“Ireland is nuts”.
That was Dana White’s assessment of the UFC World Tour’s stop-off in Dublin.
In a recap video of a memorable day in the Irish capital yesterday, the UFC president reflected on the drama that unfolded as Conor McGregor and Jose Aldo stood before the crowds for a final time on their tour.
And White couldn’t get over the speed of McGregor to nip in front of him to grab the champion’s belt. “I thought, ‘Jesus Christ, this kid’s fast’,” he reflected.
McGregor spoke about the adrenaline he felt being in his home town with the home crowd roar and he also agreed that, yes, he is very fast.
