His planned return against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 was scrapped last year after he pulled out due to a toe injury.Chandler has long been the frontrunner to face McGregor. However, longtime rival Nate Diaz has also put his name forward, pushing for a trilogy that has been unresolved since their rivalry began in 2016.Chael Sonnen critiques Conor McGregor’s presidential strategyChael Sonnen says Conor McGregor is making a serious mistake in his presidential bid by promising to send every bill back to the people.Sonnen argues that giving people too many options creates confusion and slows decision-making. He compares it to a car lot where too many choices overwhelm customers instead of delivering results.Speaking on his YouTube channel, Sonnen said:"He says, 'I will not pass any bill through without sending it back to the people.' There is always a mistake made in business to let people have it their way and to let people have options. One of the worst things that you can do is ask the consumer what they want."He added:"It’s a big mistake to think that people are paying attention, and it’s a big mistake to think that we live in a democracy. We do not live in a democracy. That is something that you’ve put in your heads. We live in a republic and there’s a massive difference."
