Makhachev reacted to the fight between McGregor and Chandler

The current UFC lightweight champion, Islam Makhachev, once again demonstrated that he has not only the highest level of fighting skills, but also an excellent sense of humor.

The reason for the joke of the Russian was the information that Michael Chandler will become the next rival of Conor McGregor.

“I hope this fight will take place and one of them will finally win,” Makhachev wrote on the social network, posting a photo of the Irishman and the American.

UFC President Dana White spoke about the possible organization of the fight between McGregor and Chandler in an interview with ESPN.

The last time Michael Chandler entered the octagon was in November of this year, losing by rear naked choke in the third round to Dustin Poirier. Six months earlier, the 36-year-old American finished his compatriot Tony Fergson with a spectacular front kick, which ensured his victory in the Knockout of the Year category at the annual World MMA Awards.

Conor McGregor, 34, who suffered a severe leg fracture last summer in a fight with Dustin Poirier, plans to return to the American Anti-Doping Agency testing pool in February and begin preparations for his next fight.

Theoretically, the duel between McGregor and Chandler could take place next summer.
