"This is the most entertaining segment out of TUF this season."

"Chandler such a b**ch for letting himself get pushed like that"
"It's been a boring ass season too. This isn't the same Conor we all loved watching inside and outside of the octagon."

Michael Chandler is still optimistic about fighting Conor McGregor

Despite all the doubts surrounding a clash between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler, 'Iron' is still seemingly optimistic about the fight happening within the next six months.

It is worth noting that 'The Notorious' missed the deadline to enter the USADA testing pool which would've allowed him to fight this year. Because of the same, many are of the opinion that his fight against 'Iron' may never come to fruition.

However, Michael Chandler believes otherwise. Whilst talking with Daniel Cormier, Chandler had this to say about his potential clash against Conor McGregor:

"There's talks going on and happening basically every single day. I think Conor's coming back. I don't think he wants to stain his legacy by leading us all down this road of - I'm doing the Ultimate Fighter, I'm fighting Michael Chandler, oh, by the way, never mind. I'm not coming back... Supposedly there was a countdown with USADA, six months, and all that other stuff."

He added:

"That's not for me to choose. Have there been exemptions before?... I do believe I fight Conor within the next six months and it's going to be one of the biggest pay-per-views that we have ever seen."
