#3. Dana White provides update on Conor McGregor's UFC return

Conor McGregor has not yet submitted a sample to USADA and was spotted at a rival combat sports promotion's event drinking whiskey from the bottle. However, Dana White says he is doing his part to prepare for the return.

Speaking to the media after Saturday's UFC Fight Night event, Dana White confirmed that McGregor is in the process of getting back into the USADA pool for the fight with Michael Chandler after TUF 31:

"There is a fight. Well, he has to get into the USADA pool first. He's filling out the paperwork. I don't know how soon that will be done or what's going on with that. That's his business that he's handling with USADA. But it's all in motion."

As for a timeline for the fight, White said it is being targeted for the annual November visit to Madison Square Garden in New York or the pay-per-view card in December.

Check out White's comments in the tweet shared by Jed I. Goodman below:

White spoke extensively on the Fight Night card, praising the headliners Mackenzie Dern and Angela Hill for their all-out performances. He also said that Kamaru Usman visited the UFC office lobbying for a fight with Khamzat Chimaev.

#2. Ebanie Bridges offers free OnlyF*ns subscriptions to Leeds United players

Australian boxer Ebanie Bridges is ready to offer some unconventional help to motivate Leeds United. The English Premier League club is facing potential relegation, which means that they might fall down a division in the league system for the next season.

In a recent interview with talkSPORT, the IBF female bantamweight champion put some X-rated offers on the table to motivate the players:

"Hey guys, if you stay up I'll flash my b**bs. I'll get in that locker room, pull my shirt up and flash my boobs or something like that. I'll kiss you, anything. Whatever, I'll give you a free subscription to my OnlyF*ns. Please Leeds stay up, don't f**king disappoint me."

Bridges was recently spotted at the Katie Taylor vs. Chantelle Cameron boxing event posing with UFC megastar Conor McGregor. Their pictures sparked some NSFW reactions from the fans as well.

#1. Francis Ngannou's PFL deal does not make sense: Dana White

True to his character, Dana White was dismissive of Francis Ngannou's new deal with the PFL while speaking on the matter. He massively downplayed the magnitude of the collaboration, which will reportedly make 'The Predator' the highest-paid heavyweight in the sport of MMA.

White said:

"Based on what I know about the deal, which is not much, it makes no sense to me. You're going to pay a guy not to fight for a year and it's already been like 18 months, he's fought three times in the last three years."

Watch White's comments below:

The UFC president added that Ngannou has unrealistic expectations from his foray into boxing and that it would not be another 'McGregor-Mayweather' affair. He also criticized PFL's business strategy and made fun of the rumors that the promotion is trying to buy Bellator MMA with funding from the Middle East.
