UFC veterans Michael Chandler and Conor McGregor were scheduled to fight at UFC 303, but McGregor’s injury canceled the match. The match was supposed to be a comeback debut for McGregor, who had been away from the octagon for a year. Chandler has patiently waited for the battle for two years and seems to be on the edge due to the cancellation.
Although many await a rescheduling of the match, there has been no announcement or update regarding it. Chandler is pretty furious with this delay and has taken to social media to call out McGregor constantly for delaying their fight. The fighter has come up with a technique for defeating ‘The Notorious’. Chandler was recently asked by a fan on X what his strategy for beating McGregor would be, and he responded with a biting comment.
“Instill fear…let him pull out of the fight and embarrass himself, be known as the guy who retired McGregor without ever throwing a punch…”
Chandler also compared McGregor to ‘Where’s Waldo,’ a children’s book character known for hiding. Fans are eager to see ‘Iron’ in the cage, and on suggested he battles Nate Diaz instead, to which Chandler responded: “Sit down, Ron… better idea-me and @NateDiaz209 fight like real men, while Conor sits on a yacht and watch on PPV in his slippers…”
Despite his eagerness to face the Irishman, many believe the battle may never happen as there is still no confirmed date for McGregor’s return to the octagon. However, there have been some talks about Chandler facing Islam Makhachev; hopefully, he will take the opportunity.
