Conor McGregor’s Comeback Camp in Full Swing for UFC 303 Fight against Michael Chandler

Conor McGregor is gearing up for his highly anticipated return to the Octagon against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 on June 29. Since the announcement of his comeback, McGregor has been hard at work in his training camp, with pictures from his backyard gym shared on social media.

In a recent Instagram post, McGregor gave his 47.5 million followers a sneak peek into his training session, showcasing his boxing work, pad work, and stretching routines. However, two unexpected guests made an appearance during his training day – UFC drug testing agents and a barber giving McGregor a haircut.

Despite not fighting since breaking his leg in a bout with Dustin Poirier in July 2021, McGregor has been fully fit and focused on his return to the Octagon. He recently revealed in an interview that he is ready to showcase his titanium rod-enhanced leg in the fight against Chandler, aiming to secure a victory with a powerful kick.

UFC President Dana White announced that the fight will take place at welterweight and will be a non-title bout, dispelling rumors of a new 165lb division. However, Chandler expressed his willingness to compete for a belt if the opportunity arises, showcasing the excitement and anticipation surrounding this showdown.

As McGregor continues to intensify his training camp, fans and fellow fighters eagerly await his return to the Octagon in what promises to be a thrilling and action-packed fight against Chandler at UFC 303.
