One of the great legends of contact sports, Conor McGregor, who took the UFC to unimagined limits, will return to the cage at UFC 303
Dana White wanted him to be the big star of UFC 300, which will take place in a few weeks. But due to time constraints this was not possible. However, we already know that Conor McGregor will fight at UFC 303. This was confirmed by the one who will be his next rival after several years away from the cage due to a serious injury. An injury that was accompanied by various non-sporting problems.
Be it one way or another, The UFC is waiting impatiently for Conor McGregor. The Irish legend, the man who helped the company grow the most, is ready to return. And we already know his rival will be Michael Chandler. And that despite the fact Ilia Topuria wanted to fight him by putting the belt on the line This struck me in a very powerful way a few weeks ago Volkanovsky.
McGregor already knows the date of UFC 303
Thanks to the statements of Michael Chandler, who confirmed the fight, ensures that he has received the official announcement from the UFC, we know Conor McGregor will fight again this summer. This confirms what was an open secret as we knew the Irishman still had two fights left to finish his contract with the company.
Everything points to that The fight between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler will take place at UFC 303. This event, which will be one of the most attended in the history of mixed martial arts, would take place in June. However, if a final decision is made to postpone his return, the other date that the company manages is the month of September with UFC 306.
Ilia Topuria has to wait
As we know since he won the belt, Ilia Topuria wanted to fight against Conor McGregor. The Hispanic-Georgian, who had been the company’s most recognizable face, wanted to retire once and for all, but couldn’t be the chosen one. And Dana White would prefer to see the Irishman bounce back and become a feared fighter again.
Therefore, Everything seems to point to Ilia Topuria fighting Brian Ortega or Max Holloway. One of them will be his next rival in the UFC before facing another champion. Soon we will have official confirmation about Conor McGregor’s return. A confirmation that could come at UFC 300, where we will certainly see the Irishman in person.
