Dana White Told To Treat Conor McGregor The Same Way As ‘Baboon’: UFC News: Mark Hunt feels like Dana White has been giving Conor McGregor special treatment regarding the USADA drug test. Conor McGregor was set to fight Michael Chandler at the end of this year. Follow UFC News Updates with InsideSports.IN
The date, venue and timing of the event were yet to be fixed, but Conor has been absent from the octagon for a long time after he injured his leg during his last fight with Dustin Poirier and lost it via TKO. But for Conor to make his return to the octagon, he has to comply with the USADA regulations. He needs to take the drug test six months prior to any of his fights.
But given the current situation, Conor McGregor hasn’t appeared for the test as of now, and with the end date of the test approaching near. It looks like the possibility of a fight between Conor and Michael is very slim.

Treat Conor McGregor The Same Way As ‘Baboon’ Brock Lesnar Amidst Sexual Assault Allegations and USADA Confusion
The Conor McGregor-USADA controversy has rocked the MMA community. That plus the most recent accusations of sexual assault make the Irishman’s return to the octagon at this time exceedingly improbable. The USADA athlete test history has not been updated to reflect the samples provided by “The Notorious.”
If the Irish superstar wanted to compete at UFC 296—the year’s final pay-per-view event—he had until Friday, June 16 to submit his samples. It doesn’t appear likely that he will return this year because the testing agency’s history hasn’t been updated.
Dana White Told To Treat Conor McGregor The Same Way As ‘Baboon’ Brock Lesnar Amidst Sexual Assault Allegations and USADA Confusion
These allegations have surfaced as the Irish superstar is under fire for allegedly sexually assaulting a woman at a recent NBA match when McGregor also occurred to punch the Miami Heat mascot twice and send him to the hospital.
Brock Lesnar, a former UFC heavyweight champion and current WWE star, had one of the most eagerly anticipated comebacks in MMA at UFC 200. ‘The Beast Incarnate’ defeated Mark Hunt over the course of three rounds at the UFC 200 fight card by repeatedly putting him to the ground.
Even though Lesnar prevailed, the match was ruled a no-contest because he tested positive for clomiphene a few days prior to the contest. It appeared at the time that the UFC didn’t want to make a fuss over the situation.
Mark Hunt has posted mentioning the situation on his Twitter handle mentioning, “@danawhite why don’t you give @thenotoriousmma the same exemption u gave that baboon @brock,_.lesnar or whatever this cheating rats insta is. I wonder if the @ufc @danawhite is above the law? What do u guys think?
Mark Hunt believes that if the UFC were actually interested in Conor vs Michael’s fight taking place, then they could waive the drug testing requirements, instead it looks like Conor is being favoured by the UFC management.
