Conor McGregor tells Michael Chandler that they have a new fight date in 2024: “I talked to Dana today”

Conor McGregor Gives Update on New Date for Michael Chandler Fight

Conor McGregor has taken to his ‘X’ account to claim that a new date to share the Octagon with Michael Chandler seems to be locked in.

I talked to Dana today about our new date, all looking good! 24’ for sure 👍🙏

“I talked to Dana today about our new date, all looking good! 24’ for sure,” McGregor wrote.

It has been three years since fight fans last saw Conor McGregor compete inside the Octagon. He suffered a broken tibia and fibula in his third meeting with Dustin Poirier.

McGregor’s planned return for UFC 303 would’ve drawn eyeballs to International Fight Week, but the UFC made the most out of a bad situation, also having to deal with a last-minute change to the co-main event.

The question now is, will Conor McGregor actually fight in 2024? Chandler has essentially put his career on hold waiting for “Mystic Mac.” It’s clear that Chandler is in a position financially where he can afford to wait for the major payoff.

McGregor remains a massive draw and his next fight inside the Octagon is expected to be a huge financial success for the UFC if it ever comes to fruition.
