Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler have been acting as coaches against each other in The Ultimate Fighter season 31. Cody Gibson from Team Chandler was up against Mando Gutierrez from Team McGregor in the second episode of TUF 31. Nevertheless, the world still lies in wait to watch the ‘Mystic Mac’ fight Chandler inside the cage.
