'Notorious' has achieved only a single victory in the span of five years.

Conor McGregor's recent UFC record is not one that he can boast about. Despite being one of the UFC's most prominent superstars, his level of activity has significantly declined. Moreover, he has emerged victorious in just a single fight over the past five years within the promotion. Since 2018, McGregor has participated in only four bouts, facing formidable opponents such as Khabib Nurmagomedov, Dustin Poirier, and Donald Cerrone.

McGregor's sole triumph came against 'Cowboy' Cerrone, who was experiencing a losing streak in his career at that time. Additionally, he faced defeat twice against Dustin Poirier in 2021, with the second bout resulting in a left leg injury that sidelined him from his most recent UFC appearance.

Given Conor McGregor's charismatic persona, it wouldn't be unexpected for fans to witness him receiving a title shot if he manages to defeat Chandler. However, Beneil Dariush holds the viewpoint that there are other active fighters who are more deserving of a title opportunity than McGregor. Only time will tell.
