The long-awaited showdown between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler finally has a date.
UFC CEO Dana White announced on Saturday night that McGregor and Chandler will square off in the main event of UFC 303 on June 29. The fight will be contested at 170 pounds. UFC 303 takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and marks the conclusion of International Fight Week.
McGregor and Chandler served as opposing coaches on “The Ultimate Fighter 31,” but their fight has been delayed on multiple occasions since the conclusion of the reality show this past summer.
