The highly anticipated UFC 303 fight card continues to take shape, with the main event featuring former two-division champion Conor McGregor taking on Michael Chandler in a welterweight bout. The event is scheduled to take place at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on June 29 as part of the UFC’s annual International Fight Week. One of the latest additions to the card is a bantamweight matchup between Mayra Bueno Silva and Macy Chiasson. Bueno Silva, ranked No. 3 in the UFC women’s bantamweight division, is coming off a title fight loss to Raquel Pennington, while Chiasson, ranked No. 7, is coming off a submission win over Pannie Kianzad.
Conor McGregor will be making his return to the Octagon after a long layoff due to a broken leg suffered in his last fight against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264 in July 2021. Despite his recent setbacks, McGregor remains a marquee attraction in the sport with a career record of 22-6. His opponent, Michael Chandler, is also looking to bounce back from a loss to Dustin Poirier in his last outing. With a record of 23-8, Chandler will be eager to get back into the win column and make a statement against the Irish superstar.
In addition to the main event, the UFC 303 card will feature a light heavyweight bout between former champion Jamahal Hill and Khalil Rountree Jr. The event promises to deliver a mix of intriguing matchups and high-level competition for fans to enjoy. As the anticipation builds for UFC 303, ticket prices have been set, and McGregor has opened as the betting favorite against Chandler. With the addition of more fights to the card, including Bueno Silva vs. Chiasson, fight fans can expect a night of action-packed entertainment at one of the most highly anticipated events on the UFC calendar.
