In that fight, McGregor suffered a nasty leg injury, which kept him out of action. Since then, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding his return, and at one point, it looked like he would never fight again.
However, that is not the case, and Conor McGregor is set to return at UFC 303. He will fight Michael Chandler in the main event of the card. Ahead of the fight, a lot has been said about how McGregor’s lack of action could prove to be helpful for Chandler.
However, Conor McGregor’s coach believes otherwise. Interestingly, he recently made a bold prediction for the fight and said:
“He’s looking super slick… I said this from the start, I see similarities to the Mendes fight. I’d be surprised if it can go two rounds. [McGregor] hits too hard, he’s too sharp. Is there going to be scrappiness and a few takedowns and stuff? Maybe But every round starts on the feet and his ability to get back there is underestimated.”
