- When I entered the UFC, this was the top 5 in my division, with Dan Hooker in 6th.

I wasn't a fan before the UFC run, but I am now. Chandler is must see and guaranteed to be entertained.
Facts
If you watched him in Bellator and watched one of his Eddie Alvarez fights you would be a fan for life.
i’m the opposite. i want to see him at his best, which was at Bellator
@@stockchartart1147Absolutely!!! Phenomenal fights!!
Honestly, I have NEVER understood people saying Chandler didn't deserve that title shot. He was a 3x Bellator world champion who had finished two former UFC lightweight champions. He had just demolished a guy right outside the top 5 who had fought incredibly evenly with Poirier. Poirier wanted the Conor trilogy, Gaethje had just fought for the title and been finished, Tony had just been dominated by Oliveira. The UFC is filled with these kinds of windows of opportunity. Chandler took it and put on a damn good show against Oliveira, as good as Gaethje or Poirier, which says something even if he lost.
ye literally as he was saying it i was having flashbacks to that exact card in texas.... Tony just lost to beniel in a 3 round decision and kinda made everyone sad. And we had all been used to seeing dominant chain wrestling and ground and pound.
it was without a doubt, no questions asked the best match up for the lightweight title that coulda have possible happened considering everything you just said. he absolutely did deserve the title shot as the 4th ranked contender and former champion. Especially if your current champ retires... and the #1 and #2 either just fought for the belt or lost their last fight.
edit to say: Mcgregor had just dropped out of the rankings after the second poirier lost. Had conor not lost that fight.... its arguable they would have skipped over chandler who was ranked 5 at the time. I also think Rafael Dos anjos lost to Rafael Fiziev around this time... making Chandler the ranked 4 contender... because at the time Islam was ranked 6. So ufc 262 happened before Islam beat bobby green for his title shot. and by that time Charles had beat Poirier and gaethje back to back and lost the belt to the scale. It is arguable also that the next title shot eliminator would have to be a rematch or an out of top 5 ranked opponent. Cause they all fought each other after chandler Knocked out tony
Finally a real true mma fan! 🎉❤ I just appreciate this comment so much!
It was literally his second fight in the UFC though. I'm a big fan of his but it's a bit of a strange move.
History has proven he didn’t deserve the title shot. He beat Dan Hooker who is nowhere near a title shot and lost to every single fighter he competed against for that title shot
@@reallymakesyouthink but he literally set up and stepped up and took the opportunity for the #3 and #4 to fight for the title after the champion vacated the belt. It is not chandlers problem that Dustin didnt want to fight for the belt and Justin sat out and didnt fight again after he lost his title fight.
he also made it possible for the rightful person to have the belt at the time. Charles' title run is most entertaining ive ever seen in my 6 years of MMA watching and several decades of film watching and its because he fought chandler. He deserved the shot or your invalidating the work of another man and organization
Nothing but respect for you Mike. You really did that shit
@@LIIIIIFE you probably wait till after the fights to watch them on youtube
@@LIIIIIFEwhen did I say you could speak incel? I already put you in the ground the other day remember ?
@@troyryangolf He's not wrong.
@@LIIIIIFEhe put all of them in trouble, how's that being dismantled?
@@jonredcorn862 He set out to fight the toughest guys while being the most entertaining fighter. Y’all don’t listen at all.
"Do you put yourself in the fire everyday?"
Great quote that got me motivated to get stuff done because I haven't been putting myself in the fire I've been looking towards the water.
Thanks Mike!
I want to hear Michael Chandler say “I want to achieve the UFC World Championship.”… enough of this “[i wanna impact you / entertain you], etc.” *Michael,* you’re world champion level with an underrated high-fight-iq. Fight hard *TO WIN!*
Bro just needs to preserve energy and stop trying to be show pony for the fans
He’s not in the same level as the daggy boys.
Lol he doesn’t do what you want. He does what he wants. You must not be throwing yourself into the fire everyday worrying about another man’s decisions 😅
@@charlesdobronxcharlesdobro4660 Michel Chandler has the drive to beat anyone, including the Dagestanis. MMA is a fun sport to watch because the winner of the match is the one who puts his tactics and strategy together the best. What enables a fighter to do this is his *preparatory training before the fight.* This involves being fully mentally engaged during practices and not just going through the physical motions. Michael Chandler has the ability to become the UFC World Champion. #YesChandlerCan!
