At UFC 274, Michael Chandler defeated Tony Ferguson with a solid front kick. Right after that, he called out Conor McGregor for a fight.
“Conor McGregor, I am the most entertaining lightweight on the planet. I want you at your baddest and I want you at your best, you and me at 170lbs!”
Holy sh*t. What an INCREDIBLE KO from @michaelchandler
And on top of that just delivered a truly electrifying promo that already sold tickets to his next fight, that’s not even booked yet. Light fighting, promo work is a special skill that =‘s#UFC274
He then made it clear that he is facing off against Dustin Poirier. Chandler (23-7 MMA, 2-2 UFC) hopes to earn another title shot if he gets past Dustin Poirier.
Michael Chandler’s wife Brie recently posted pool and hot tub swimsuit photos and fans absolutely loved the photos as well.
I want Islam to talk about me. I want to talk about Islam,” Chandler said on ESPN’s “DC & RC.” “I do think I have the best wrestling on this (rankings) list you’re looking at. I have the best wrestling – good old-fashioned, passionate American, D-I All-American wrestling, and I do believe I can shut down Islam and I can beat him.
“Do I deserve a title shot with a win over Poirier? It remains to be seen. It depends on my performance, and it also depends on what the UFC brass wants to do. Either way, I’m going to be ready.”
