One of the biggest fights of the year from the moment it was announced, the highly anticipated bout between Chandler and McGregor in the main event of UFC 303 has been the subject of much discussion this week after a press conference in Dublin to promote the card was abruptly canceled.
“The Notorious” apologized to fans shortly after the news broke, explaining that “obstacles outside of our control” led to UFC's decision, and just a day later, Chandler took to his social media to seem to reassure fans that he would still be fighting at UFC 303.

Conor McGregor Rumors End After UFC 303 Press Conference Postponed
Notably, Chandler's post made no mention of his opponent or the recent developments that have led fans to question whether their fight will still take place, and the only photo McGregor has shared since his press conference briefing is a photo with his family.
Chandler has been determined to fight McGregor since starring as his opponent's coach in season 31. Ultimate FighterThis matchup, which was supposed to take place after the conclusion of last year's show, took much longer than expected to actually be booked.
Speculation is still rife on the internet as to whether the main event of UFC 303 is in jeopardy, and fans will just have to wait for further updates from UFC and the fighter in question in the weeks before the event takes place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
