What was said
"He obviously has to take accountability. I seen something, he came out and he was like, his father—he blamed his father. You have to take accountability, my man. I'm not going to go deeper. I don't want to go into it. It's not my business. And for the sake of his family and his children, his new child born, I hope he comes right."
In an interview before the UFC 313 press conference, Conor McGregor addressed recent controversies surrounding rival Dustin Poirier, criticizing him for allegedly blaming his father rather than taking personal responsibility. McGregor, who has dealt with his own public issues, demonstrated detailed knowledge of Poirier's situation including the recent birth of his child, showing the champion still closely follows his rivals.
