Conor McGregor Promising His 20th Pro- KO Against Michael Chandler Urges Fans To Demand The Notorious’ Presence In UFC 300 Despite John Kavanagh Citing July As The Return Timeline

Conor McGregor is eager to get back to fighting. The ‘Notorious’ has been out of the Octagon for over two years recovering from a broken leg he suffered against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. Initially, McGregor was slated to fight Michael Chandler this year after the culmination of TUF 31. However, an unfortunate incident transpired involving the USADA testing, that delayed the Irishman’s return.

Even as the ambiguity over his return date persists, the bombastic Irishman is hard at work. Over the past couple of weeks, McGregor has been sharing glimpses of his training with fans. In his most recent post, the former two-division champion has seemingly promised fans something special on his comeback fight.

Conor McGregor promises milestone knockout against Chandler

While UFC CEO Dana White and McGregor have indicated a possible April ’24 return at UFC 300, his coach, John Kavanagh, told Ariel Helwani that Mac’s comeback might be postponed to July next year. But a recent post has once again gotten the fans excited for McGregor’s potential return.

McGregor seemed unbothered by the clouds of uncertainty, as he works through two years of inactivity to make a statement against Chandler. He captioned the post “KO KING 👑 #20,” promising fans that he was practicing hard to get the twentieth knockout of his career against Chandler. Soon after this announcement, fans flocked his comments section to share their thoughts on it.
