The possibility of Conor McGregor returning to the Octagon to fight against Michael Chandler has taken a very special place in the fans’ hearts. Apparently, the former UFC contender, Michael Chandler, is also one of the many who are anticipating the fight. However, the questions about when the fight would take place have been boggling up everyone’s mind. 

In a recent podcast, Michael Bisping made a prediction of when the fight might happen. He counted to six months from May. Thereafter, he reached the conclusion that Jon Jones is set to fight Stipe Miocic in November, which leaves the last main event of the year. The Hall of Famer declared that if McGregor entered the USADA testing pool now, the fans might see him fight Chandler in around December.

The former UFC fighter seemed pretty anxious about the coaches fighting at the TUF 31 finale. Bisping declared that the fight might take place at around the end of the year. He estimated that after six months of the testing pool, McGregor might be available to fight around November or December. However, Jones and Miocic are set to fight in November, at the Madison Square Garden. So, that leaves the month of December for the former UFC double champion’s return.

Bisping said, “Where are we at now? May. So six months, you can fight at the end of the year. I think the idea was Madison Square Garden [in November], that’s going to be Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic, judging by what everybody has been saying online.”

Furthermore, he said, “So the final card of the year at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas [in December], they still have seven months for that. So McGregor just has to get into the testing pool.”
