Conor McGregor speaks out on Bryce Mitchell's pro-Adolf Hitler comments as Dana White brands it 'disgusting'

Conor McGregor has posted a lengthy message on social media in response to Bryce Mitchell's controversial Adolf Hitler claim.

UFC fighter Mitchell denied the holocaust happened and took aim at both the LGBTQ+ and Jewish communities during the first episode of his podcast.

He also defended German dictator Hitler in a shocking rant that was condemned by Dana White, who called it 'beyond disgusting'.

"I've heard a lot of dumb and ignorant sh*t said over the years, but this is probably the worst," he said in a press conference in Saudi Arabia. "First of all, when you talk about Hitler, he was responsible for the death of 6 million Jews and it was his intent to completely eliminate Jewish people. And that's a guy you would want to go fishing with?"

UFC middleweight title challenger Sean Strickland shared his thoughts on Mitchell's Hitler comments with a social media post.

And McGregor has also weighed in on the UFC featherweight's remark.

The Irishman called for peace and freedom, referencing multiple conflicts in the world.

On X, he wrote: "Saying a prayer for my God fearing brother Bryce Mitchell tonight who I know is a good man. Let this be acknowledgement/confirmation of the rise in antisemitic commentary, as well as all sorts of other bullsh*t, phobic, racist commentary, that spreads feverishly and instantly across the world wide web where we, as curious beings, are brainwashed into all sorts of thinking. For what ? For one reason and one reason only. Human division.We say NO!

"All Nations and their people deserve freedom! Humans under God deserve Peace and Freedom and I, like Jesus did for us, would give my heart, body and soul for it! From Palestine to Jerusalem, Israel to Ukraine, Germany to Africa! Russia to Ireland to England to America to Iran. Egypt. Sweden! FREEDOM!

"Peace in the mother f**king world because F**K THESE ROBOTS, WE ARE HUMAN! HUMANS UNDER GOD FOR THE WIN! GOD SAYS DONT HARM HIS CHILDREN SO NOW NEVER NO MORE! Please God, earth! Let’s go! We have got this! PEACE PEACE FROM, THE CHAMP CHAMP."

Mitchell, 30, has been with the UFC since 2018 when he made his promotional debut against Tyler Diamond.

He won six UFC fights in a row before succumbing to Ilia Topuria at UFC 282.

The American hasn't fought since his victory over Kron Gracie at last month's UFC 310.
