Despite McGregor claiming that he will step into the Octagon this summer, there is still no word from the UFC as to whether this is the case. 

The Irish fighter has not been afraid to criticise the organisation and UFC president Dana White about how his return to MMA is being handled. 

But while there may be some tension between McGregor and White, the latter could not help but praise the working relationship he has with the two-weight UFC champion. 

"Conor McGregor has been an incredible partner to work with,” White said in a recent interview before revealing the one problem he has with McGregor. 

"If Conor McGregor showed up to s—t on time, and sometimes he does, sometimes he does, he’d be- he’s been a great partner.”
