If UFC calls Max Holloway right now & had him start preparing to fight Chandler for the BMF title, is that only realistic headliner they could line up in the event that McGregor doesn't make it to the fight?
I think Max would be willing to do it if UFC was backing up the Brinks truck for him. He'd probably still be favored to beat Chandler even at 170.
What would be the other options to save UFC 303? No other champions are going to fight on 1 months notice I imagine.
Also there is no other opponent that could fight Chandler in the main event & keep it a PPV. I'm sure someone like Oliveira would be willing to fight Chandler on this short of notice, but surely the UFC wouldn't try selling that as a PPV. Card should instantly turn into be downgraded to a fight night if they tried to headline with something like that imo.
