UFC insider tries to understand Dana White and Conor McGregor’s interviews

During a Recent YouTube Video, UFC’s Chael Sonnen dived into the talk that’s been “The Talk” of the MMA community right now, which is Conor McGregor’s return. The “Irishman” and Dana White have different takes on the fights, it was not surprising to see Sonnen jump in to give his take.

In the video, the “Bad Guy” stated, “Dana then does an interview and he was part of Kamaru and Henry Cejudo’s new show. And Dana was very consistent. He was very polite. It seemed like Dana liked the idea of Conor coming back seems he likes Conor’s attitude. He did comment ‘Conor is very busy right now’. He defended him, said Conor’s got movie obligations and he’s just tied up. Instead in addition to that, he’s got a lot of money and his drive to fight is- it just changes. and that’s nothing new, right? Like we’ve heard Dana say that many times.”

Sonnen states that he’s sharing the two statements because he believes that it doesn’t go together. The reason, as per Sonnen, is that neither Connor McGregor nor Dana White was pointing fingers at each other. Nobody being upset with one another apparently seems to be the situation that seems to be adding to the “confusion” among the MMA community. He would then go on to explain if he really thinks a fight is being made for McGregor’s return.

Around the end of the episode, “The Bad Guy” proceeds to give his take on whether the fight between McGregor and Michael Chandler has actually been signed. Given his analysis of the whole situation, he would come to a conclusion that would disappoint most MMA fans.

Sonnen in his YouTube video, stated, “I can clearly tell you, after watching Dana [White] speak to Kamaru Usman and Henry Cejudo. There is no about agreement sign there is no bout agreement offer. There is no dates in place. I can also tell you that Conor [McGregor] appears to sincerely believe that he’s fighting Chandler this summer.”
