DANA WHITE has revealed the one bad thing about Conor McGregor – and even the UFC legend was left laughing.

And much of that is down to his working relationship and business dealings with UFC president White.
White has always spoken highly of McGregor’s accomplishments in and out of the octagon.
But he admitted his poor time keeping – for example showing up to press conferences late – is the only problem he has with the former champion.
He told Lex Fridman: “There’s literally no ugly. Conor McGregor has been an incredible partner to work with.
If Conor showed up to things on time there wouldn’t be one f****** bad thing I could say about Conor, you know what I mean?
“If you put a gun to my f****** head, right, and said, ‘Don’t lie, motherf*****, tell me all the bad things about Conor McGregor’.
“I’d say the guy doesn’t show up on time. That’s it.
“If Conor McGregor showed up to s*** on time, and sometimes he does, he’d be [great], he’s been a great partner.”
McGregor, 35, found the funny side of it as he shared the clip on Instagram accompanied with two laughing face emojis.
The Irishman has not fought since July 2021 when he broke his leg in round one against Dustin Poirier, 35.
But he has teased that his eagerly-anticipated return fight – set to be against Michael Chandler – has been agreed for the summer.
