UFC lightweightMichael Chandler believes the promotion should introduce a new belt for his bout with Conor McGregor.
"That was one of the rumors too, a belt for 165 pounds, but obviously that didn't happen. But I wouldn't be surprised if the fight agreement is signed and it says a title in the 165-pound weight class. You never know for sure because the UFC has to keep a lot of things secret. Even us, right? They keep a lot of different information secret. We knew the date. I knew what the weight class was probably going to be. But this fight is supposed to be for the belt, but we'll see if we can come up with one," Chandler told TheMacLife.
