Justin has changed his style from head hunting brawler with no head movement, to a brawler with head movement and patience. If Chandler does the same he can beat ‘em all.
If Chandler can mix in the takedowns and threat of TD like he did against Hooker, hes gonna be way harder to beat against these lightweights. I wanna see more Chandler ground and pound, just squashing his opponents hips like Volk does.
@@johncutie5769he tried to mix in takedowns with Dustin and ended up gassing out and being submitted.
@@kimjong699he needs to stop doing unnecessary shit
What a crap analysis is not what he tried to do against Poirier. How that ended casual?
Я был бы очень рад если бы Ислам Махачев ушел в полусредний вес ,и Майкл стал чемпионом в легком весе
У Чендлера есть все чемпионские навыки
Would have never thought of Michael Chandler to be such a skilled fight commentator! Petition to get him on the bench with Jon Anik and Joe Rogan!
Once he retires he’s 100% got a job with the UFC or the ESPN commentary team
When he retires no problem
Why when he retires? Lots do commentary years before they call it quits
Well who’s the color commentator at that point? The color commentator is the most important because you have to have comedic relief usually. Joe and anik are just organically funny by not funny enough. That’s why you can’t replace DC because he’s the best at the color commentator role.
Chandler's performance in the ultimate fighter feels good to retire as a coach.
I was rooting for Poirier, but I stood in awe for minutes after that finish it was unbelievable. Strong Wonderboy/Edwards vibes with that hidden kick behind a cross. No one could see this coming.
And mega props to Chandler man, I absolutely love when a fighter believes in himself enough to give other fighters some respect.
When are we going to see Michael Chandler 2.0? He is the most exciting but could have beaten both Justin and Dustin.

i no enjoi but he try his best his branes four make convenience and four penetrashin one another man with feet my dear. i am so proud to be youre friendly.
LW is most stacked division imo. It's insane how talented the top guys are. Gaethje, Chandler, Poirier, Islam, Charles etc! It's crazy 🤯 Happy for Justin he's awesome.
135 is more stacked imo
@@whatzittooya2943135 is ass lol
McGregor too
Welter weight imo is way crazier if u look 1-10
Ummm, Dariush and Fizeiv????
Excellent breakdown Mike thank you! awesome hearing your take on other fights, keep these coming!👊
Hey Mike! Gaethje threw 2 high kicks in the first round! Dustin was doing the same, trying to take out Gaethje with a kick. A lot of times Gaethje leans down when he is avoid punches and dustin threw at least 2 kicks to try to catch gaethje on those moments. I guess they understood each others intentions and that's maybe why justin insisted on the high kick.
Spot on there buddy. I saw the same thing
Yerp, you could even hear Dustin’s corner telling him to throw the knee when we Justin came in and ducked down like that. They both had the correct reads on each other, but something had to give
Ok armchair expert
By the end of the 1st round, you hear Dustin's corner telling him to do what Gaethje ended up doing xd, they pointed that Gaethje ducks too much when avoiding punches and asked Poirier to kick high, funny enough I didn't heard the corner tell Poirier that he wasn't checking the high kick either lmao
Most likely Justin was throwing they kicks to set up the leg kicks but knocked him out instead
Thanks for doing this Mike! When has a guy that's actively in it done videos like this? It gives the fans an inside look and hear how a top active guy in the sport breaks it down and analyze things. Really cool stuff.
Good to see you making videos came at the perfect time
Really enjoying the fight breakdowns you do Mike, keep up the great content dude.
Excellent video quality on several different platforms. Well done sir!
Loving your content bro! Keep up the amazing work 👏👏
Love your analysis and attention to detail within these fights Mike.
I know for a fact when the sad day comes and you retire from combat, I would love to see you right behind the desk with the headset beside the octagon.
Also, dying to see you fight again soon
this content is amazing. I recently came across you and Bisping's page. Awesome stuff.
Michael is very well spoken and very informative while breaking down key points in fights. Great content!
Everything is on point, thanx for the breakdown Mike, keep it coming, great content.
Been waiting for this!
Excellent commentary, spot on - love listening to your style of fight breakdown, keep it up bud I'll be watching 👍
Dude I love you! This channel can be best describes as follows:
- Respect
- Competent
- Honest
- Authentic
Not to take anything away from your experience, you have the perspective of a seasoned veteran, versus an active fighter at the top of their game! To be able to convey your knowledge and perspective with the academic level prowess you display is as refreshing as it is impressive! Thank you for this and best of effort on all your future endeavors!❤
Michael love your podcasts. I am a huge fan of yours. You handle yourself so well and are so well spoken. I’ve been watching the UFC since 93 and it’s too bad you didn’t spend your entire career over here. Love the podcast brother.
That's Mike
Loving the content man
Please keep it coming it's awesome hearing an actually ufc competitors opinion on things and your breakdown.
