Dana White continued to go off on the subject and he made it clear he didn't like the question. The UFC President has had enough of people being upset with the subject of Conor McGregor.
“It’s a dumb fucking question for the media to ask, but the media asks dumb fucking shit all day, every day,” White continued. “That’s what happens. And anybody who’s pissed off because Conor might fucking get (a title shot), you’re a fucking idiot too. If that pisses you off, Jesus Christ. Calm down, buddy.”
Conor McGregor's future is still up in the air despite Dana White getting frustrated with the questions. The UFC's lightweight division has plenty of contenders and many fun fights to make for the future.
