Chandler Vows to End McGregor's Return on a Sour Note
Michael Chandler is determined to put an end to Conor McGregor's highly-anticipated UFC comeback on a sour note. McGregor recently announced that he will return to the octagon on June 29 in Las Vegas to face Chandler. This will be McGregor's first fight in three years, and he has boldly claimed it will mark the beginning of the "greatest comeback in sports history."
Chandler Dismisses McGregor's Advantages
However, Chandler has other plans and believes McGregor holds no advantages over him in the fight. On his YouTube channel, Chandler confidently stated, "He's not stronger than me, I hit harder than he does, I'm not worried about size in this fight." He emphasized that both fighters are within a similar weight range, debunking any concerns about McGregor's size advantage.
The Fight Announcement
Despite McGregor's announcement, the UFC has not yet officially confirmed the bout between McGregor and Chandler. Furthermore, eyebrows were raised when McGregor claimed the fight would take place at the middleweight limit of 185lb. McGregor has never fought above 170lb at welterweight, which adds an intriguing element to the upcoming matchup.
Chandler Challenges McGregor's Strength
Chandler also called out McGregor's strength, asking for proof of the Irishman lifting heavy weights. He challenged viewers to find any videos of McGregor lifting heavy weights, as he believes they do not exist. Chandler made it clear that he does not see McGregor as a stronger opponent and is confident in his ability to defeat him.
With Chandler's determination to spoil McGregor's comeback and the intense rivalry brewing between the two fighters, the upcoming fight promises to be one of the most highly-anticipated events in UFC history.
