Perhaps Michael Chandler is happening the offensive in his combat with Conor McGregor.
That combat, heretofore, has been a seemingly unending stream of hypothesis and boy-who-cried-wolf-isms between the 2. A date lastly was booked for this previous Saturday at UFC 303 till McGregor pulled out with a damaged child toe.
Now Chandler has implied a light-weight title shot has been provided to him in October – however that he’d be keen to cross it up if McGregor could make a September date at The Sphere in Las Vegas.
“I’ve been provided @MAKHACHEVMMA in October – but when @TheNotoriousMMA little pinky toe is prepared by Sept, let’s do sphere. Greatest sporting occasion in historical past of sports activities!!!! @RiyadhSeason #ufc306,” Chandler posted.
