Amidst the fight announcement for Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler getting dragged on, fans are growing concerned over the Irishman’s antics. ‘The Notorious’ shared another picture of him partying and fans are starting to doubt his seriousness about his comeback. Many of them resorted to strong words to give the former champion a piece of their minds.

Conor McGregor’s return journey started with the filming of season 31 of ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ opposite prospective opponent Michael Chandler. The acclaimed series premiered almost a week ago and yet no fight announcement has been made. Further, the TUF premiere had a viewership of less than 300K, a steep drop compared to McGregor’s previous stint on the show.

One big hurdle to making McGregor vs. Chandler was McGregor’s standoff with USADA. However, that situation has also been resolved after all parties came to an agreement that the Irihsman would enter the testing pool and complete the procedural six-month wait and provide two clean tests.
