Conor McGregor announces return to UFC with Michael Chandler fight

@TheNotoriousMMA

Conor McGregor took to social media on New Year’s Eve to claim that he will fight Michael Chandler in a middleweight bout on 29 June.

It was originally announced in February that McGregor would face Chandler at a later date in 2023, in the Irishman’s first bout since he suffered a broken leg in July 2021. However, the fight has still not taken place, with McGregor since suggesting that he could even face a different opponent upon his UFC comeback.
