Amid growing speculation about the future of the event, UFC President Dana White announced his plans to fly to Dublin to meet with McGregor immediately after UFC 302. This move has led to rumors and concerns about the potential impact on UFC 303. However, White assured fans that the event is still on schedule and there are currently no changes to the fight schedule.

Neither Conor McGregor nor Michael Chandler have publicly commented on the postponement. McGregor, who has been very active on social media, has instead focused on promoting his various business ventures. The silence has only fueled speculation among fans, with many blaming McGregor for the sudden change of plans.

Reactions from fans were mixed, with some expressing frustration and others expressing support. Many expressed their disappointment on social media, criticizing McGregor in particular as the alleged reason for the postponement. The UFC's statement on social media sparked a wave of comments ranging from critical to understanding.

Despite the setback, UFC 303 remains a highly anticipated event, focusing on McGregor's return to the Octagon against Chandler and also featuring other exciting matchups such as the welterweight bout between Ian Machado Garry and Michael Page.
