When is the next McGregor fight in the UFC?
After Conor McGregor broke his leg against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021, many MMA fans have been wondering for a long time: When is the next Conor McGregor fight?
Conor McGregor’s comeback was supposed to take place at UFC 303 in Las Vegas (USA) on June 29, 2024 against Michael Chandler.
Due to an injury, the Irishman is unable to compete. However, McGregor’s comeback will now be delayed indefinitely. It has not yet been announced when McGregor’s comeback fight against Chandler will take place. It will probably not be until 2025…
In the UFC betting odds, which were created in mid-June before the (preliminary) cancellation, McGregor was seen as the slight favorite for his comeback fight.
Yet “The Notorious” has lost his last two UFC fights. Before his fatal leg break, he also lost his first fight against Poirier in January 2021. McGregor’s last win dates back to January 2020.
Michael Chandler has a similarly mixed record. The 38-year-old American has lost three of his last four fights. His last defeat was also against Poirier – that was in November 2022
