Former UFC lightweight and featherweight champion Conor McGregor has taken a new turn in his current standoff with UFC president Dana White. McGregor and White have taken swipes at one another from afar over the past several days, with McGregor leaking DMs from White which detailed his thoughts about potential fights over the rest of the year, while White took umbrage with private conversations going public. Monday, McGregor went on a Twitter tangent which began by jumping into the replies of an ESPN tweet, but then took a turn. “The Notorious” invited former UFC interim lightweight champion Dustin Poirier , who recently ran into a dead end attempting to get better pay from White in order to fight Tony Ferguson, to fight and donate the proceeds to charity, with no promotional involvement from the UFC. Hey bro! You want to do an MMA charity fight? Zero to do with the ufc
