While not official, UFC president Dana White is looking to pair Conor McGregor with Michael Chandler.

The former champions would likely meet in 2023 after McGregor has fully-healed from his injuries suffered in a loss to Dustin Poirier.

According to SportsBetting.ag, McGregor would be a -155 favorite in the battle, with Chandler checking in at +135.

McGregor has dropped his last two, both coming at the hands of Dustin Poirier via TKO. He was stopped in July after suffering a nasty leg injury.

Since starting his career 18-2, McGregor has gone just 3-3, including a loss to Floyd Mayweather in his boxing debut.

Chandler has lost three of his last four, including a November submission defeat at the hands of Poirier.

The two have been at each other on social media and in interviews for several years now.
