Delays and Frustrations: A Conversation with Michael Chandler

In a recent conversation with Daniel Cormier on YouTube, Chandler shared the public’s mounting frustration with the ongoing delays. Still, he stresses the need for patience, reminding everyone that this sort of delay is par for the course when signing up for The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 31.

He voices the shared curiosity and irritation, stating, “It is a moving target and I do understand the intrigue, I understand the annoyance for a lot of people and I understand how quickly people want answers.” Chandler underscores the importance of patience during this uncertain period, insisting that he is controlling what he can and is prepared to “keep moving forward.”

Speculation vs. Reality: Chandler’s View on McGregor’s Return

Addressing the swirling rumors regarding McGregor’s return, Chandler affirms his belief that the Irish sports star will step back into the ring. He’s optimistic that McGregor wouldn’t lead fans on a wild goose chase, stating, “I don’t think he wants to stain his legacy by leading us all down this road of, ‘I’m doing The Ultimate Fighter, I’m fighting Michael Chandler’ then ‘Oh, by the way, never mind. I’m not coming back.’”

Chandler reveals his strategy should the fight occur, aiming to “knock him [McGregor] out within the first two rounds.” He predicts the fight will be “one of the biggest pay-per-views that we have ever seen.”

McGregor himself appears to confirm this anticipation, albeit in his usual audacious style, with a now-deleted tweet, “Ya’s all shut up and wait. Silence! A roar from the throne. Patience, peasants.”

So, with McGregor’s words in mind, all that’s left for fans is to practice the virtue of patience as we eagerly await the anticipated face-off.
