Eddie Alvarez, former UFC champion and ex-rival Conor McGregor, doubts that exactly Michael Chandler will be the Irishman's next opponent.
“It seems to me that behind the scenes the UFC is going through options on how to make the most high-profile fight possible for Conor. This is what they are always chasing. And then Nate Diaz turns out to be available. Who knows, maybe Nate is now in negotiations to return to the UFC and we can expect a third Diaz-McGregor fight. It was one of the biggest battles in history to sell paid subscriptions. So it would be foolish not to think that something like this is possible,” Alvarez said.
