Conor McGregor Posts DMs from UFC's Dana White Discussing Tony Ferguson Fight

Retired MMA star Conor McGregor took to Twitter on Friday to post screenshots of a DM conversation he had with UFC President Dana White in February regarding a fight with Tony Ferguson.

In the DM exchange, McGregor said he wanted to fight in Los Angeles in May and also said he didn't want to be a "step in" for UFC 249 in case either Tony Ferguson or Khabib Nurmagomedov had to pull out of their scheduled fight (warning: contains profanity):
