“I’d imagine he’ll be home for Christmas and then, you know, we get the band back together… till we get that finalized date. Hopefully, April or around that time,” Roddy added. It will be interesting to see what McGregor has in store for the fans when he comes back after almost three years.

Dana White dismissed Logan Paul’s claim about the Prime Card’s PPV buys

The UFC CEO recently made an appearance on the ‘Full Send’ podcast, where he spoke about Logan Paul and KSI‘s claims about Misfits X DAZN: Prime Card’s 1.3 million PPV buys. Dana White mentioned that he had not heard anybody selling as many PPVs as the Prime Card claims to have sold. Furthermore, he also revealed the truth about selling PPV buys.

“Let me tell you how hard it is to sell 1.3M PPVs buys… If you sold f***ing 700,000 PPV buys, they’d be putting on fights f***ing ten times a year,” said Dana White. He mentioned that when such claims are made, regarding a combat sports event, it is most probably a lie. He added, “When you hear those kinds of numbers fly around the PPV world, they’re lying motherf***ers. Don’t ever believe that sh*t.” We will have to wait and watch how Logan Paul and co. react to these statements made by the 54-year-old promoter.

The UFC’s plans for Khabib Nurmagomedov’s cousin and Michael Page have been leaked

Dana White’s recent ‘Full Send’ appearance took place in the UFC’s War Room. This is where the UFC CEO and the promotion’s matchmakers sit down to set up fights for events. Recently, White made a huge blunder when the upcoming plans for Khabib’s cousin Umar Nurmagomedov and former Bellator fighter Michael Page got leaked.

In the podcast’s video, there was an instance when the camera panned on the War Room’s board, which saw a potential fight between Usman Nurmagomedov and Cory Sandhagen in the works as a main event for February next year. Moreover, another fight between Michael Page and Kevin Holland also seemed to be on the board for UFC 297. Nevertheless, the UFC is yet to announce these fights and we will have to wait and see if this is what the promotion has planned for the aforementioned fighters.