Just wanna say; this is a really viewer friendly way to explaining fighting to casual fans, yet also engrossing for long term fans and hardcore. Nice 👌🏻 good luck with the future man
Micheal, been a fan since you showed up. Learned about you as a man in the last few years. Solid bro. You are on. God bless. Respect from Michigan bro
Great episode! Thank you Michael 👍
Keep this up, Mike. I really enjoyed hearing your analysis of the fight. Commentary should be in your future when you're done fighting.
Michael you do a great commentating MMA and UFC keep up the great work my friend
Doing a good job on the podcast dude keep it going you’ll get better each video
Dude! This was a TRULY EXCEPTIONAL breakdown! Thank you very much. Stay Safe, Strong and Healthy, ...would love to see you win the belt Bro!
It’ll be sad day when these two guys retire… same for when Mike retires. I hope it’s no time soon for entertainment purposes, cuz all three are so damn fun to watch!
Mike will probably retire before justin and dustin unfortunately
So happy for Chandler! He would make an excellent announcer for the UFC after his fighting career. He is a good company man!
Hit the UFC with a storm.
@@dammaguy1286 Yes, people cannot fight fathertime, no matter how strong they are. 39 is the edge for anyone under welterweight
I vote we replace Rogan on the commentary team with Mike.
@@gajorg69 I watch nearly EVERY Fight Card including buying PPVs ( until the price increased to $79.99 ) anyway the best part of a PPV is Rogan commentating. The other Fight nights or PPVs outside the USA without him ALWAYS feel as if something is missing. I hope Rogan NEVER RETIRES and he still calls the PPVs when he's 80yrs old.
Keep updating us with this!
See you on the TOP!
Always luv ur breakdowns
Dude- Fantastic production. See you at the top.
Lot of guys breaking down these fights. Don't know if anyone is doing it as well as you. You give a lot of insight. Without all the unnecessary hype. Nice work.
Love u bro
Your are the man and I love watching you fight win or lose your the best
Great breakdown! Thank you Michael
I enjoy listening to your thoughts and predictions on fights and fighters.
I think your on point with Justin Gaethje, it'll be hard to stop his momentum now.
Your still one of my favorite fighters and look forward seeing you in the octagon again getting your hand raised.
Stay solid bro.
Your video last weak is what put me over the edge on Justin. I cleaned up pretty well on a parlay with him, Lewis and Pereira. Thanks man!
Your fight IQ is amazing and it’s great the way you articulate the game making it digestible for fans of the sport! Really enjoyed listening to both pods pre & post fight👌
Did you just say Michael Chandler has amazing fight IQ, that's a first 😆🤣
Go tell Josh Thomson that 🤣
Love the breakdown man!!
Dam these are high quality Michael
Great breakdown as usual, Mike!
No one gives Whittaker the credit he deserves for the same side head kick combination. Edwards had the flashier KO, but Whittaker has utilised it so much more effectively across his career.
I agree with you and your predictions are so smart and on point
Definitely on Michael! Great breakdown. . God bless. Stay safe .
Banging review from another super exciting fighter!
Great analysis.
GREAT analysis! See you @ the top champ 🐐
Awesome video, Mike has great presence on the mic!
Great call, got a to see a 3rd fight for sure down the line!
Excellent work as usual!! 200,000 subs by December!!
💪🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ur awsome 🙏 keep doin whqt u do
Mike you are a fuckn savage. Substitute you in with either of them and it's still a BMF title fight. Your fights with these two were insane. Thank you for all the hard work
I really like your podcast, Michael. It helps us get to know you better. Good job! Gaethje fights are so good they stay with me for days. Your fight against him was awesome!
Unexpectedly refreshing commentary by a LEGEND ♥️✊️
Great video
Nice breakdown and analysis.
Great vid
Great break down mike
Great breakdown 🙏🏻
Best breakdowns thankyou Mr chandler
Awesome!! I was hoping you'd make a video like this right away. But Mike, how did you react emotionally like the instant it happened, were you just in shock, were you jumping up in joy? Lol I definitely was screaming super loud at a Buffalo Wild Wings that moment Herb called it off!
Michael Chandler,
You are such an awesome addition to the UFC! Great in everything you have taken on: Fighter, commentator, coach, analysis, role model, etc.
Be careful to watch out for your future after fighting though... People love the great fights that you put on, but many don't consider the future consequences of those brutal head shots.
Mike should be in ufc comentary when he finishes his fighting career. Great breakdown!
I also had Justin winning that fight. The Justin that fought Dustin the first time literary had taking punches with his forehead as a defensive strategy. He was never out of the red zone. Notice this fight he was on his back foot most of the fight.
@adamobrien7294 I agree. Everyone is saying Dustin won the first because after the jab distracting Justin's vision, he was wobbled by the left. Justin was landing 4 punch combo's. Also, I don't think anyone counts leg kicks as significant strikes. If that counts, there is no way Dustin won the first. Dustin is a stud. Justin is on a mission.
