White: "If Chandler asks for a fight this summer, we'll do it"

UFC CEO Dana White has spoken out about Michael Chandler, who was left without an opponent following Conor McGregor's withdrawal from UFC 303.

"Poor Chandler... I think he wants to wait for Conor. You know, we'll do whatever he wants for Michael. If he asks for a fight this summer, we'll make it happen. He's one of the best athletes I've worked with. He's a very good person.

I like Michael a lot. Whatever he wants to do, we'll work something out for him. He's a really great guy," White said in an interview with The Jim Rome Show.

Recall that due to the wait for a box office fight with McGregor, Chandler has been idle since November 2022.
