Dustin is more angry at DC than Mike 😂
Fr bro started yelling at him around 7:27 😂
I’ve never seen DC wanna stir the pot so bad 😂
Still extremely emotional... You can't change someone's real personality. I think he is just a extremely emotional person.
True!
DC just started laughing so much because he knew what he was doing by asking these questions
Chandler: We don't have to hate each other to fight. DC: And I took that personally
And Poirier ain't buying it
That's what I saw too. Lol Man, DC acting kinda weird in this one.
🤣🤣🤣
@@Chadw1cKed Nawl DC know what he’s doing. This is Chandler actually being mad.
hahahah, yea
They both literally said we don’t hate eachother DC: NOW HOLD ON A SECOND
5:35 dc’s smile fading as they start getting along😂
😂😂😂😭💀💯DC’s trying to sell a show/fight and it is blatently obious
Hahaaa
Loool well noticed
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
hilarous
1:13 Chandler straight up teaching Dc how to properly do an interview
Haha yeah I love the way he laughed at his ineptitude and carried him
Shut up DC whole job is to instigate
man just asks both of them a question waiting for them to talk over each other 😂
ken TAY He’s terrible at his job. This show and commentating Great fighter. They just needed a black guy is how he got those jobs
DC has a fake personality and is biased
Chandler conducted a great interview, props to him for getting DC on as a guest.
😂
Classic 👍🏼
Dustin could learn a thing or two...contributes nothing....guy walks down the street and nobody knows who he is
Hahaha. I haven't watched it yet but now I'm excited...
😂😂😂😂
Chandlers airpods securing fighter of the year with this performance.
This comment is underrated
🤣😂🤣😂👊🏻my man
I was literally waiting for one to fall out the whole interview 🤣🤣🤣
Never heard that one before
Lmfao😂😂😂😂😂
'But but but but-but but DP, lemme ask you a question DP, but DP lemme ask you a question DP' 😂
Chandler’s Earpiece holding on for dear life 💀💀💀
Bruh that's why I been training bjj for almost 8 years and I made sure I had my ears drained I love my music lol
Yeah we saw this comment posted already, get a new one
Lmao
Dead ☠☠☠

“We don’t have to hate each other” DC: oh I think you do
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Both these dudes are awesome!
Since he isn't jewish and is a big former two division champion he can get away with instigating stuff lol
He wants them to hate each other so he can compare it to himself v. Bones for the 19299329919th time.
DC is starting 💩 😂 😂
5:36 DC's face dropping when they start getting along 😂
Loooool legit! Look at his face at 4:33 look at the laugh
'Ah stop all that DC!' Dustin was sick of the agitating just 5 minutes in 😂
@@user-nv2wt4hi8t yea he said "step on it DC"
@@stevjohnson3681 why would he say that? that make absolutely no sense, he said "stop all that DC"

You're wrong 😂😂😂😂
Bruh 🤣
Let’s see who comes nov. 12th with the most smudged mustache
@@marvingunnels3922 brasco stole it
Chandler is a class apart. Such composure. Such elegance.
Notice the mutual respect/competitive spirit these two have at 11:17. Dustin is hydrating and subconsciously, Mike looks at him and does the same. I'm likely reading into it too much, but pretty epic timing.
Yeah fake beef to get title shot gtfoh These two shouldn't be in top 5

Yoooo 😂😂 I didn’t even notice that till I seen this comment
@@madworker1927 Who should be in their place?

