It was announced that McGregor and Michael Chandler were scheduled to attend the first press conference for their upcoming main event bout at the 3Arena in Dublin on Monday at noon ET. However, just hours before the press conference was set to take place, the UFC announced that the event had been postponed due to a last-minute issue.
This late postponement led to speculation that the fight might be in jeopardy of being canceled. However, former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen has provided additional insight into the situation.
“Our Irish Star Is Starting to Focus”
Fans have continued to speculate online about the postponement of the press conference. The upcoming Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler fight at UFC 303. Some have wondered if it could be related to an injury that McGregor may have sustained during his training camp.
However, former UFC middleweight title challenger Chael Sonnen has provided a different perspective. Sonnen expressed confidence that the fight would still go as planned, suggesting that the press conference cancellation was likely due to McGregor being so intensely focused on his training.
“From what I have now, I don’t agree with the speculation, Perhaps Conor McGregor for the first time ever is starting to focus. There’s one more clue, which is Conor didn’t just cancel the Ireland press conference, he canceled all media that’s already been agreed to leading up to this contest which makes me think, quite possibly our Irish star is starting to focus.” Sonnen said.
The impending matchup between the two high-profile fighters has generated significant excitement and anticipation from fans as the UFC 303 event approaches. Fans are eager to see how McGregor will perform after his extended hiatus from competition in the Octagon.
