Ian Garry recently spoke to Michael Chandler about his upcoming fight against Conor McGregor.

Chandler and McGregor will star as rival coaches in the upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter before engaging in a clash that will also mark the Irishman's return to the octagon after two years. Garry, also from Ireland, met Chandler backstage during UFC 285 at the T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas.

Garry and Chandler had a heartwarming discussion about their respective families before 'The Future' brought up the McGregor fight. The 25 year old told 'Iron":

"Hey, do me one favor. Don't go wild. Don't go wild in the fight."

Chandler, who's built a career off of slugfests, humorously replied:

"I never go wild"

Garry responded:

"Get the f*** out of here! Just don't go wild"

Ian Garry also closed off the early prelims action at UFC 285 with a welterweight clash against Chinese prospect Song Kenan. 'The Future' survived an early scare to go on to score a third-round TKO win, extending his perfect record to 11-0.

Garry's celebrated his win with the famous 'Billie Strut', which has almost become synonymous with the MVP of Irish MMA, Conor McGregor.

Ian Garry makes his pick for Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler

Conor McGregor's upcoming opponent Michael Chandler trains with Ian Garry at Kill Cliff FC (formerly Sanford MMA) in Florida.

According to 'The Future', Chandler arrives half an hour early at the gym and blames him for being late every day. That makes it even easier for Garry to make his pick for the upcoming fight between 'Iron' and McGregor.

'The Future' has no qualms siding with his fellow countryman, who has been an inspiration to generations. Garry recently told Mirror Fighting:

"I've already said this to the guys in the gym, I'm Team Conor every single day of the week. One guy has told me I'm late consistenly because he's always hallf an hour early to the gym. The other guy has done nothing but try and help me and inspire my entire career so f*** that. Team Conor baby!"

Michael Chandler recently stated that the fight against Conor McGregor might be at middleweight, sometime towards the end of the year.
