As the MMA world continues to speculate as to if and when Conor McGregor and Michael Chandler will indeed fight, the latter has called out his fellow TUF coach.

McGregor has yet to compete since July, 2021, when he snapped his leg in a bout with Dustin Poirier. The former featherweight and lightweight champ ended up leaving the USADA testing pool, as he recovered from his broken leg, and reportedly hasn’t re-entered the program.

USADA requires fighters to be tested for six months after they exit and return to the program, and as a result, there’s been widespread speculation as to whether McGregor and Chandler will fight in 2023.

More recently, Chandler shared out the video below, in which he called out McGregor over his reported, USADA testing status.

In May, USADA announced it had been in contact with McGregor’s camp and that they expected the controversial star to re-enter the testing program soon.
