Michael Chandler has sold out for a money fight, now he needs a new line of credit.
The Beginning
In February 2023, it was announced that the prodigal son, Conor McGregor, would be making his return to combat sports in a matchup against divisional superstar “Iron” Michael Chandler.
From the very start, this fight stunk of prevarication, as the build-up was to be conducted through The Ultimate Fighter, a reality TV show where two established pros go head-to-head in coaching a number of fighters through an amateur MMA tournament, with the winner being awarded a contract with the UFC.
