It appears that the once healthy relationship between UFC President Dana White and former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor has soured.
McGregor recently leaked private direct messages between himself and White, which according to White, is something you just don’t do.
“Listen, I’ve had people blowing me up left and right,” White said to MMA Junkie. “Everybody here knows, even the ladies. This is some man code stuff, you know? It’s just something you don’t do. It’s one of the dirtiest things you can do.”
The leaked messages between White and McGregor were mostly about McGregor, who retired a short time after UFC 250, trying to negotiate a fight with a multitude of opponents. It wouldn’t take long for McGregor to respond to White’s comments, which McGregor did via Twitter:
Code was broke when you lied about me turning down fights mate. I said Justin in May and you went and said I did not want to fight. It’s not about Diego. Diego was a filler to get more fights in.

Also you have been involved in Manny talks the legal letters are there.
Stop lying.
There is no word yet on when McGregor may return to the UFC, but it seems like we are getting closer to seeing McGregor return to the boxing ring instead of the Octagon. McGregor may be fighting Manny Pacquiao at a yet to be determined date.
