Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) president Dana White isn’t afraid to lawyer up should negotiations between Manny Pacquiao and Conor McGregor hold true.
Late last week, a report surfaced claiming that future boxing Hall of Famer Pacquiao opened talks for a bout with McGregor. The report noted that both fighters were targeting the match-up for April 2018.
When asked about the legitimacy of the report, White delivered a warning (via MMAFighting.com):
“That would be weird because he’s under contract with us. If that’s true, I will be suing Manny Pacquiao and whoever’s representing him, so I’m assuming that’s not true. Yes, [Conor’s next fight is in the UFC].”
