Former two-weight UFC champion, Conor McGregor has laid out his plans for potential opponents in his return to action — welcoming a grudge match rebooking with Michael Chandler, as well as renewed rivalries with past foes, Dustin Poirier and Nate Diaz.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight champion and featherweight gold holder, was ruled from a three-year hiatus-snapping return earlier this summer in the main event of UFC 303, withdrawing from a welterweight showing against the above-mentioned, Chandler during International Fight Week.
Fracturing a toe on his left foot just weeks ahead of the June pay-per-view headliner, McGregor has been out of action since he fractured his left tibia and fibula in a 2021 doctor’s stoppage TKO defeat to the previously mentioned, Poirier in the pair’s trilogy rubber match.
