UFC Lightweight Champion Islam Makhachev reacted to the announcement of the duel between the former holder of titles in two divisions Conor McGregor And Michael Chender.

“I think this fight will be the last for Chandler. He just wants to earn money and leave. If he loses, then the UFC should fire him. How many times did he lose?

McGregor takes a lot of drugs and alcohol. He comes into the fight in bad shape, and it will be hard for him to defeat Chandler. But at the same time, Conor may well win, because I do not understand Michael's logic. He is a basic wrestler, but during the fight he goes crazy. Perhaps he fought so that he could lose to Poirier and Gaethje, and so that Conor would agree to fight him. I am interested in this fight, but there is a huge gap between me and them, ”ESPN quotes Makhachev.

Recall that McGregor and Chandler will become trainers of The Ultimate Fighter 31, after which they will fight in the welterweight division.
