“you guys and the UK fans as well, whether you love me or you hate me, you gotta at least respect the grind. . .” Clearly, the lightweight fighter isn’t holding back when it comes to bringing the attention to himself and his commitment to this fight.
McGregor on the other hand has been much more casual about it all. He’s not called Chandler out as often or as strongly as his opponent has. He accepts that his fight would be against Chandler but his behavior almost looks like he isn’t too sure about it either. Does that mean there are other names in the line?

Michael Chandler would be rather disappointed if Conor McGregor ended up fighting someone else entirely. Say, a trilogy fight between him and Dustin Poirier? Poirier has recently beaten the brakes off of Benoit Saint-Denis at UFC 299.
Would this fight be a possibility? It’s an interesting prospect but perhaps it’s a bit far away from reality. McGregor has asked to come back to the cage at middleweight this time since he’s already conquered the lightweight division once.

Does that mean he will fight Michael Chandler after all? Or will he fight another middleweight fighter to find a title shot a bit faster? What are your thoughts?
