16th June was the deadline for the Irishman to be back in the testing pool in order to fight in a 2023 PPV. However, days have passed since the deadline ended and McGregor has still not taken any action.
In this bonus footage from Season 31 of The Ultimate Fighter, Conor McGregor opened up on how many more fights he’d like as well as his strategy for taking on Michael Chandler.
"They asked me what I hope for in this world. I hope for a 100 more fights. You know what I mean I hope for a 100 more fights... Let's bring our homelands anymore," he said.
The head coaches will be these two men, and it will be intriguing to watch how they work together on film. With the results so far Chandler has the upper hand with the official score being McGregor's 0 and Chandler with 5 points.
