Conor McGregor Returns to the Cage
Conor McGregor, the former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion, is set to make his long-awaited comeback to the Octagon. After a three-year absence due to a devastating leg injury, McGregor will face off against Michael Chandler on June 29. The welterweight bout is scheduled to headline the highly anticipated UFC 303 card in Las Vegas.
McGregor’s last fight took place in July 2021 against Dustin Poirier, where he suffered a clean break in his tibia, resulting in a TKO loss. The injury required surgery and a lengthy recovery process. However, the Irishman is determined to make a triumphant return and reclaim his status as one of the greatest fighters in UFC history.
Chandler, the former Bellator lightweight champion, is also looking for redemption after a loss to Poirier in his last fight. The two fighters have a history, having served as opposing coaches on the MMA-based reality show ‘The Ultimate Fighter’ last year.
This highly anticipated matchup has been teased by the UFC for over a year, and fans are eagerly awaiting the clash between these two warriors. McGregor himself has dubbed it the "greatest comeback of all time" in a video announcement posted on X last December.
