“An injury” has been reported to the Irish mixed martial arts athlete, according to UFC CEO Dana White.
As a result, the Dublin native, 35, will be unable to compete at UFC 303 on June 29. He was scheduled to face Michael Chandler.
McGregor, who has 22 wins and 6 losses, has not competed in a UFC match since Dustin Poirier hurt him in July 2021.
According to Mr. White in a video on X, the new “main event” will feature light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira defending his title against Jiri Prochazka.
We discussed this at one of the most recent news conferences; he had a lot of responsibilities to attend to.
“What you don’t want him doing is accepting a fight when he’s got a tonne of obligations and he can’t train 100% for a fight.”
The 1989 movie Road House was recently remade, in which McGregor appeared.
