Michael Chandler proposes Nate Diaz showdown at Noche UFC

If Conor McGregor isn’t able to struggle, then Michael Chandler is keen to take a look at Nate Diaz as an alternate answer.

With McGregor’s standing for a long-awaited octagon return in limbo following his UFC 303 withdrawal resulting from a toe harm, Chandler (23-8 MMA, 2-3 UFC) has been the goal of criticism for not transferring on to an alternate matchup.

It seems Chandler is now keen to look in different instructions, and has put a goal on Diaz (21-13 MMA, 16-11 UFC) after the ex-UFC star indicated he desires to return to the octagon following this previous Saturday’s boxing win over Jorge Masvidal (through X):

Sit down, Ron… higher thought – me and @NateDiaz209 struggle like actual males, whereas Conor sits on a yacht and watches on PPV in his slippers. #ufcnoche #riyadhseason

Chandler, 38, counsel a struggle with Diaz at Riyadh Season Noche UFC, which matches down Sept. 14 at Sphere.

The previous three-time Bellator champion was not a part of the names Diaz prompt for his subsequent transfer, because the Stockton slugger name-dropped Jake Paul and Leon Edwards as a part of his hit record going ahead.
