Again confirming he is set to make his long-anticipated return to the Octagon this summer, ex-UFC champion, Conor McGregor has called for a three round bout against rival, Michael Chandler in his comeback fight – in a bid to “wet his beak” amid a period of three years away from the sport.
McGregor, a former undisputed featherweight champion and lightweight titleholder under the banner of the organization, has been sidelined since he headlined UFC 264 back in 2021, suffering a fractured left tibia and fibula in a first round doctor’s stoppage TKO loss to Dustin Poirier.
