Following the electrifying performance of UFC 300, Dana White wasted no time in announcing two big upcoming PPV events. Among them is UFC 303, featuring the highly anticipated showdown between McGregor and Chandler, set to occur on June 29, 2024, at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, within the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area.
However, before this announcement, Michael Chandler expressed interest in a BMF (Baddest Motherf***) fight against Max Holloway. Let’s delve into the specifics of this proposal after Dana White confirms the Conor McGregor clash for UFC 303.
UFC 303: Michael Chandler’s BMF Title Challenge to Max Holloway
Michael Chandler has expressed interest in facing Max Holloway for the BMF title following Holloway’s impressive victory over Justin Gaethje at UFC 300. In an interview with ‘TheMacLife,’ Chandler congratulated Holloway on his win and mentioned possibly challenging him for the BMF title after his upcoming fight against McGregor.
Chandler praised Holloway’s performance and stated his desire to compete for the BMF and lightweight belts in the future.
”Hats off to Max… Max would be a guy. I would love to fight for that belt at some point. Obviously, I got a job to take care of here in 76 days, but, man, I would love to fight for that BMF belt eventually, too, and the lightweight belt.” Chandler said on ‘TheMacLife’.

Following his victory, Holloway expressed interest in facing the current featherweight and lightweight champions, Ilia Topuria and Islam Makhachev, respectively. He hinted at a potential matchup with Topuria.

The status of the BMF title fight remains uncertain, suggesting it might be some time before a resolution is reached.

This event is scheduled for June 29, 2024, at the T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area.
