Conor McGregor believes Michael Chandler smart to wait for fight: ‘He’d need 10 to break even with this check’

Conor McGregor understands why Michael Chandler is so persistent.

Chandler’s long-awaited duel with McGregor was struck a blow when it was announced that an injury had forced “The Notorious” to withdraw from their highly anticipated welterweight bout, which was to headline UFC 303 next Saturday. A light heavyweight championship rematch between Alex Pereira and Jiri Prochazka has been scheduled for the new June 29 main event.
