Is Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler in jeopardy?
Ever since announcing his comeback, The Notorious has had a problem with USADA. Moreover, a new development has added to the pool of doubts regarding the Irishman’s return fight. UFC legend Chael Sonnen spoke about this in his recent YouTube video.
According to UFC boss Dana White, the fight between UFC heavyweight champ Jon Jones and Stipe Miocic is booked for November. As per rumors, November is the same month in which the McGregor vs Chandler fight was scheduled. Sonnen believes that the heavyweight booking might mean that McGregor vs Chandler is not happening.
