UFC 303 News: Latest Update on Conor McGregor vs Michael Chandler Amid Concerns

Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler are set to fight in UFC 303, easing concerns after a press conference postponement.

Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler were recently spotted inside the Octagon filming for season 31 of "The Ultimate Fighter," according to Zuffa LLC.

In the midst of the UFC 303 situation, where the press conference in Dublin was postponed, fans were left worried about McGregor's participation in the upcoming pay-per-view event on June 29th. However, a recent update from Ariel Helwani has shed some light on the situation.

Helwani mentioned on a recent episode of "The MMA Hour" that UFC 303 is not canceled and there is a strong possibility that the highly anticipated matchup between McGregor and Chandler will proceed as planned. He emphasized the importance of the event, especially with International Fight Week approaching.

Although things could still change, the current outlook is positive, with a significant shift in vibes from earlier in the week. Helwani hinted at a potential backup fight being considered by the UFC in case McGregor vs. Chandler falls through.
