Finally everything is done! The largest organization in the world has officially announced a list that has been talked about for a really long time. Conor McGregor’s return to the cage is already certain. The former double UFC champion will face Michael Chandler at the end of June.
This will of course be the main event. So far, three other lineups are scheduled for the Las Vegas event. The main featherweight card will feature Cub Swanson (29-13) vs. Andre Fili (23-11).
“Iron” made his UFC debut in January 2021 – he did it in great style, finishing Dan Hooker in the first round. Then there was the title fight, in which, after a good start, he was knocked out by Charles Oliveira. There was also a loss on points after a great fight with Justin Gaethje.
The American’s second victory was during UFC 274, when he knocked out Tony Ferguson with a heavy front kick. The last fight took place in November 2022, when Chandler lost by submission in the third round to Dustin Poirier.
Officially!
We have the long-awaited announcement. The UFC organization has just officially announced the fight between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler.
It will take place on June twenty-ninth in Las Vegas and it will, of course, be the main event of UFC 303.
The Irishman will want to get back on track after the last two painful losses to Dustin Poirier. McGregor’s last victory came in January 2020, when he demolished veteran Donald Cerrone after 40 seconds.
