McGregor skipped for White House, targets July return

UFC is reportedly skipping Conor McGregor for the June White House event, opting instead for International Fight Week in July for his return. Ariel Helwani confirmed the decision due to limited revenue from the invite-only White House audience. This prioritizes profitability for McGregor's comeback. It impacts the lightweight and welterweight divisions by delaying his activity. Expect alternative high-profile matchups at White House, with McGregor headlining a lucrative Vegas card.
