Conor McGregor’s appearance for the UFC 303 fight against Michael Chandler was completely doubtful till now. Why? This recent week has been a rollercoaster for the UFC world after the Dublin press conference for this fight was postponed without any reasons given by the UFC or even ‘The Notorious’.

Even though McGregor wrote an apology after the cancellation of the press conference, the circumstances were undisclosed. This made fans and veterans worried about the fight. Till now everyone has been speculating different scenarios where they think the fight is canceled due to an apparent injury that Mcgregor is facing, or because of his lack of training and alcohol/drug problems.

However, there has been a new development and another insider just gave a huge update that might excite the fans.

Insider reveals the real scenario with Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler fight

UFC ex-fighter Michael Bisping uploaded a new video on his YouTube channel giving a breakdown of the much-awaited fight. Despite the press conference being canceled for now, the MMA artist/actor stated that the fight is on. He said, “The reality is the fight is on. Because as I said the promotional stuff it’s all back up there. They wouldn’t do that if the fight wasn’t still going ahead.”

Bisping explained the whole story, stating how everyone thought that ‘The Notorious’ must have hurt the same leg that he hurt while fighting Dustin Poirier in his last fight two years ago.

The 45-year-old was in Atlanta while shooting the video along with Justin Gaethje and Kamaru Usman and hinted that even those veterans thought the fight wouldn’t go on as scheduled. However, Bisping gave the good news, “I have heard from sources that I won’t reveal I’ve heard in no uncertain terms it’s done he’s injured. The leg that was issue that he snapped in 2021 apparently, was the issue. Also, we thought so we were told so we were misinformed or misled.”

ESPN had taken down posts of the fight but now those posts are back along with the new sparring videos from none other than ‘Mystic Mac’. Even Michael Chandler announced in his interviews that the fight was on.

Conor McGregor impressing veterans with his training footage

McGregor is coming off a huge operation and losses after two years on hiatus. He has been training hard but people were still doubtful with all the partying videos coming up recently. Some thought the Irishman would not be 100% fit and even feared that the fight might get canceled. However, after watching the new training video, ‘The Mighty Mouse Demetrius Johnson has other ideas.

Johnson saw the footage carefully and broke down the technicalities of McGregor’s sparring prowess. “The guy shot in, he failed. He [Conor] brings him up, knee to the face, right there. Watch what he does, he creates some distance, he measures with this hand right here, he’s measuring. Look at his stance, his stance is ready to go,” Johnson said in his YouTube video. 

‘Mystic Mac’ seems to be training to hone his skills in takedowns which is a weak suit for Chandler since the latter is better on his feet. DJ thinks Mcgregor can beat Chandler on June 29 because of his style. With all the hype around the fight, are you excited to watch the D-day?
