Conor McGregor: UFC News: UFC fans have eagerly anticipated the return of their biggest superstar, craving the wit, humor, intensity, and outspoken behavior that define their beloved fighter. McGregor’s absence, spanning two years after his leg injury during the bout with Dustin Poirier, has left a void.

In a conversation with TalkSport, McGregor unveiled his plan for a return and disclosed his next three opponents, which notably include a fight against Michael Chandler and more.
Conor McGregor Next Three Fights – Michael Chandler, and More
Ever since the speculation about McGregor’s return began circulating, one name that has consistently emerged in discussions is Michael Chandler. The promotion even set them up as coaches on TUF 31, and it was rumored that their fight would follow at the end of the show. However, doubts arose when McGregor’s interest appeared to shift towards challenging Justin Gaethje for the BMF title, causing uncertainty about the possibility of Chandler vs. McGregor.
Nevertheless, the affirmation of the Chandler vs. McGregor matchup comes from both Dana White, the prominent figure in the UFC, and McGregor himself, solidifying the anticipation for this showdown. But the excitement doesn’t stop there. After this fight, McGregor is slated to go head-to-head with Justin Gaethje for the BMF and then engage in the trilogy bout against Nate Diaz, as he officially announced during the Anthony Joshua vs. Robert Helenius event.
Conor McGregor confirmed, “Chandler next in December. And then Gaethje for the BMF, and after that, we’ll have the Nate Diaz trilogy.” This announcement was made by McGregor himself regarding his upcoming fights upon his return to the Octagon, as stated during an interview with TalkSport.
In a notable move, McGregor even stirred some extra buzz by challenging KSI for a Bare Knuckle fight. The future holds a lot of action and intrigue in store. McGregor’s serious challenge to Gaethje for the BMF belt underscores his commitment to these upcoming fights.
His strategic plan seems to involve facing Chandler first, then clashing with Gaethje for the BMF title, and subsequently engaging in the trilogy fight against Diaz where he might put the BMF belt on the line. If all these plans come to fruition, it promises to be an exhilarating feast of fights for UFC fans, filled with anticipation, drama, and high-stakes competition.
