Michael Chandler calls for Jorge Masvidal in 2025 clash for UFC return: ‘Where you at, Jorge?’

Searching for his return to the winner’s enclosure as soon as the early goings of next year, Michael Chandler has seemingly switched plans to take on rival, Conor McGregor next — calling for a pairing with Jorge Masvidal, who has plans to make his own UFC comeback as soon as April.

Chandler, who recently co-headlined UFC 309 this month, suffered his second consecutive loss in the Octagon for the first time in his brief tenure, dropping a rematch unanimous decision loss to Charles Oliveira.

As for former two-time welterweight title challenger and inaugural symbolic BMF titleholder, Masvidal, the Miami veteran departed the promotion back in April of last year, marking an end to his stint with a fourth consecutive loss in the form of a unanimous judging loss of his own against ex-title challenger, Gilbert Burns.