@@lowlowseesee Are you implying Michael Chandler does not want to achieve a UFC world championship? 😳
He definitely did do exactly what he said he would this man is absolute legend and warrior and has my utmost appreciation respect and thanks
Appreciate you Mike. You might not be a UFC champ yet but you are everything else. Truly a stand up guy. I'm here for it, we all are. We want to see YOU at the top
Very inspirational, both as a fighter and on the mic!
Truly inspirational words as usual thanks Iron Mike.
Hey chandler you have the fight IQ of a rock, sometimes.
Thats why you are my favorite fighter, by far! You are a machine in the gym, conditioned to the gills, and explosive af!
Love watching you!
He's not dumb, he just came to put on a show.
@@seanmatthewkinghe's not dumb at all,but if he fought a bit smarter,chilled on the showmanship a bit,he could make it a bit further for sure.
Right I just dnt get it as far as his fight IQ goes, coz he's very intelligent, but doesn't fight like it smh ....
@@YearsOVDecay1 agreed!
Coming from someone with zero fight iq
Mike you’re one hell of a tough guy ! Throwing yourself into the fire every time is so inspiring ! God bless you !
Hey Champ, true MMA fans recognize your skills, worth and ultimately how exciting it is to watch you fight -Period. No nonsense, no BS.
And like I heard you say before: you are here for a good time, not a long time (and you have delivered that in every single fight you have had in the UFC). That's a fact.
Much respect Mike.
Keep on keeping on!!!
You bring excitement to the game. You've been a blessing, especially when the big stage presented itself to you. Beyond the fight game, I look forward to even bigger things from you. It's hard to believe you're a fighter when you elaborate on anything and everything. My IQ increases after every monologue from you. We love you in and out of the ring. You are a champion of champions. No belt required.
Everyone has an opinion and it’s so easy for people to be the armchair quarterback. The fact is your style of fighting is extremely successful because very few people can withstand the onslaught you bring inside the cage. Beyond that the excitement you bring wins the masses and that opens up opportunities even without the belt. I think you’re taking the right approach in terms of not letting the naysayers words land. It’s just noise and you are doing what 99.9% of what other professional fighters could never do, let alone what the average armchair critic could do in their best dreams.
You're a champion Mike. A man of your word. A great role model to all of us. I certainly respect you Mike. Thank you for your sharing through this channel too!
Well said brother. Much love and respect for the way you carry yourself and the positivity you promote.
Hey Mike great job I see you are a person who definitely has a lot of dicipline and are still looking ahead to your final goal in the fight game and gunning for that analyst position in the UFC when your masterpiece is finally completed.Good luck brotha you are a hard working warrior regardless of your record because in the end thats not what matters it's how you represent yourself.piece out
you've been inspiring me to do what ive been putting off thank you.
Thank you chandler definitely needed this. You are such inspiration for growing men! God bless you
Awesome channel, keep it up you’re an inspiration!!
"You'll do what you're told" 🤣
You're a G Mike! I remember being excited as hell when I heard you were coming to UFC, and you haven't disappointed. Love your fights and channel as well. God bless 🙌
Every ufc fight u had I tuned in .👊🏿👊🏿 . You did exactly what u said nothing but respect.
You are a good man! Thank you, Michael.
Very inspirational thank you
Respect increased after this video. Glad you did it! See you at the top!
Such a good mindset, wasn’t a fan before he ufc but your one of my favourite fighters atm
Do your thing man I'll watch every fight you have❤
Good luck in the future Michael, I enjoy your fights and podcast.
Much respect for you and your journey. Keep it up! Greetings from 🇧🇷
what Michael accomplished in his mma career is staggering ,period!
Nothing but respect for you Mike. You embody what this sport should be all about: respectful violence. Gonna be missed when you're done but enjoying the hell out of the show while you're doing you thing!
bro your the most exciting fighter to watch thank you very much, i cant wait to see you fight again
Thanks bro!! Keep it up champ
Michael Chandler, you are EVERY bit of inspiring and every bit a true fighter/warrior. Nothing but love, respect and admiration for you.
A fan from Toronto that has been rooting for you since your UFC debut.
Ur one of my top fav fighters to watch bro. Besides the obvious fact that your rampage Jackson style of explosive bursts is second to none. Also I’ve noticed you literally will never show an ounce of fear. Even when ur caught and supriesed, u never ever look nervous or scared. It’s badass. Lastly bro it sucks your win lose ratio in ufc is close, but at same time It makes your fights that much more exciting! Ur always fighting one of the top 5 guys in the world, and the fact we knew it could go either way is pretty awesome makes for the best suspense and keeps us on the edge of our seat.
