McGregor Vs ... ?
McGregor and Poirier had both voiced their respective interest in an immediate trilogy rubber match following their UFC 257 rematch at the beginning of the year, with Poirier electing against drawing Michael Chandler for some form of lightweight gold off the back of his first-round knockout win over Dan Hooker.
As a result, Khabib Nurmagomedov officially vacated the lightweight championship amid his October retirement, with Charles Oliveira now drawing Chandler for the vacant crown on May 15. at UFC 262 at the Toyota Centre in Houston, Texas.
Whilst McGregor has seemingly called for a new opponent on July 10. -- Chandler was quick to throw his name into the hat to match with the 32-year-old -- noting how he would be available on May 15. and July 10. if the UFC required him. Also detailing his willingness to matchup with McGregor; former interim lightweight title challenger, Kevin Lee, who asked both McGregor and UFC president, Dana White to install him into the UFC 264 main event.
