Conor McGregor Reveals New Target Date for UFC Fight Against Michael Chandler

The eagerly anticipated showdown between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler is back on track, with the former lightweight champion confirming a new fight date for 2024.

The blockbuster clash was initially scheduled for UFC 303 in Las Vegas last month, but McGregor was forced to withdraw due to undisclosed reasons.

However, in a recent exchange with Chandler on social media, McGregor hinted at a potential fight date in 2024, stating: “I talked to Dana today about our new date, all looking good! 24′ for sure.”

While the specific date and venue for the fight have yet to be announced, combat sports reporter Ariel Helwani has suggested that the fight is likely to take place in December 2024.

McGregor’s last fight was a crushing defeat to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021, marking his second consecutive loss to the Louisiana native.

The Irishman will be hoping to bounce back from those setbacks and return to winning ways against the hard-hitting Chandler.

Chandler, a former Bellator lightweight champion, has won three of his five fights in the UFC, most recently defeating Tony Ferguson at UFC 274.

The highly anticipated clash between McGregor and Chandler is expected to be one of the biggest fights of 2024, with both fighters boasting significant fan bases and proven knockout power.

Further updates on the fight date and venue are expected to be released in the coming months.
