Michael Chandler is not ready to turn the page on a potential fight with UFC star Conor McGregor despite everything that’s transpired. Chandler, a former Bellator lightweight champion, returned to the octagon last Saturday at UFC 309 . There, he lost a unanimous decision to Charles Oliveira after putting his career on hold for well over a year and waiting for a fight with McGregor to materialize. Now back in action, the 38-year-old wants to revisit the McGregor fight for the summer of 2025.