Cracks me up when Dustin's going at Chandler and DC is sitting there cracking up hahaha
That's cause that's exactly what DC wanted to happen.
💯exactly man 😆 Funniest thing ever DC instigating
4:30 You think that’s a genuine reaction from dc That hilarious? You don’t even know what is real
Its annoying. DC is the wrong guy for this. He looks like an absolute fool. Dude cant keep any composure and conduct it like a professional. Ariel is a lot better at this.
dc's prob a little biased to this fellow louisiana boy over the missouri stud.
Chandler somehow finds a way to make everything motivational
He thought the movie get out was a ted talk
It’s annoying af. He’s a walking motivational quote

Yooooooo chandlers face while DC is cracking up is priceless!! 😂😂😂 actually Dustin squirming while all that is happening is priceless
all i know is neither dustin or michael are ever in a boring fight we’re in for a crazy fight

@@petermisberg732 yeah i got my degree and have work. i got a house too. you can’t relate -lncel probably living in the basement still
This finna be some Gaethje vs. Chandler type fight🔥
@@beaualIoevv Chandler is a 3 time Bellator champ and was super close to ko’ing charles and becoming a ufc champ. Dustin is a former interim champ who has beaten multiple former champions and is one of the best lightweights of all time.
DC being such an instigator was the funniest part, who would have thought DC would become the modern Ariel Helwani
That fat cheat will get ko’d by jones again
In a bad way
So... Then by that logic ... Ariel Helwani is the retro DC
@@Anninukichild Shut up and enjoy the drama
cringe af tbh. let them talk
This is unexpected from DC. From warrior to gossip girl
Right. He acting like a female
@@neleal1997 yeah you can tell they don't like it but respect him too much to say anything.

