One of the most anticipated events of this year is Conor McGregor’s UFC return after his horrific injury in 2021. McGregor is scheduled to fight Michael Chandler as both fighters will face each other at The Fighting Ultimate Championship season 31. 

While the date of the fight is yet to be announced the UFC has recently made a tweet reminding fight fans about the TUF premier next month. “Let the countdown begin…⏱ We’re officially ONE MONTH away from the premiere of #TUF31!.”

However, what has gathered more attention was McGregor’s appearance in the recent Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship event. The Irishman was there to watch the fight between Chad Mendes and Eddie Alvarez, both fighters who McGregor has fought and beaten in the past. On top of that,  the former UFC double champion even went up to the ring in order to do a face-off with BKFC champion, Mike Perry.

When Conor McGregor was asked to come up and do a face-off with Mike Perry, the fighter was more than willing to do it. He even made some positive remarks on the promotion when asked about it. This promoted the fans to make fun of UFC as their big superstar might be thinking of changing the team here.

Many fans mentioned that UFC dropped the tweet in order to tell the fans that McGregor is still a part of UFC after what happened last night at BKFC. On the other hand, some are convinced that McGregor will never fight Chandler as he’s not fit and not even in the USADA pool yet.
