About 'Ultimate Fighter: Team McGregor vs. Team Chandler' Premiere

After months of uncertainty concerning his UFC career, “The Notorious” Conor McGregor is back as an “Ultimate Fighter” coach for the second time. McGregor’s first stint as coach was in Season 22 when he faced off with fellow UFC legend Uriah Faber. While McGregor didn’t have to face Faber at the end, he’ll likely have his hands full with his opponent this go-around.

Michael Chandler enters “The Ultimate Fighter” as the fifth-ranked lightweight in the world and would love nothing more than to add a victory over McGregor to his resume. Chandler has been on the outside looking in when it comes to the UFC Lightweight Championship, but a marquee victory over McGregor would put him right back in the mix.
