‘I Don’t Like That’ – Dana White Talks About Conor McGregor Taking Shots at Dustin Poirier’s Wife

When Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier faced each other at UFC 257, they were both very cordial towards each other. However, all that changed leading up to their trilogy fight at UFC 264. Both fighters did not miss any opportunity to take a dig at each other. During the buildup to the fight, McGregor even took various shots at Poirier’s wife.

The third fight between ‘Notorious’ and Poirier was deemed to be one of the best fights of the year. And although the fight lasted just one round, it was entertaining till that time. Both fighters got into the fight straight away and did not look to back down even one bit.

Ultimately ‘The Diamond’ won the fight after McGregor’s leg snapped as he was trying to take a step back. After the fight, Poirier said that the leg snap happened because of the kicks he hit earlier in the fight. However, McGregor completely discarded that claim and went to take shots at Poirier’s wife during the post-fight interview.

During the post-fight press conference, they asked Dana White about the same. White shared his views about what he thinks about fighters taking digs at each other’s families. While talking about McGregor taking shots at Poirier’s wife during the post-fight interview.
