Conor McGregor has reacted to the UFC refusing to do Pride Nights, and what he said is pretty surprising.
Dana White shared his thoughts during an interview with Tomi Lahren on why the promotion does not host these themed events like the NBA, NHL, and MLB do.
Dana made it clear that everyone is welcome, but they will not be holding a special night.
Dana said, “I’m staring at my roster of top 15. I’m assuming we have some fighters who prefer men. I don’t know how many are open. I know that we have some female fighters who like women. I don’t care what you are, who you are, what you do, we don’t talk about that, any of that stuff.”
Dana explained that his industry is completely different to others that support this, so he prefers to stay in his lane.
He also mentioned being a huge supporter of free speech, even when his athletes say wild things. He said that the bottom line for the company is that everyone should just do their own thing.
Now Conor has added his two cents in a comment under a post about it that said, “As it should be.”
Personally, I felt like this was a pretty surprising thing to say, and it’s definitely going to cause a lot of controversy.
Before you go, I wanna know, do you agree with Dana?
