UFC 303 adds 2 more fights for Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler card
UFC 303 caps off International Fight Week 2024 with Conor McGregor vs. Michael Chandler in the main event, and more fights are now being added the summertime event.
Middleweight prospect Joe Pyfer makes his return after suffering his first UFC loss to Jack Hermansson back in February, which ended his five-fight win streak overall.
Pyfer faces Canadian powerhouse Marc-Andre Barriault, who comes into the fight with a 2-2 record in his past four fights, including wins over Julian Marquez and Eryk Anders.
In the strawweight division, submission specialist Gillian Robertson looks to build on her recent win over Polyana Viana when she faces longtime veteran Michelle Waterson-Gomez.
Waterson-Gomez has been a mainstay on the UFC roster since 2015, however she’s fallen on harder times lately. The 38-year-old veteran has dropped her past four fights in a row, and sports a 1-6 mark overall in her past seven fights.
The upcoming fight against Robertson might be a make-or-break moment for Waterson-Gomez to continue moving forward with her UFC career.
Pyfer vs. Barriault and Robertson vs. Gomez-Waterson join the UFC 303 lineup, with the card set to take place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. More matchups are expected to be announced for UFC 303 in the coming weeks.
