Clips from the upcoming episode of The Ultimate Fighter show have been leaked online, showcasing a heated altercation between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler. The leaked footage has quickly spread across the internet, creating a buzz among MMA fans. However, the origins of what sparked this confrontation are unclear leaving fans puzzled.

Conor McGregor’s team on the show has been experiencing a series of losses, failing to deliver solid performances. On the contrary, Team Chandler has maintained an undefeated record of 5-0 throughout the TUF series, adding fuel to the tension between the two fighters.

Michael Chandler calls Conor McGregor fighting again a ‘wild concept’

Reacting to the leaked clips, Michael Chandler took to Twitter to address the situation. He tweeted:

“Looks like there are a few #tuf31 leaks happening…could be A.I. – so we aren’t sure if they are real…but what a wild concept; @TheNotoriousMMA being in a real altercation and coming out of retirement to fight again..”

Chandler aimed his tweets directly at McGregor, intensifying the online exchange.

In response to Chandler’s tweets, Joe Green weighed in on the matter. He emphasized McGregor’s successful ventures outside of combat sports, including the sale of his renowned whiskey brand, Proper No. Twelve, which reportedly earned him a substantial fortune. Green concluded that McGregor’s future pursuits might lean more toward movies, shows, and other business ventures. However, Chandler responded surprisingly level-headed and said, “I don’t blame him… but that makes him a liar…I don’t believe he is a liar about combat sports.”

Further adding to the social media drama, Chandler shared a photoshopped picture of himself with a Chuck Liddell mustache, adding a touch of humor to the ongoing exchange. The leaked clips capturing the confrontation between McGregor and Chandler within the TUF 31 show have undoubtedly gone viral, fueling speculation and curiosity among fans. However, the uncertainty surrounding a potential fight between McGregor and Chandler persists.

McGregor vs. Chandler is still up in the air

McGregor’s absence from the USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) testing pool is a critical factor, as fighters must remain in the pool for a minimum of six months before competing. With no reports of McGregor undergoing USADA testing thus far, the fight’s fate hangs in the balance.

The initial plan was for the McGregor vs. Chandler bout to take place after the TUF finale. Yet, with McGregor’s testing situation still unresolved, fans are left in limbo. They are eagerly awaiting any updates that could shed light on the fight’s status. Michael Chandler has expressed his disappointment with the current state of affairs, seemingly frustrated by the uncertainty surrounding his potential clash with McGregor.

With both fighters involved in a fiery exchange and the leaked clips causing a stir, the anticipation surrounding this potential showdown only grows stronger. Only time will tell if these clashes inside and outside the octagon will eventually lead to an official matchup that will satiate the hunger of MMA enthusiasts worldwide.
