Slipping into our screens from a restaurant, with a glass of wine in hand, the notorious McGregor wasted no time in capturing our attention.

After all, this man has achieved UFC titles in not just one, but two weight classes: 145 pounds and 155 pounds.
However, it's been a while since we last saw the Irish fighter in action. McGregor's last fight was way back in 2021, where he unfortunately experienced a TKO loss against Dustin Poirier. But setbacks have never dampened McGregor's spirit. If anything, he thrives on challenges and adversity. And now, he's ready to make his triumphant return.

According to him, the bout will take place during International Fight Week and will be contested in the middleweight (185-pound) class. The anticipation is palpable as we imagine the fireworks that are sure to explode once these two formidable opponents step into the cage.
Adding to the excitement, McGregor and Chandler have previously faced off as coaches on 'The Ultimate Fighter' television series. The dynamic and rivalry between these two fighters has only fueled the anticipation for their upcoming showdown. Chandler couldn't help but respond to McGregor's announcement on social media, expressing his desire to face McGregor at his biggest, baddest, and, in Chandler's words, 185 pounds.
One can only speculate about the strategies and mind games that will be played out in the lead-up to this clash of titans. With McGregor's unyielding determination and Chandler's hunger for victory, we can expect nothing less than an awe-inspiring spectacle that will leave the world on the edge of their seats.
