Michael Chandler happy for Conor McGregor to skirt USADA pool stipulations: ‘I have no problem with it’

UFC lightweight contender, Michael Chandler appears unmoved by the potential of incoming foe, Conor McGregor receiving an exemption to return to the USADA (United States Anti-Doping Agency) testing pool for a period of six months before their fight, claiming the Dubliner would likely be “clean” to compete if just two negative drug test samples.

Chandler, the current #5 ranked lightweight contender, has been earmarked to share the Octagon with Crumlin counter striker, McGregor before the close of this year at the welterweight limit, with the duo competing as opposing coaches on The Ultimate Fighter 31 earlier this year.
