Pereira supported McGregor's decision

UFC bantamweight champion Alex Pereira commented on Conor McGregor's decision to withdraw from his fight against Michael Chandler due to a broken pinky finger.

"I can't judge - whether Conor should have fought or not. He's at a stage in his life now where he's already been able to support himself financially. Maybe if I had to be in his shoes, I wouldn't fight as well. It's hard to go into the octagon with a broken pinky. It's hard for me to judge people in situations like this," BJ Penn quoted Pereira as saying.
