Conor McGregor is set to face Michael Chandler later this year.
The Irishman hasn’t fought since he broke his ankle during his trilogy fight with Dustin Poirier in July 2021 but announced he is set to return to the Octagon and at a new weight.

His opponent has responded and predicts he will be the man to end the career of ‘The Notorious’.
Speaking on his YouTube channel he said: “Conor wants to continue the narrative that he’s bigger than he actually is. You guys think he’s bigger because of lights, camera angles, and a great photographer. Since I originally called for the fight at 170. So naturally he says 185.”
He continued: “I finish Conor within the first two rounds and after that, probably end his career. There’s just so much more than what people think about on the surface level. I want battlegrounds of epic proportions, I want to stand in the cage with that man, I want to break that man’s will, I want to break his jaw, I want to separate him from consciousness, completely flatline him inside the octagon, and then we say farewell to the sport’s biggest star. Then we can go about our merry way.”
