Conor McGregor being elected as one of the coaches for the coming season of TUF enthralled a lot of fans. After an almost one-and-a-half-year timeout from the UFC due to his gruesome injury, McGregor was scheduled to face off against noted UFC Lightweight Michael Chandler‘s team for TUF. Further, the UFC also announced that there will be a bout between the two coaches of TUF somewhere during the season. Despite McGregor’s return to the UFC for TUF, it’s understandable that the fans want to see him fight inside the octagon even more.

This, in turn, has subjected UFC supremo Dana White to a variety of questions about when this McGregor-Chandler showdown shall finally commence. At the post-UFC on ABC 4 press conference, one of the reporters put forward a similar question before the 53-year-old. Although White initially wanted to shrug it off, still, he gave out some information about the issue that the fans might find interesting.

A number of fans might already be aware that the shooting for TUF had already begun quite a few months back. McGregor touching down in Las Vegas to begin the shooting for TUF had also made massive headlines. But there is no confirmed news about when the same shall come out on air for the fans.

The reporter at the post-UFC on ABC 4 press conference had based her question solely on the Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler bout. She questioned White, “I’m wondering if you have an update on McGregor vs Chandler?” Initially White replied, “I don’t know.” He also revealed the high frequency of the question coming to him, stating, “That is the most asked question I’m getting right now.”

But finally, he revealed a big piece of information about this issue. The UFC boss reiterated, “Obviously the season of TUF will air soon and during that season we will be working hard to put that fight together.”
