I love chandler , and I think the dude has been one of the best decisions the ufc made in signing him over, even if he’s 2-2, but Dustin would starch him. It’s not me hating or stanning for Dustin. I think the best matchup right now for Dustin is chandler or gaethje rematch, chandler even at 170 and that would be a big money fight for chandler…but as hard as chandler hits which I think he for sure hits harder then every other lw, Poirier is just too durable man. Yes obviously chandler had the ability to shut his lights out, but chandler isnt very defensively responsible and he doesn’t have the best cardio and I think Dustin would be aware enough of the danger chandler possesses not to go brawl with him before he hurts chandler with the same shot Tony and Charles dropped him with, the check left countering that right straight except Dustin would crack him with the straight left and sleep him with the right. Just my opinion, but I think Dustin is not a favorable matchup at all for chandler and he’s much better off fighting Conor at 170 or Nate diaz for a boat load of money while having a decent enough lvl of succeeding but I’d say his odds aren’t so great with Dustin unless he catches him with some flukey shot

This guy totally gets it! All videos have been up on MMA Fighting and Michael has 10 times more views than any other interview from today! Great work young man, you're a diamond in the rough....

Hey Ariel, I just wanted to thank you for all you’ve done for MMA. I was 8 when the first UFC happened and I’ve been a fan since. There’s a small handful of people who if what they contributed was never fulfilled by someone else, MMA wouldn’t be what it is today. There’s the obvious ones like Gracie and Silva, and the undeniable ones like Dana or Lorenzo. GSP, McGreggor, the Diaz brothers. But I don’t think you get enough credit for what you did early on when it seemed no one else had an interest in doing the coverage you were doing. I think within the MMA world at this point, the majority of fighters and die hard fans would agree that you had a massive impact on the success of the UFC and other MMA promotions. My favourites are your out of studio interviews, like the one with rampage where you guys got on the subway (or was it a bus?), or when you went to Ireland and interviewed a young Connor. There’s 3 parts to MMA being successful. The most important being the roster, the fighters. Hard to name who was the most impactful fighter. Then there’s the promotion, the management, the company. Obviously Dana is the greatest in that area. And then there is the coverage, the media. You are by far the most important and impactful part of MMA media, and it could NOT have evolved into what it is now without your work. Thank you Ariel, I really appreciate the work you’ve done.

Humble and respectful! Didn't like him when he was coming from Bellator and he's one of my fav fighters now

Him and oliveria are probably my favorite of all time right now. Especially Do Bronx his story is incredible.

Chandler checks all the boxes! Exciting fights, great talker, fights often, excellent finishes!

Mike Chandler the Man!!

the more I see of Michael Chandler the more I like the guy. He is a class act which is really refreshing to see. Would love to see him fight Poirier! I actually think that is a fight people DO want to see.

"You don't make weight, you don't wrastle" 🤣 That cracked me up!

I thought the Ngannou knock out over Alistair Overheem was the most devastating knockout until I watched Ferguson go down face first. What a kick with precision. For someone to not train this kick and be able to sling it the way he did was phenomenal!!!! What a stand up dude! Not going to lie but this was tough to watch because I love Tony Ferguson too!!! Well deserved win for Chandler

Hes practiced front kicks plenty. Just wasnt part of the gameplan in camp. That wasnt the first time hes thrown a front kick. Lol

He’s a great role model for the sport and his boys.

Love the celtic top Ariel bro !

About time he gets the spotlight, well deserved 👏

I don’t blame Michael one bit for his take on Dustin. Dustin was highly disrespectful towards Chandler when Chandler first came over. He acted as though Michael didn’t deserve to be where he was. Now that Michael has gotten over with the fans and is in the spotlight Dustin wants to come out of nowhere acting like Michael is afraid of him. Forget that. If Chandler has a chance to fight Diaz take that if not he can do a number one contender fight with Beneil. He doesn’t need Dustin at this point.

@@evilkhamzat Hooker was ranked 6th and coming off a tough 5 round fight against Dustin who was number 1. Chandler came in and starched him. Chandler was then ranked 5. Gaethje was coming off a loss. Conor had just been beat by Dustin. The only people who the UFC considered for the title fight were Dustin, Charles, and Chandler. They came to Dustin first and he chose to fight Conor. He’s literally the reason Chandler got the title fight.

Circumstances should also be considered. We had all seen vitor get finished before Anderson slept him. Nobody has seen Tony get finished. Let alone finished in that facet.

All the haters can say what they want, but Ariel is the Nr.1 Journalist in MMA. And most of the fighters appreciate him for this. Chandler IS one of the most exciting additions to the UFC 🤜💥

Chandler is awesome. He deserves everything he has worked hard for he's the epitome of a good role model.

So fight smart and well spoken , love to see him as a ringside commentator.

Hope he gets the money fight he deserves. 💙🙏🏻

We must protect this man.

MOST ENTERTAINING 💯💯💯💯

How do you not love MC! Straight warrior and family man! Huge fan!

Chandler's arrival & crazy surge in popularity will have guys in Bellator along with other companies salivating to make the jump when the chance comes. Won't be as easy as he's made it look tho.

Imagine a fight being canceled literally minutes before SHOUT OUT CHANDLER for toughing out

Chandler & Whittaker are such chill dudes. Cant find how to hate any of them both

Man I liked this guy before but now I really respect him. He seems humble and doesn’t really trash talk

Chandler doesn’t want the smoke with Dustin lmaoo. He says cause Dustin disrespected him but so has Nate and you see chandler wanting to fight Nate but not Dustin. Both disrespected him but he only doesn’t wanna fight Dustin? He knows Dustin would beat him. A win over Nate at this point isn’t impressive. A win over Dustin on the other hand is

My new favorite fighter 2nd to Khamzat. I was praying so hard that Tony won, but Chandler is that guy UFC can push. He's fun to watch and he wins.

Chandler is such a respectable and humble person. It is difficult to not like him. I believe he has proven he belongs in the UFC both skill & threat wise. I say this even though I have always been a Tony Ferguson fan.

It’s not that Bellator doesn’t have good fighters, it’s just that the UFC has a lot more of them
