Announcement of Epic Showdown
Conor McGregor's highly-anticipated return to the octagon against Michael Chandler has been confirmed for UFC 303. The showdown was initially scheduled last February when the two were named as rival Ultimate Fighter 31 coaches.
Long-Awaited Comeback
McGregor's absence from the USADA testing pool caused a delay in the fight. However, after re-entering the pool in October, the promotion postponed his return until 2024. This weekend, McGregor is finally set to make his comeback at UFC 300.
Top Billing at UFC 303
Although Dana White chose not to have McGregor headline UFC 300, the Irishman and Chandler will take the spotlight at UFC 303 on June 29. McGregor, a former two-division champion, is eager to step back into the octagon after a nearly three-year hiatus.
McGregor's Determination to Win
McGregor, who hasn't tasted victory in almost four-and-a-half years, is determined to secure a win with a brutal head kick KO using his new steel-reinforced limb. The Irish fighter expressed his eagerness to return to his fighting ways and is focused on getting back to winning form.
