Educate Me on Michael Chandler

It's hard to say because at Bellator he wasn't fighting that many elite guys, and the best guy he fought, he lost to

The best guy he fought in Bellator was Alvarez who he finished and should have won the rematch against and I say that being an Alvarez fan.

Seems to be a lot of hype around this guy, but how good is he?
I don’t follow Bellator, but I see he has a decent record. Dan Hooker is good, but is a win over him worthy of a title shot in one of the deepest divisions?

UFC is really pushing this guy down our throats. Should I bet on him or Chuck?

How about you educate yourself you inbred hillbilly fuck. What... You don’t have access to fightpass, youtube, and other sites?

Are you serious?

We got an attention whore over here. lol
 
Don’t take some random guys opinions on a fighter when you can watch almost all of his fights yourself.

you’re a weirdo man.
 
Very good wrestler, with great striking, but easily his most devastating part of his game is his power, he's easily the most powerful guy at LW, but he also has good cardio for the pace he fights at, very great athlete.
 
Rumour has it he once went surfing and chilling on the beach with Arona.

My prediction is Chandler wins. If he doesn't I would go with Oliveira winning. Slight chance of a draw. That's what I potentially see happening.

That was forever ago

Yes, a few times over his entire Bellator career he fought elite guys

So? You didn't say I couldn't bring up older fights in Bellator and Benson was still elite the first time they fought and Chandler threw him around like a ragdoll. He also should have won the first Brooks fight and both Alvarez fights. You acted like he lost to most of the elite guys he fought which isn't the case.
 
I've followed him for years.
He went to college with Woodley and askren (they're all really close friends)

Woodley picked him to beat khabib years ago.

He's mostly known for his wars with Eddie alvarez years ago

Partly the reason ufc wanted Eddie badly

How are people actually asking this stuff? Like where have you been? I’m always fucking around when I make fun of ufc casuals but it’s actually a thing. How do ppl just watch UFC? Like how is it possible to just watch one promotion when there’s so many good fighters out there? Do you honestly think the UFC is the “best of the best” and nobody else out there is any good? This really is the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen.

The UFC has a ton of great fighters but their champs are not always the best in the world and there are plenty of guys outside who can be in their top 5. You are missing a large portion of this sport if you only watch UFC. I couldn’t imagine watching McGregor as the LW champ in 2016 and actually thinking he’s the best like Gaethje and Chandler wouldn’t have come from WSOF and Bellator and smoked him easily. It’s crazy to me.

Never underestimate the power of brand names
 
Big power. Really good wrestling and top control. Underrated submission game. Solid cardio.

Questionable chin and likes to fight with his hands down.
 
Michael Chandler in a nutshell: whenever it looks like he's on the verge of proving he's really one of the best, he faceplants and proves he's not.

From a technical perspective, i think he's good at beating people up. when he punches others in the face, it hurts pretty bad. and when he kicks, it hurts too. Sometimes he punches and kicks his opponent more times than he gets punched or kicked, in which case he usually wins.

I really think if he can stick to his strategy of punching and kicking his opponents more than he gets punched and kicked, he can really go far in the UFC.

I could tell you all kinds of shit my friend. But there’s nothing like living life than telling other people about it.

good post.

Y'all don't have to act like dicks towards TS for asking what your opinion is. I didn't know Chandler wrestled at Missouri with Askren and Woodley. I learned something out of this.

I'm just saying it's hard to evaluate someone who rarely fights elite guys