You may not leave the sport with the legacy or a khabib or oliveria. But the fact is, it’s your fights that i will reminisce on. If U asked me about where I was or what I was feeling during a khabib fight I couldn’t tell you anything, other then everyone watching knew he was gonna win. Now if u ask me about chandler vs gaethje I’d tell you who I was with, what bar we were at, how hot the waitress was and what a fun night it was.
There’s just a different feeling watching guys like yourself and gaethje. Best of luck bro I hope u have many more fights in the ufc. Cuz win or lose, the FANS are winning every time!
thank you so much keep training
Just found this channel and love the content. You’re a BEAST!
Lightning fast and extremely powerful. Simply amazing!
Respect brother good luck on growing the channel
man is as real as they come, huge respect for always stepping up to fight and make it super entertaining
I love this guy man !!! Man of his words 💪🏾
Thank you for your wards sir. I hope you eventually get that belt. You give it all when you enter the octagon. In my humble opinion, maybe a little too much sometimes and I feel you do it for the crowd. If that's the case, you owe us nothing and you've already given us everything in that regard. I hope your next battles allow you to reach the top.
Love you MIKE THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR INSPIRATIONAL TALKS AND KNOWLEDGE YOU SHARE TO YOUR FANS, see you at the top
@mikechandlermma brother always supported you, since your fights with Eddie Alvarez and even through the losses with will brooks. Always driven and you’ve pushed through the ranks. Pleasure seeing you champ.
hearing you say all this stuff i witnessed just shows you how fast time flys. I remember vividly when you joined the UFC. It feels like yesterday !
Big fan Mike, much love and respect. You’re an awesome inspiration and I love your career
Glad to see that your audio quality has improved so much now. I was the one who shared feedback about your breathing sounds on your very first video.
Also I like the workout of the day on Instagram. Keep releasing them. Grea motivation and great way to open the eyes for new workout.
One of my favourte fighters to watch in the UFC. Always entertaining, have rewatched your fights with Dustin Justin and Charles multiple times!
Very inspirational video your are a hard man with a big heart, I would personally like like to wish you all the best for your future 💪🏴👍
You are crushing it! My favorite fighter all time! Love you Mike!!
Love you iron mike! #walkoonmentality I needed to hear this, so motivational, I’m avoiding the fire in my life and playing it safe, that needs to change
Amazing. One of the most exciting fighters to watch. Big fan Mike.
Well said, champ. Keep up the good work 💪🏻
You are such an inspiration! Keep going Michael I love watching you fight! Love from Germany 🇩🇪
Amen brother I love watching your fights and your one of my favorite fighters
Impossible not to admire and respect this banger. Always an exciting fight, everytime.
Didn't know who you were before the UFC run, but I will ALWAYS tune in to your fights now!
You know I really respect you're owning your losses and recognizing it's all a part of just going for it. Takes guts to risk it all like you have and you've taken it on the chin like a good man. Happy to give you support. Keep it up man. Thanks for the exciting fights.
Mr. Chandler. You are amazing and you have had a great bellator AND UFC career. Even more important than that, you are helping a lot of people change their lives. You come with me in my phone everytime I travel (Walk On App). Believe me when I say you have helped me have better days. Much love and I'll see you at the top!
You're a true legend of the game!
I agree with your overall perception of your UFC-run thus far. It actually trips me out when people criticize you. Because of how you've approached fights you delivered so many BANGERS. There have been so many "good record fighters" who have brought zero feeling to people's viewing experience. They're even resented for it. I think to myself when people critique you: "You really can't please 'em all." Izzy was winning and people hated him for being "boring." Whenever it is you retire, you will most certainly be remembered as a beast and a brave man.
Hey Chandler, I love watching all your fights. Win or lose it’s always a good show!
keep the hardwork up pal see u at the top soon
You’re a true warrior wishing you the best on your career
Well said Iron Mike. I see you and appreciate you, as many do.
Mike ur the man ❤ it's always grt to see ur fghts
Thanks MC for always going all out for us the fans
Just a straight up Gladiator. Always fun to watch you fight.
thank you for your words chandler , true martial artist much respect
Big upz 2u...u will get that belt eventually
Love ya Mike! You’ve been one of my favorites since your fights with Eddie and I can’t wait to see what else you have in store for us fans!
Mike you are Real. One of my Favorite fighters singen day one. You did the Things that you talked about and have Notthing to regret. Wish you just the best for the future brother.
