In two of the images he posted from the UFC’s Apex facility, the two competitors could be seen gazing intensely at one another, while in two more, they could be seen laughing. But, there was still an intensity hidden behind the smiles. White claims that a physical altercation between the two may have occurred during the shooting of TUF 31 due to McGregor’s entry into the cage after a fight.

TUF 31 will premiere on May 30, 2023, and run until Aug. 15, 2023. According to early reports, McGregor and Chandler will fight in September, and there has yet to be any information to contradict that plan.

UFC News round up: Israel Adesanya reacts to UFC 286

Kamaru Usman and Israel Adesanya entered the year 2023 as previous champions who had made five attempts to recapture their titles. Adesanya recently commented on the title match between Leon Edwards and “The Nigerian Nightmare” at UFC 286.

The top-ranked middleweight commented on his YouTube channel: “I’m just relieved that nobody was gravely wounded. I wasn’t observing it to gain points. It was a close battle, but when I scored the first two, I was like, “Oh, oh, oh,” when the point was taken away. Although I’m unsurprised, I predicted a draw would occur. Leon winning is not surprising to me.”

UFC News round up: Alex Pereira trolls Khamzat Chimaev

On Twitter recently, Alex Pereira made fun of Khamzat Chimaev. About the destiny of the Chechens, he made fun of the uncertainty. Against Israel Adesanya at UFC 287, the Brazilian will be making his first title defense. On the other hand, “Poatan” is making fun of a different foe. The UFC middleweight champion has a new prey: Khamzat Chimaev. It is accurate to say that the Chechen wrestler hasn’t formally changed his classification yet, which is why he is being mocked.

Khamzat Chimaev stated a few weeks ago that he desired to compete against the welterweight winner of the contest between Leon Edwards and Kamaru Usman, which runs counter to Chimaev’s earlier claims, which suggested that he intended to gain 84 kg. In that case, Khamzat was made fun of by the middleweight champion, who wrote, “Looks like this guy is in a maze and doesn’t know where to go.”

Marlon Vera vs Cory Sandhagen details

On March 25, Cory Sandhagen and Marlon “Chito” Vera will square off at UFC Fight Night. At the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas, the bantamweight match will be the main event of the evening. Vera (20-7-1) enters the game with a brutal knockout victory over Dominick Cruz in August, while Sandhagen (15-4) is coming off a fourth-round knockout win over Song Yadong in September.

The women’s bantamweight fight between Holly Holm and Yana Kunitskaya, the women’s flyweight fight between Maycee Barber and Andrea Lee, the featherweight fight between Alex Caceres and Nate Landwehr, and the middleweight fight between Chidi Njokuani and Albert Duraev are also on the main card.
