Michael Chandler is considering a rematch against Conor McGregor with more determination. The anticipated fight has faced rumors and delays, mainly due to McGregor’s recent injury causing him to withdraw. Despite being offered a lightweight title shot in October, Chandler is willing to exchange it for a fight with McGregor in September at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
The long-awaited clash between Chandler (23-8 MMA, 2-3 UFC) and McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) has been brewing for over a year, especially with McGregor returning after a three-year absence due to injury. McGregor has shown interest in fighting in August or September, aligning with the UFC’s scheduled event at The Sphere on September 14.
Chandler’s readiness to prioritize a fight with McGregor over a title shot indicates the significance of their potential matchup. This event could be one of the most significant in sports history, attracting considerable attention from fans and the media.
