Almost two weeks after Conor McGregor , the biggest star in his organization, was accused of rape in a civil lawsuit in Ireland, Dana White spoke his first words on the matter, although they were not very conclusive.

Asked about his reaction to McGregor's conviction during the UFC 310 press conference , in the early hours of last Sunday (8), the organization's president dodged the question and preferred not to comment on the matter.

“What do you mean my reaction? If I had something to say I would have said it already,” Dana replied.

Dana White, however, implied that the accusation does not interfere in any way with the relationship between Conor McGregor and the UFC, and that he expects to see the Irishman back in the octagon next year.

“He hasn’t fought here in I don’t know how long. If he does fight, it will be sometime next year,” he concluded.
