fight no matter what." We imagine he was raging alright.Explore more on these topics:
