Michael Chandler seems frustrated with the news surrounding his fight with Conor McGregor. He admitted that many details regarding the fight are in the air, and the fight remains far from finalizing. Fans trolled him for a desperate call out of McGregor for the money fight.

The matchup between UFC stars Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler has blockbuster written all over it. The matchup, which was supposed to be the last Pay-Per-View of the year in December, created a lot of traction and build-up. The UFC brilliantly executed promotions for the fight by launching a series titled “Team McGregor v Team Chandler” for the latest TUF season. This hype garnered much attention to the two fighters and the excitement the fight might bring to the audience.

However, owing to recent sexual allegations against McGregor, the fight may not happen this year at all. McGregor has even failed to register himself in the USADA pool. The United States Anti-Doping Agency requires fighters to register well before their fight. The Irish star seems to have missed his deadline due to the legal charges against him. In a recent interview, Michale Chandler expressed his concern about the fight moving forward, considering the circumstances. Nevertheless, Chandler seemed to remain optimistic that the fight would happen in the near future, maybe even this year.

Michael Chandler: As far as I'm concerned the fight against Conor is still happening. Maybe it doesn't happen by the end of this year, which it still might, but if not, it's gonna be first quarter next year.https://t.co/h0M3cIk48G

I feel for him man. He may go from fighting Conor for a fuckton of money to fighting Arman Tsarukyan for way less money and a harder fight

You can tell Chandler is annoyed by the way he’s talking about the fight, he knows it’s slipping away and he’s wasting what’s left of his athletic prime
