The never-ending saga of Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler is at a crossroads now as the former Bellator champion appears to be not giving up on his red panty night fight with the former dual weight champion. ‘Iron’ was supposed to be a clash against ‘Notorious’ in June. However, McGregor pulled out of the clash due to a toe injury. After a month of silence, the dup are engaging in a thrashing banter once again.

Conor McGregor has been making quite some noise in the BKFC since he acquired a minority stake in the promotion from the actual shareholders. Since he became the part owner of the promotion, he now must boost the growth of his new venture actively and that’s what the former dual weight champion is doing. In his latest escapade, McGregor has come forward to promote BKFC on X and it appears that this move has irked Chandler.

Michael Chandler, in response to Conor McGregor’s promotional tweet, asked him to showcase his feet to prove whether they are injured or not, “But show us the bare foot knuckles.” Chandler’s unnecessary attack was taken into consideration by the former dual weight champion as McGregor replied with a candid insult, “Hey Bum Begger. The foot is fully healed.”

MMA community reacts as Conor McGregor gives unfiltered insult to Michael Chandler

The MMA community seems to be in a rage as their fight is getting delayed. McGregor emphasized that he would be returning around September or August but no announcement has been made as of yet. A social media user highlighted that their fight might need six months to materialize “Fully healed but will need another 6 months to let it chill.”

When Conor McGregor was asked about his fight with Chandler on December 14th by combat sports journalist Chisanga Malata, the Irishman had a simple answer for it, “That sounds good to me.” So are they fighting in December? An MMA fan asked the same question, ” “Foot is healed but he tryna fight in December now?”

After his success in MMA and the business field, Conor McGregor is set on his next venture with BKFC. McGregor’s sports company will have a minority stake in the company alongside Triller who is the majority stake owner of the promotion. According to a fan, McGregor appears to be not serious about his comeback, “conor already setting up his next venture i don’t think he gonna win in the UFC anymore” Furthermore, the insult was a bit more personal as per a fan, “Bum beggar” is a crazy insult.” Nonetheless, the back-and-forth is becoming a bit boring according to some fans  “Loved Conor but shit is getting corny”

Last but not least, a social media user asked for the official date of fighting from Dana White. However, the probability of the UFC supremo giving an official date before the confirmation about McGregor’s return is near nil “So when’s the new date Uncle Dana”

Their saga will keep on ensuing, at least until one of them lets go of their prolonged rivalry. What’s your take on the constant banter? State your thoughts in the comments below.
