Lot of respect for Chandler as a warrior as a huge DP fan, but him saying that they were “slippery” and that’s why he got his back taken is discrediting Poirier. He blocked the hook with his right hand, got into top position, and then transitioned to the back locking in his own hooks. Chandler tried to grapple this fight and got outgrappled after getting outclassed on the feet. It happens.

Every fight he goes out there swinging like a madman, walking into punches with zero setups. He throws looping hooks that leave him open and has zero understanding of range and the benefits of straight punches. It so disapointing that an athelete with such incredible gifts and work ethic just doesn't use his brain with his fights. You don't get better nor healthier if you go to war every time you step in the octagon.
Studio looks great I'm not gonna say it..... We know he knows it's that time
Chandler will absolutely be excellent commentator.
See at the top! What michael chandler said to you he dustin poirier as he was fishing hooking his upper lip lol

The way you can know for sure that chandler will never become an mma judge is the fact that he’s actually willing to openly address criticism about him and give explanations for why he did what he did when it’s criticized

So many judges give bad explanations in their own small channels or their social media profiles. Chandler is giving some of those bad explanations. He has all the makings of a good judge. He also takes enough damage to have a non functioning brain when he takes up the job, which is another criteria to be one.
Chandlers a BEAST!
Modern day Gladiator and a Quality Human-being right there!

Love this dude. And what he said about the biggest fight is him v.s Conor is true. There is not a bigger fight for Conor Than Chandler. Hopefully Conor is able to do it at 155 lb instead of 170 lb . It would mean more and be a bigger fight at 155 lb.

@@MS-mr4zm this matchup was hot back when Masvidal won the BMF Belt. It was still hot after the first Usman fight. Masvidal v.s. Conor doesn't seem to be as exciting now. I would be more interested in Conor v.s. Gaethje or Olivera at 155 LB instead. I would like to see if Conor still has it at 155 LB . 170 LB fights for Conor are not as interesting at this time in my view.

I love how optimistic Chandler is and I do believe that Conor will appreciate what he brings to the table for a big fight.The best way to do it is probably 155ers fighting at 170LBS so they don't have to cut weight and you could have some great fights with Chandler,Oliviera and many other's including some 170LBS fighter's like JORGE MASVIDAL if Conor is ready to come back then it's always interesting when he's there it makes for better fights,interviews,press conference the whole lot is better with Conor involved.If they make a documentary about Chandler coming to the UFC it should be called something like THE ETERNAL OPTIMISTIC 1
Chandler skill for skill probably top 3 LW in UFC right now, had he fought smart he is a dangerously explosive fighter
He is been sucking up for Connor since day 1 and i still feel he is never gonna get it
Mike "no fight IQ" Chandler
Speak up or get closer to the mic Brett. You’re hard to hear in interviews from this location
9:22 even his facial motions he looks like Dustin Porrier
Good interview! Chandler is always a caveman 💪💪
The people saying Mike shouldn't fight this explosively are not necessarily mocking him, or talking down on him. I want him to be calmer because I want to see him win. And it would be a shame if his losses were because he's not performing at his best.

Exactly. In bellator he was known as a winner and champion. And now in the UFC he's only worried about being exciting. Seems weird to me. He's fought the top of the division though so I think if he faces some of the 5-10 guys he gets the wins.
