UFC lightweight star Michael Chandler and his wife Brie have given fans a glimpse into their personal lives after the couple shared some wholesome family pictures with their two sons Hap and Ace.
Chandler is still awaiting his blockbuster clash against Conor McGregor after the pair's scheduled UFC 303 clash was canceled due to the Irishman suffering an injury. They are still expected to face off in the octagon, however, with current rumors suggesting they could be set to headline a UFC pay-per-view in March.
Whilst 'Iron' has faced some criticism from fans for his decision to wait to face 'The Notorious', which currently stands at nearly two years, it appears as though Chandler has been more than happy having the extra time with his family.
Recently, Brie Chandler shared a series of professional photographs the family had taken together. The couple, who married in 2014, also have two sons through adoption. Hap, whom they adopted in 2017, and Ace, adopted in 2022. She captioned the post:

Conor McGregor expects to make UFC comeback against Michael Chandler before the end of 2024
Conor McGregor recently addressed fan concern about his fighting future, suggesting that his highly anticipated return is still set to happen before the end of the year.
After pulling out of his UFC 303 bout against Michael Chandler, the Irishman has faced a wave of criticism from fans, with many believing he never had any intention of stepping back in the octagon. The consensus amongst his critics is that due to the money McGregor has made throughout his career, he no longer has the fire burning inside him to keep fighting.
'The Notorious' has since squashed any such notion he is close to the end, however, after he discussed his future in a recent interview with ESPN MMA. According to McGregor, he is "eager" to face Michael Chandler before the year's end. He said:
"My comeback is scheduled for the year, sometime the end of this year, closing out the show. So, I was close to returning, we had an incident and had a postponement had to happen...The fight is rescheduled for the end of this calendar year, so I'm excited about that and eager to get back."
