Conor McGregor and Dana White share a great relationship. Both men have made each other a lot of money. Generally, the UFC President can’t pick sides when ‘The Notorious’ is fighting any other UFC superstar. However, for his bout against Floyd Mayweather, White was all McGregor leading up to the fight.

The UFC co-promoted the mega boxing bout between the two biggest PPV draws in combat sports history. The historic May-Mac bout had a grand world tour.

“You know he’s got three,” White replied and look to elaborate, but McGregor cut him off. “Oh, yeah, yeah. You know what else he got?” asked McGregor and answered, “Tax Problems, that’s what he’s got.”
