Amid the ongoing fiasco surrounding the status of Conor McGregor’s slated return against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 later this month, former champion, Daniel Cormier has urged fans to “brace” themselves for a certain level of disappointment amid speculation the bout may be in jeopardy.
Slated to snap an almost three-year hiatus from the Octagon at the end of this month, Conor McGregor has been tied to a welterweight fight against former lightweight title challenger, Chandler during International Fight Week atop UFC 303.
However, speculation has mounted this week regarding the status of the pairing, with the organization cancelling a UFC 303 pre-fight press conference at the 3Arena in Dublin, set to take place yesterday evening.