It’s always a pleasure watching your fights, win or lose. I know it’s going to be a balls to the wall type of brawl. Furthermore, I really enjoy the tidbits of motivational talk you drop here and there.
I do a lot of work in Deerfield and even though I live only a half hour away I stay at the Marriott across the street from Sanford/kill Cliff. Every time I’m there and out jogging I can’t help but think I may just run into you one of these days. Wishing you and your family the best and rooting for you to finally get that Conor fight.
Rock or not, you are must see tv sir and I am grateful for every time you step in the octagon. Your success isn’t measured by the outcome but by what you’ve overcome. I don’t think many people gave the thought of Michael Chandler as a UFC Lightweight top 5 staple any time of day. The fruits of your labor must taste damn good proving those people wrong, but even more so proving yourself right. Such an amazing story of you betting on yourself. You are one of the best fighters in the world, but you already knew that before coming to the UFC. Thrilled beyond belief you get to show the world. Cannot wait til you fight again!
Benn watching since your Bellator debut. I dunno what it is about you and Eddie Alvarez, but you guys brought the dog out of each other. Awesome fights. The LW division is the best its ever been IMO and your fights with all the top guys have been awesome. And when you're not making incredible fights for us, you're out there walking your talk, encouraging, inspiring AND being a great father, too. I'm a huge fan all the way around. God bless you and your family.
Hey Chandler, absolutely loving your contribution to the UFC and following your career!
Respect👊🏽
He deserves all the respect in the world. Mike is never scared sometimes to his disadvantage in fights but he is someone im always happy to see fight.
Your mindset, work ethic & dedication is so impressive and inspiring to me. Love your passionate spirit and the positive impact you're having on my way of thinking and acting. It helps me a lot to develop into the kind of man I want to be, persuing my dreams each day a little bit more intense.
Thank you and all the best wishes for what is next to come from probably your biggest German supporter! 🇩🇪🤝🏼🇺🇸
THANKS BIG MIKE
Love n Respect Mike see you at the top.
Your my opinion of the goat brother been my favorite since day one bro!!
Love all your fights CHAMP!!
Hey Mike. You have a great vibe and feel on these vids man. Keep it up. Diaz and Mas fan but as they say real recognize real. Keep up the good work.
Kudos for not backing down to any challenge, Chandler! You do put on very entertaining fights and we appreciate you for it! It'll be tough to see you crack the Top 3 of the rankings however!
You are the man Mike. Nothing but respect
even if you won´t get your titleshot, you truely have the mindset of a champion! i totally enjoy watching your channel and ur one bmf urself, you don´t need a belt ;) much love for you Mike
You are the people's champ mike i love all your UFC fights 👊🏻
Chandler always keeps it real and I respect the hell outta that much love champ!
U are really at the top living in Nashville living the dream. I been watching u since I was 13 years old .. ever time u go for it
Your true warrior n family man at heart ❤️ your fights are all amazing big up to you for doing what you said you would do. Hands down one of most brutal fighters on the roaster. Keep good work on UA-cam to
Mike will always be a real one. Much respect, dude 👊
I love these type of videos
Love this channel
Thank you Michael Chandler for being A wonderful representative of MMA. It's a pleasure to listen to your talk and even though I think that you could improve your fight IQ you're the best. Stay healthy
You're a must watch fighter no matter the opponent or the outcome, bring the energy everytime and we love it.
This is crazy man! I have all this fresh in my mind like a favorite TV Show.. I remember it was quite rocky trying to get each guy to bite. I remember there being rumors to fight Gaethje earlier.. I remember Tony and Dustin being the first guys to say No to early offers. Dan is a real one, he basically took the fight and risked his ranking against an unranked beast... like Gilbert Burns did in his division. I remember early on Bussin with the Boys the question was, Long Term who’d you rather fight Conor or Khabib? lol ...The Haters always wanna bring up Fight IQ, how about “Career IQ”.. the things you did in the time you had in the UFC is not normal... Definitely Hard Work, Chess Moves, Being a Good Person, embracing the Fans, etc.. A simple Win/Loss record doesn’t measure the intangibles. And arguably, each of your Losses in the UFC could’ve very easily been Wins. If you ask me, since joining the UFC, this whole stint so far has been one Single Win. Who else do you know on the Planet could have this type of Second Career, it’s unheard of. A Thrilling Journey it’s been so far & still goin, See You At The Top!🙌🏻☄️
Hey Chandler you are entertaining af, you go in there and fight in a way that’s risk/reward.
Your style is fan favorite and I do believe you will be champion if you wrestle more 💯
