News Conor McGregor says he will return June 29th against Michael Chandler at Middleweight

[Shabal]

“Greatest comeback in sports history” LMFAO. Even if he miraculously manages to win, which he won’t, where TF does he go from here?

I’m not a fan of Leon but it’d make sense to let him go up to MW for a Connor fight in UK or Ireland and let him end this idiot’s career for good.

Conor would KO Izzy and Pereira stiff

<45>

A week before international fight week, st 185 vs a 155er. Brilliant

 

[Ace70 V2]

I put Conor and Costa in the same category. I'll believe it when he walks into the cage.

 

[pinero]

I'm always confused with the the sherdoggers rooting for Conor because I can't distinguish between trolls and stupid people (maybe because both are the same ).

 

[Pechan]

I see zero point to having this fight at 185.

What difference does it make?

 

[Arcticman]

By contrast 3 years off Conor, coming off of a shattered leg, is going to be the epitome of an active and healthy fighter eh?

Its he's own fault for drinking himself to death, he been fit and healty for a long time now. The point was other fighters just come back and fight guys, they dont try this sneaky crap of making chandler hang out for 2 years so he will be rusty and not active.

 

[chimpoehurricane]

He needs a diet. At gunpoint he couldn't make 145 even with iv.

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

Middleweight. Michael Chandler. What a pointless fight

It will be fun man, and Chandler knocks him the fuck out imo

You aren't very intelligent.

That injury has been career ending. Nobody has competed at the highest level after that injury.

 

[Maybe2]

I'll wait for the official announcement. If true, I don't care. It's a fun fight with (hopefully) no title implications. They could just agree to fight and not even weigh in for all I care as long as there are no title implications on the line. I say that due to where both fighters are career wise.

 

[moosaev]

If this fight was real Chandler would’ve said something. It’s a troll job lol

Awh bless, good thing he been juicing up for 2 years then. while ignoring tests.

 

[Contempt]

185... WTF?

 

[Poirierfan]

Another day another pointless Conor thread. No offense to TS, but I propose banning anyone who creates a new Conor thread from here on out, please.

Why a half a year away?

What happened to stay ready?

Surely it's because he hasn't had an exemption?

Remind me again how well Chris Weidman looked after 2.3 years off with the same injury against unranked Tavares?

 

[Deleted member 585708]

Chandler has waited 6 years for this fight lol

 

[CasualTakes]

At MW??!! Wonder what Chandler will have to say about that.

Nothing. He's shelved his career for how long waiting for this fight already? He would step in the cage wearing an actual red panty if he was asked to.

 

[JosephTessaro]

The UFC didn't announce this fight.

Why the fuck would this fight be at 185 anyway? Just because Conor can't cut the weight or his new plans are to make a MW run???

Why do we get excited about Conor anymore? 35, hasn't fought for 2 years, hand picks fights that have no impact or bearing on title contentions.
