Media Michael Chandler isn't interested in fighting Tony Ferguson in 3.5 weeks.

[GIBLERTBAPTISTA]

So he wants the fight a month later after Tony denied the fight a month earlier? What a travesty. Cut him and cancel him.

 

[EVIL WAR GOD]

Don’t care. Tony deserves a title shot.

 

[Cazador Diurno]

Fuck this diva...Tony doing him a favor by even considering fighting him

 

[LDC93]

Fucking DUCK! I wana Chandler get starched already

 

[cheesus]

Chandler shouldn't be getting an opportunity to fight Tony at this point, Tony deserves a higher profile opponent he just done the UFC a favour by fighting Justin on short notice.

 

[Apollo33]

Is he contracted to fight or to just turn down fights

 

[fightfan70]

ali manage him?

 

[Pugilism]

Fuck this guy. STILL an asshole. Send him to hold down the Asian market with Mighty Mouse.

 

[Substance Abuse]

He's doing everything he can to avoid a five round fight with Tony.

 

[Mayonnaiseandjelly]

Zzzz I never want to see chandler fight. Don’t even want this f@qq to possibly score an upset over guys that deserve their spot

[Volador]

I have no clue why people are mad or calling him a duck

Just let them bang in January, what's the issue? I'd rather see them face each other with full camps. Plus they can also serve as alternates if something happens to Dustin or Conor. Seems pretty good to me.

You think he’s a f@99? Weird that’s what comes to mind first? What makes you think that?

 

[Shoguns Prodigy**]

Hasn’t even had a single fight in ufc he thinks he runs shit already.

 

[BEATDOWNS]

Chandler fitting into the current UFC landscape nicely.

 

[avenue94]

Sounds like he might have PPV points or something similar in his contract.

 

[toowoomba]

Chandler shouldn't be matched up with top 5 yet anyway. Give him Islam 6 months from now.

Islam doesn't deserve Chandler

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Tbh

Ferguson and Porier both publicly turned down Chandler after the UFC offered him to both fighters.

I wouldn't be doing Ferguson any favors either.

 

[felmmando]

This is literally what Chandler said, that he's ready to fight in 2020 against gaethje

Chandler gave his take on the Lightweight while talking with The Schmo, “There’s a lot of different options right now,” Chandler said (transcription via MMAFighting). “I think with the way the landscape looked - you had Gaethje and Khabib with Khabib as the lightweight champion after tonight - I was thinking Tony Ferguson. But now you’ve got Jon Anik and Justin Gaethje talking after the fight. Gaethje is a gamer. Justin Gaethje is one of the greatest competitors that we will ever get to see grace the octagon . . . (and) he said he’s ready in six to eight weeks, he’s ready to fight again. He didn’t take that much damage in this fight, which is great. I’m ready in six to eight weeks, he’s ready in six to eight weeks, there’s a Tony Ferguson fight, there is The Ultimate Fighter coming up, I know that’s gonna be a big debut for ESPN.

It will no longer be 2020 in eight weeks.

It will no longer be 2020 in eight weeks.

It was when he said it Oct 24th

6-8 weeks
