Michael Chandler has been warned against putting his brain cells on the line in his fight against UFC star Conor McGregor.
McGregor has announced he will make a long-awaited comeback against Chandler this year after breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier in July 2021. The fight will come as part of the UFC's latest series of The Ultimate Fighter and Chandler will be looking to bounce back from his own defeat to Poirier late last year.
A fight between Chandler and McGregor will likely be thrilling for fans given the American's all-action approach, which has seen him involved in some brutal fights including against Tony Ferguson and Justin Gaethje. However UFC champion Aljamain Sterling has warned the 36-year-old to tailor his aggression as he believes he has the skills to become a title-holder and progress beyond McGregor.
