The highly anticipated summer showdown between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler, set to take place at UFC 303, has been called off. Let’s take a look at the McGregor-Chandler odds and betting lines from our top UFC betting sites before the fight was canceled.

After weeks of anticipation, the Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler fight, which was highly anticipated as McGregor’s comeback bout, has unfortunately been canceled.

Rumors of potential obstacles for the fight’s progression started circulating two weeks ago. Michael Chandler later confirmed on The Pivot Podcast that his June 29 match against Conor McGregor was indeed happening. Unfortunately, just a week later, Ariel Helwani revealed on the MMA Hour that the fight had gone through a series of uncertainties before ultimately being called off.

Neither of the fighters will be participating in UFC 303, but there is optimism that the bout could potentially take place in August or September. However, an official date has not been confirmed yet.

Before McGregor withdrew from the fight, we analyzed the odds and betting lines for the main event of UFC 303 featuring McGregor and Chandler. Stay tuned for more UFC picks throughout the summer.

McGregor vs. Chandler early pick

Michael Chandler

There is a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the 2023 TUF coaches as they prepare to face off, and ring rust is likely to be a factor. McGregor, a former two-division champ, seems to be past his prime, while Chandler has yet to reach his full potential in the UFC. However, Chandler has been putting on stronger performances recently, despite his losses, compared to McGregor who has only one win since 2016. Both fighters lost to Poirier in their last fights, but Chandler was competitive until being submitted in the third round. McGregor is not known for his submission skills, with only one victory in that manner back in 2012.

Bet365 offers the best odds at -110.
