Conor McGregor issues warning to Michael Chandler in a recent interview

‘Mystic Mac’ is busy promoting his upcoming Hollywood project ‘Road House’. However, fans are more interested in knowing about his return to the Octagon. While promoting his movie, he spoke to Robbie Fox from Barstool Sports,  who asked him the question, You’re back in fight mode. Is the thought still 185 lbs?”.

The former two-division champion then revealed, “Main thing is, I’ve got great news, I got the call, everything, it’s all a go.” Now with Chandler confirming it seems the wait is over. However, the mind games have already begun and Conor McGregor has predicted the result of his next fight.

The verbal battle started after ‘Iron’ made an appearance on WWE RAW and called out ‘The Notorious’ one. He even claimed to have some unfinished business with him. McGregor took the time to answer to that in a recent interview with Marc Raimondi. He said, “Now, look see this, its Chandler, you got to shut up Michael you f**kin imbecile. The man doesn’t shut up. I seen him on Raw and all. I like Mike. I’m gonna bust him up. I’m gonna bust Mike up. If I say it, I do it. If I say it, it gets done, end of.”

With things seemingly on track, when do you think this one goes down? And who will get the win? Let us know in the comments.
