With UFC 302 wrapped up, with an amazing back-and-forth main event, the time has come to shed some light on the return of Conor McGregor in the second PPV of June 2024. But ‘The Notorious’ hasn’t looked too serious about fighting Michael Chandler, which was evident from the numerous videos of him partying at his Black Forge Inn pub. But Dana White isn’t ready to believe that it’s true.

As announced, UFC 303’s first press conference will take place in Ireland as the UFC keeps building what could be their biggest fight of the year. Why? Because, in Dana White’s words, the event’s total gate collection has surpassed $20 million – it’s already a financially blockbuster event. But when White turned his attention to responding to McGregor’s partying video, he just shut those talks down.

Dana White can’t figure out what is true and false about Conor McGregor

The UFC has built a wide social media presence through its social media accounts, internet podcasts, and collaborations with content creators. But would you believe it? The 54-year-old still thinks the internet is a shady place. And when it comes to Conor McGregor’s controversial party visuals, he just does not know what to believe.

“I don’t know what’s real on the internet and what’s not real on the internet… I don’t know if any of that’s real or true,” said Dana White at the UFC 302 post-fight presser. He would further mention Conor McGregor’s business acumen and how he would never try to sabotage his upcoming fight with less than a month to go. After all, he claims it to be the biggest comeback ever.
