The UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) put an end to the 'suspense' in the early hours of Saturday into Sunday, by announcing, once and for all, the fight that will mark Conor McGregor's return to competition.

The Irish fighter will face Michael Chandler, in the main event of UFC 303, on 29th June, in Las Vegas. A duel that has been discussed publicly by both parties for a long time, but which has only now been put 'in writing', and is part of International Fight Week.

Conor McGregor, it should be recalled, has been away from the octagon since his defeat by Dustin Poirier, on 10th July 2021. A fight in which he suffered a serious injury, which was followed by a series of controversies, which prevented him from fighting.

Curiously, Michael Chandler's last fight was also against Dustin Poirier, on 12th November 2022, and he also lost, so both have the opportunity to 'clear their image'.
