A $500K Charity Donation Dispute, a Load of Insults and One Notorious Conor McGregor

It seems the good will that was shared between Conor McGregor and Dustin Poirier seems to be gone as the buildup to their upcoming trilogy bout at UFC 264 has turned ugly. Read what happened and how it could be a benefit for Conor McGregor.

A breakdown of the $500k donation dispute

On Sunday, Poirier revealed on Twitter that the $500,000 donation promised to his charity organisation, “The Good Fight Foundation” by Team McGregor was never received.

Back in January, after Poirier’s TKO victory over the Irishman at UFC 257, Conor McGregor intended to pay the $500,000 as Audie Attar, McGregor’s manager, even confirmed that the payment had been made.
