On The Ultimate Fighter Season 31, Michael Chandler’s team had a perfect 5-0 start, which led him to take a jab at Conor McGregor. His remarks followed a USADA incident involving McGregor, in which he was charged with receiving and utilising illegal substances.
Iron’s comments were interpreted as a subtle jab at McGregor even though he didn’t mention him by name, implying that his team’s success was unrelated to any involvement in such issues. These remarks fueled the already smoldering conflict between Chandler and McGregor.
It is unclear whether their rivalry will show up in the octagon as both competitors move forward with their individual UFC careers. Any potential fights between the two incredibly talented athletes are eagerly anticipated by the crowd.