💯 most anticipated breakdown from the man himself
Excellent content Mike. You've really made me a big fan since joining the UFC. I'll admit I was skeptical if you could hang with the top competition but you've surprised a lot of people and always deliver a great fight, win or lose. Keep doing what you're doing sir!
crazy ass fight good shit mike
So good for the breakdown🔥
A lot of great points in this vid. Light weight is the most exciting division, has the biggest wars and the top 20 is gnarly. Also i've disagreed with Herb Dean's decisions before but he was amazing in this one. Nice vids Mike, looking forward to your next fights!
I also hope that Olivera can beat Islam, after seeing what Volk did to him I hope Olivera works on his strength and gets the win
Gaethje's submission defense is what keeps him from winning the world title at the moment
Cardio is what kept him from winning the title against Khabib and Charles rocked him on the feet before
@@trollof229antthevariable9cardio? Wtf bro, he got finished not because of cardio, but because of lack of skill to defend a sub
@jakob9913 these casuals man o my god
@@rakinchowdhury194 obv theres always more experts than casuals tho :)
I think he was close to finishing do Bronx in their fight and started swinging for the fences, huge mistake that I still can't believe happened. Especially since he's been so composed in all his other wins the past few years
Great breakdown
Appreciate ya!
great analysis from a great fighter Mike Chandler.. class act and a champ in his own right!
Dang. Did not think I can be a bigger fan of you bro. You need to be on the broadcasting team. People underestimate how hard it can be to solo and just talk into a mic.
It pretty much never crossed my mind that Justin Gaethje would finish Dustin Poirier by a head kick, but it feels pretty good to get surprised, Gaethje indeed improved leaps and bounds since the first fight with Poirier, and as for Poirier, he's definitely still elite even though he got caught and KOed. Pretty sure there's a good chance they'll meet again for a third fight.
I went for Dustin but respect/love Justin. Thought the only way Justin would win was by getting Dustin to get reckless. Never by a cross head kick, grew my love for the sport even more than before! Hoping for a third now
nobody thought chandler would head kick ko tony either
Hey Michael, Can you make a recent video review on your fight against Eddy Alvarez fight 1 ?
Michael I think your prediction is on point!
That's a sound prediction. I agree fully good sir. 🤛👊🤜
After the fight with Fiziev Justin was like “lemme add headkicks to the arsenal”😂
You did amazing fights with both BMF contenders.
Nothing in comparison to the furguson nugget tho 😂 such a respectful and humble dude I can't wait to see you fight later this year 💪🤞
Hey Mike, will you be at UFC Nashville this week? I'd love to grab a picture with you if you don't mind.
Like Justin said himself, he has matured as a fighter, which really showed in that fight. Either way, huge respect to both of these incredible fighters.
I would like too see you Mike do more of this movement angle stuff instead of your recent all out brawling going for broke all the time.
Chandler you got a voice meant for analysis. Love these vids
Gaethje = Rock
Olivera = Paper
Makachev = Scissors
Spot on chandler .. Keep up great breakdowns 💯
I'm surprised more people aren't talking about how Justin likely had to learn the 'Same hand in to same side kick' combo to help Usman prepare in sparing, for Usman v Edwards 3 🤷♀
Great breakdown, new sub here. Huge fan Mike, I like your style. Whenever McNuggets grows a pair and steps up you will beat his ass. And I can't wait!
Its a skill to talk this objective while also fighting in the same organisation and weightclass..
It’s crazy to think that you’ve fought both of these dudes Mike. You’re a savage!
And got fkn worked by both, yet he still runs his mouth like he got the W's. Dumbass fangirl
Honest analysis
Mike, please please have live highlights of the fighters you’re talking about AND YOUR highlights. I think it would add a little pop to your content brother.
I liked that Justin was immediately standing up after the one shot on Poirier, the shot he did drop was exclusively in the moment. You could see that he was standing up rather than going downwards with his knees.
as a big fan of the old K1 days of Peter Aerts, Remy Bonkasky, Jerome LeBanner etc, I'm not surprised. the rear high kick is overwhelmingly powerful if done right, surprised more people don't throw it
Solid breakdown as always Michael Chandler 👏👏👏 Would love to see you face Justin Gaethje in a match for the BMF championship 🫡
god forbid
Chandler is a NMF contender for shure)
@@cheesypumpernickel5568Not during his fight with poirier
Micheal, what do those leg kicks from Justin feel like by the end of the fight? I gotta know how bad it is.
good one
Herb with the soccer sliding tackle highlight of the night!
U da man mike!
Ya know Mike...As crazy as it sounds to hear you say Justin will be a lightweight camp while Islam is still a fighter I actually think you're right. I think if his takedown defense holds up then he can definitely get it done. He has the stand up and the chin to take the belt.
Justin is not beating islam
@@OGTwistok….i mean short volk peacing him up and if volk had the Power of gaethje than good night….but we will see…would be a banger of a fight
@@OGTwist Islam got knocked out cold by some unranked guy who no one knows if he's even competing in any organization Islam is going to catch an L in the next 12months
I actually like Justin's odds against Islam. Definitely no worse than Charles. And Justin can catch him better than almost anyone else in the division.
@@gajorg69Charles has to much of a glass jaw to stay a champ
