The return of Conor McGregor has been a hot topic in the combat sports world for a while now. The 22-6 lightweight is a former two-division titleholder. He last fought against Dustin Poirier. Their last faceoff saw “The Notorious” incur a leg injury that had to undergo surgery. The fighter is fully healed and aspiring to return soon. Co-contenders like Poirier remain ready to “shut up” his chances at UFC 300, once and for all. Other contending and expectant bouts include Michael Chandler.

A recent video from November has surfaced that shows a funny altercation between Chandler and Nate Diaz. Riding in an elevator, Diaz brings up a showdown between Chandler and The Irishman.

On the subject of the viability of a second-round KO to McGregor, Diaz, however, puts a stoppage. The video sees a funny altercation where the 22-13 Diaz puts a “don’t be involving” tag on the matter. Diaz is an old rival of McGregor, whom he last faced in 2016.
