"The worst conversation we've ever had. It's not that I don't think he understood what happened, it's that he justified it...'This had to be done.'Prior to this interview, White called the bus attack incident 'the most disgusting thing that has ever happened' in the UFC. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/982859564407316480
"We talked yesterday. It's good. I think there's a mutual respect between us. I had so many things thrown at me this week, to focus on this show was insane. We'll get back and we'll focus on Conor McGregor."White also denied the rumours that McGregor showed up to Brooklyn to talk business. According to the president, McGregor's only business in the Big Apple was with the man who has since been crowned lightweight king.
"He didn't come to New York to do anything with me. He jumped on a plane with those guys to come to New York for the Khabib thing. That's not true. He came to New York for Khabib. He didn't come here to meet me. I didn't even know Conor was here. There were a couple of guys at the press conference that were acting like they knew something like he was coming here. So no, I didn't know anything about him coming here."
