Dana White
I talked to Conor yesterday or the day before and he's ready to fight. I said, 'Listen, get in shape, let's figure this out. Yeah yeah, he's fighting Chandler.
McGregor, 35, last stepped into the octagon in the summer of 2021 against Dustin Poirier in the main event of UFC 264. Conor lost by technical knockout because he was unable to continue due to a broken leg. He has 22 wins and six losses on his record.
Chandler, 37, fought Dustin Poirier at UFC 281 in November 2022. In this fight, Michael was defeated by a choking submission in the third round. He has 23 wins and eight losses on his record.
