Heck of a Morning: What in the world is going on with Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler?

Islam Makhachev and Dustin Poirier’s 20-plus minute battle in the main event of UFC 302 certainly saved a lackluster card, and while the MMA community continued to appreciate the greatness of the fight throughout Sunday, the UFC 303 press conference in Dublin was postponed ahead of Conor McGregor’s return against Michael Chandler.

On an all-new edition of Heck of a Morning, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck discusses the roller coaster weekend, Makhachev’s tremendous win over Poirier, the challenger’s gutsy performance and his fighting future. Additionally, listener topics include McGregor vs. Chandler, whether or not the fight does end up happening on June 29, the speculation surrounding it, what the backup plan could be if the bout is scratched, the chances Makhachev moved up to welterweight to challenge for a second title in his next fight, Dana White saying Jon Jones is the best fighter in the world right now, and much more.

You can listen live to Heck of a Morning Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 a.m. ET on the MMA Fighting Twitter Spaces.
