CEO of the UFC, Dana White, said on Saturday night that Conor McGregor will square off against Michael Chandler in the main event of UFC 303 on June 29 in Las Vegas, which has long been scheduled. The card’s main event will be the UFC’s yearly International Fight Week.

Although McGregor had stated on January 1 that he would fight Chandler on that day, White’s announcement was the official announcement. According to White, the battle would start at 170 pounds.

The most prominent fighter in UFC history, McGregor, hasn’t competed since July 2021 due to a broken left leg sustained in a fight with Dustin Poirier. On “The Ultimate Fighter” in 2023, McGregor and Chandler competed as coaches against each other to fight each other once the reality show concluded.

What Makes Conor McGregor One Of The Most Loved Fighters In UFC?

Conor McGregor is not, and has never been, the best UFC fighter in the world. Other fighters have performed better in the past. However, that does not negate that he is the most entertaining combatant in mixed martial arts history.

Look at some of the best Mic moments of Conor McGregor before UFC 303:

Although Jon Jones is the greatest fighter to have ever competed in the Octagon, McGregor is undoubtedly the most well-liked cage fighter in history. And one could argue that when it comes to accumulating wealth, being the most well-known is a more significant distinction than piling up the trophy case.

Although McGregor is a fan favorite due to his devastating strike ability, he also possesses grappling skills.
