Dana White breaks silence on Conor McGregor’s partying ahead of huge UFC 303 clash with Michael Chandler

DANA WHITE has had his say on Conor McGregor’s apparent partying ahead of his UFC return.

The MMA superstar is set to make his long-awaited cage comeback against Michael Chandler later this month in the main event of UFC 303 in Las Vegas.

But the Irishman has raised eyebrows by attending two wild parties at his Black Forge Inn pub in as many weeks.

Footage of the 35-year-old living his best life has fight fans around the world concerned, but not White.

The UFC’s CEO and president said on Sunday morning: “I don’t know what’s real on the internet and what’s not real on the internet.

“I don’t know timing-wise. In one of them he’s got a beard, in one of them he doesn’t have a beard.

“I have no idea, I don’t know if any of that is real or true or whatever.”

Despite videos appearing to show McGregor burning the candle at both ends, the Dubliner wasn’t actually seen having a drink.

And White doesn’t believe The Notorious would be so stupid as to have a proper bender so close to one of the biggest fights of his career.

The veteran promoter added: “Conor is not a dumb guy and this is obviously a big fight for him.

“He’s calling it the best comeback in the history of sports and all of that stuff. So we’ll see what happens.”

White may not be concerned about McGregor’s antics, but MMA fans are concerned the fight may fall through.

McGregor, Chandler and White were all due to take part in a pre-fight press conference in Dublin on Monday evening.

But the presser ended up being postponed a mere 12 hours before it was due to take place.

A UFC statement read: “The #UFC303 press conference scheduled for Monday, June 3rd in Dublin, Ireland at 3Arena has been postponed until further notice.

“We sincerely apologize to all the fans who were planning to attend.

“When we have further information on a new date and time, we will share it immediately. – Thank you.”

Former two-division champion McGregor hasn’t set foot inside the octagon since breaking his left leg in his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier nearly three years ago.
