Dana White calls video of Conor McGregor allegedly punching an old man at a pub ‘pretty bad’

UFC star Conor McGregor is once again in the news for allegedly doing something violent outside of the Octagon.

Shocker, I know.

On Thursday morning TMZ shared a video that appears to show McGregor punching an old man in the head at a pub in Dublin. Apparently this stemmed from a disagreement over whiskey and dates back to last April.

McGregor has had a number of ugly incidents the past few years – including the dolly toss in Brooklyn before UFC 223, breaking a guy’s phone in Miami, and now this.

UFC boss Dana White appeared on ‘The Jim Rome Show’ on Thursday to promote UFC 241 this weekend in Anaheim. When asked about the video, White said he knew of the situation but hadn’t seen the video until it was released by TMZ.

He called it “pretty bad” and talked more about McGregor’s issues:

Here White gets more into McGregor’s behavior and when he’ll stop doing violent stuff like this:

We’ll have to wait and see what this latest incident means for McGregor’s future and if he’ll take any steps to make sure stuff like this stops happening.

Because none if it is a good look for the biggest name in MMA.
