Conor McGregor vows to leave Michael Chandler's "head hanging off" in UFC clash

Conor McGregor has vowed to brutalise Michael Chandler when he steps back in the cage later this year, promising to leave his "head hanging off".

The legendary former two-weight world champion has been out of action since the summer of 2021 when he suffered a broken leg against Dustin Poirier, but has been raring to get back in action. And it is expected he will get his chance in December when he meets ex-Bellator lightweight king Chandler in Las Vegas.

In order to kickstart promotion for their fight, McGregor has been coaching opposite Chandler on season 31 of The Ultimate Fighter. The duo are taking on the roles of training lightweights and bantamweights against each other, with their fight serving as a pay-per-view season finale.
