“We spoke today,” the head of the organization said, speaking to followers on social media. “I’m in Abu Dhabi right now, he’s in Dubai. We’ll work something out. We’re communicating.”
Last weekend, the former UFC double champion, who attended a boxing night in Riyadh, said the following in an interview with talkSPORT:
“No one in the history of this game has ever been treated as badly as I’m being treated at the moment. I sell more than all the fighters put together and I don’t deserve to be treated like this. I’m waiting, but my patience is running out.”
At the same time, American Michael Chandler, who is the main candidate for the fight with McGregor, suggested that the Irishman is deliberately delaying his return to the octagon to force him to abandon the fight.
Supposedly, the fight between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler could take place on April 13 at the UFC 300 anniversary event in Las Vegas.
