As for how McGregor feels about his belt being taken ...

"Conor understand. Conor made a lot of money. He wants some time off. But the division has to go on and the business has to go on" White said.

White also addressed the rumors of a Floyd Mayweather-Mcgregor rematch, this time in the octagon.

"The only way a rematch makes sense is that fight is in the UFC," White said.

He went on to confirmed the two sides are talking. But he seemed skeptical there would be a deal anytime soon.

"Anything is possible, I just don't think Floyd needs the money now."
