Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler will have a chance to send the hype for their UFC 303 into overdrive with a press conference less than a month from the event.
The UFC will travel to Dublin on June 3 for a press conference with McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC), Chandler (23-8 MMA, 2-3 UFC) and UFC CEO Dana White in what should certainly be a wild scene at 3Arena. The press conference is scheduled to begin at noon ET/9 a.m. PT.
“I haven’t been to Ireland in a while,” White said in his announcement on X. “The last time I was there was for McGregor vs. Mayweather presser, and it was incredible. And I expect this to be the same.”
UFC 303 takes place June 29 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The main card, headlined by McGregor vs. Chandler in a five-round welterweight bout, airs on pay-per-view following prelims on ESPN and ESPN+.
The press conference will mark the first time McGregor and Chandler have been in the same room since they were coaches on “The Ultimate Fighter” reality series in early 2023.
Tickets for the press conference will be available May 29 at 5 a.m. ET at Ticketmaster.ie.
