Amidst talks of a return fight against Michael Chandler, Conor McGregor is not doing himself any favors. Recently surfaced pictures show him at another party and the fans are not pleased. With Chandler flooding his social media with training and motivational content, McGregor’s feed is a stark contrast. This has prompted many fans to question the Irishman’s resolve about returning to MMA successfully.

Conor McGregor has been on the sideline since his leg break at UFC 264 in July 2021. That was until Dana White announced his return earlier this year. The UFC president announced McGregor would return to coach season 31 of ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ against Michael Chandler and the pair would then fight later this year.

The announcement was exciting for the MMA community, but a rift between McGregor and USADA slowed things down. Until recently, all parties announced a peaceful resolution to the disputes and confirmed McGregor would enter the testing pool shortly.
