Conor McGregor is back for “The Ultimate Fighter 31,” but has allegedly caused a stir behind the scenes.
McGregor, who is coaching opposite Michael Chandler in the upcoming season of ‘TUF’ which is currently filming in Las Vegas, was accused of removing fighters already in the contestant pool to replace them with fighters from his own stable.
Well-known MMA manager Daniel Rubenstein and UFC middleweight Chris Curtis were among those who publicly stated McGregor influenced the casting, although the former two-division UFC champion denied the claim.
