Conor McGregor’s return has become one of the most speculated upon topics in the MMA community. The Irish MMA icon has been out of action since breaking his leg in a fight against Dustin Poirier in 2021. While his comeback was slated to occur at the conclusion of TUF 31 last year against Michael Chandler, issues with his availability for testing led to the fight falling through.

And his opponent for the long-awaited comeback, Michael Chandler, also revealed that while he cannot provide more details, the fight is inevitable!
