[{"selector":"#anim-43ba5688-f392-4a4f-ad8d-d3954e7f21a9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-a05a0f41-3bc7-42e0-af99-de8b8861337a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 68.87695%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-156f2dbb-309b-4e5d-b435-990328249b84","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4d9452f0-63e6-4e35-96bd-4752790e0b41 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(53.99768509587239%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] Recently, McGregor also confirmed that he wants to fight Dustin Poirier in a 4th fight. However, it seems McGregor vs Chandler will be the next best thing for the fans.

[{"selector":"#anim-5b902bb6-64bf-4665-805f-ae283ce8fad2 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate(-18.60586233099579%, 0%) scale(1.5)","translate(0%, 0%) scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8f5b8860-45ad-4a2f-a5e9-088d353222ef","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":600,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-e13e25d3-a2c2-4797-a0d9-a1fb3986d41a","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-119.34426%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":600,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2f84248a-97e8-4bed-8228-a1d4cb8b8fda","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":600,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f49806f8-d951-4d7b-b753-9304bb94b238","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-160.35243%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":600,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Conor McGregor has put on significant weight since his last fight. So it won't be surprising to see McGregor return in a welterweight fight.

[{"selector":"#anim-9979d18f-d592-4576-9498-3c37004c6335 [data-leaf-element=\"true\"]","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-59.8124999106872%, 0, 0)","translate3d(0%, 0, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":3000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b0b98dff-0eb5-43bf-921c-87f20fe87e8d","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":600,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-42cd96ac-1246-4f23-8d90-c4a42270905e","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-122.45614%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":600,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d54401ed-3675-42dc-b786-a138c1d44d57","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":600,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ca1384f8-8b88-4c17-9e15-14362f9739bc","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-158.95197%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":600,"duration":1600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Michael Chandler has also shown interest to fight McGregor at 170 in the past as he wants The Notorious at his best.
