UFC fans are in for a treat.

The promotion company released a hype video for UFC 303, with the focus being the main card fight between Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler.

The trailer focused on McGregor’s early success, his broken leg from 2021 that has since kept him out of fights, and also Chandler’s successes and the other fighters on the card.

McGregor enters with a 22-6 overall record. His last two fights were losses to Dustin Poirier and he has lost four of this last seven fights after a 15-match win streak.

Chandler is 23-8 overall and also lost his last fight to Poirier. He has lost three of his last four bouts, but had won 10 of his previous 12 fights prior to the skid.

The two fighters notably have coached against each other on The Ultimate Fighter, a reality television show that focuses on the training and development of professional MMA fighters. While Chandler and McGregor were initially friendly on the show, their relationship reportedly deteriorated during filming, per UFC CEO Dana White.

All of this should make for an exciting matchup that will take place June 29 at 10 p.m. ET in Las Vegas.
