Lorenzo Fertitta on McGregor: “I never thought when I had a guy who was guaranteed $10 million, that I’d have a problem.”

The UFC made headlines recently when they decided to remove Conor Mcgregor from their landmark UFC 200 card due to a dispute over Conor wanting to forego media obligations which existed in his contract. As the dust settles we are starting to get some details on the dispute from various insiders, one of which being prominent mixed martial arts ref Big John McCarthy. Speaking via his "Lets get it on" podcast John offered some details of a conversation he had with UFC co founder: Lorenzo Fertita "So I talked to Lorenzo Fertita at UFC 197 standing in the back, and we started talking and he said: 'I never thought that when I had a guy who was guaranteed 10 million dollars that I would have a problem'" Big John is a reputable source but as always take any statement with a pinch of salt unless they come from the person themselves.