Daniel Helwani
@@rybobuno hes been around them too long lol
Super villain 😂😂😂
hahah thats why DC cried when he loses, he's built up a whole movie arc in his mind ending as him as the victor
Timestamp? 🤣
It feels like a crime that this won’t be a 5 round fight.
Imagine a ko in less than 45 seconds. 😅
It's for Chandler's safety 👍
3 rounds makes it a crazier and more exciting fight.
Good chance it won't last past 2, let alone 5.
Better for these dudes health that’s it’s not
“I’ve never lost two fights in a row” - man Dustin might have just jinxed himself here.
He didn’t
LMAOOOOO "whats up dc" outta nowhere
That was awkward . 😅
I love this rivalry because at the root, it's just straight competitiveness.
Yeah man. I love the mutual respect behind the egos too.
So true
It was a therapy session
two boys in the school playground not scared of each other
Porier is washed. He's just here to have a break from the woife
DC LAUGHING IN THE MIDDLE 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Having time of his life
Chandler is such a stud he carry’s his self very well and seems to be a genuine guy . Hats off to Dustin also a very likable guy. I’m excited for this one!
At first I was very critical of Chandler, but I have to recognize that he broughr some fun and fresh air to the division, also very entertaining wars.
Zero drama, just 2 polite gentlemen having a conversation before trying to kill each other.
Puglism has always been a gentleman's sport
I agree. It’s pretty impressive how great they are when they are both always so kind to everyone I’ve ever seen. Neither acts like a typical “fighter” Just two great family men getting ready to go to work to kill someone.
Spot on sir. Absolutely that, and I'm fully on board for it.
DC the instigator 🤣🤣🤣Reminds me of why fights used to break out in the play ground,love it🤣
He learned that from Helwani.
@@Staniii2360 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
“All this kumbaya” was the best part of the interview. DC trying badly to shitstir is hilarious
If you told me these fellas were brothers, I would believe it. They are two great, respected fighters.
Dustin said, "naaa stop all that DC" 😭😭😭
😂😂😂😂
These two are never In a boring fight, we are In for a treat.
Poirier’s fight with Swanson was boring.
Rlly wish it was 5 rounds
Gonna be an absolute war
@@justinjohn2007 You think a fight between these 2 would last 5 rounds 💀
okay don’t repost the top comment
5:42 DC getting wind that they don’t have to hate each other and immediately tries to ruin that 😂😂😂
“NAHHHH STOP ALL THAT DC” 😂😂😂😂😂
The fact that either if them can fit ear buds in is utterly impressive.
Nooo 😭😭
Man I’ve always held Chandler up high as a class act, but this interview really even moreso showcases his class. Dustin gave a great interview as well
"So you think he's fake a lil' bit?" 🤣😂
Dc calling people fake since jon jones 🤣
The pleasure and joy on DC face as he instigates is priceless
😂😂😂 he tried sooooo hard to get them started but failed so hard 🤣 i was dying at that last little attempt by dc to instigate right befor ehe ended it 😂
Let's go Chandler ! Hope he can utilize his wrestling because Poirier has nasty defensive hooks and Chandler throws bombs, also he has a underated ground game like Poirier. I hope Chandlers athleticism plays a role in this fight.
DC is comedy-gold the way he's laughing. xD
These guys actually would become fast friends and probably will after they settle this score. Terrific fight. It'll be worth buying a PPV for.
Nope rather watch a stream
@@trent_assmussen imagine paying that much when you can just find a stream and watch it with the same quality 😂
@@HeCticCaNine imagine getting mad at people for using their own money to buy the ppv. Without people like them we wouldn’t have the ufc
Makes me laugh all the yanks worrying about ppv and streams 😂😂😂 nice and free in the uk man
@@Joe-nu2sz Crazy it's like they're UFC fans but hate the idea of the UFC receiving any money. Imagine if football fans put down other football fans when they say they bought the NFL channel. Like what
Chandler says he was wrong and honestly says he has a healthy fear of Dustin. Dude is a genuine and humble guy. Poirier is as well which was why it was weird that they were beefing. They are so similar in how they carry themselves and their values. It's gonna be nice to watch two guys lock horns with no side drama.
I thought Poirier was just a bit salty at Mike giving him cold shoulder but once heard his reason like saying Mike used Dustin going to 170 as an excuse while at same time saying he'd fight Conor at 170 . but at same time Dustin would ignore everyone and go 170 to beat up Conor for another big pay day again too
@@christophergallagher3845 yeah, McStretcher is a fraud, anyone can beat him nowadays. easy payday so you cant blame dustin
I think Poirier is fake. He literally said he didn't want to cut weight, and wanted to fight at 170, so why would he be on Chandler's radar for who he wants to fight at 155? Poirier didn't have a problem with what Chandler said, until Chandler was getting more shine and saw the opportunity to get a big fight that puts him back on track to the title, after getting smoked by 2 champions. Also, what Poirier said was wayyy more disrespectful towards Chandler than Chandler was towards Poirier. Saying you'd rather sell hot sauce than fight a guy? You're basically saying he's trash, and not worth your time and energy
@@AverageSneakerHead502 idk, if poirer wins and islam wins then Dustin can realistically get another title.
@@AverageSneakerHead502I'm definetly a bigger Chandler fan than I am a Poirier fan. That said: if he is fake, it's only that he is a bigger hot head than he trys to let on. I understood the context of the comment at the time: you have to pay your dues. Otherwise I think here is where they have been the most straight with each other (despite DC trying to stoke the fire a bit.) IMO, the more the UFC can stay away from WWE-type antics, the better. Just want to see two fighters at their best, give their best.
Both Chandler and Poirier are such likeable guys that you don't really mind who wins. Will be a memorable fight regardless.
DC laughing after the hotsauce comment had me dying laughing
bruh the fact that MC can admit that some of the things he said about Dustin where wrong is refreshing. Usually fighters just double down on some of the nonsense they say before a fight.
I'm soooo happy! Hahaha You fkn dork.
I sincerely trust that Chandler is the genuine article......a good, real dude.
Dustin seems more agitated than Chandler 😂😂😂
He’s always been that way and is just like mcgregor was a year ago. All friendly and best friends till you lose then his humbleness went out the windows.
Dustin always agitated colby beats him
You’d be upset to if you’re wife was looking for attention everywhere else but home😂
@Josh David Thank you. No one is talking about it, but Dustin has let the fame from the Conor fights go to his head. He's changed. He saw Chandler had some clout and chased it after getting smoked in 2 title fights. That's all this is
I agree with this statement. 👍
I love how the airport aren't even in Chandlers ears just sitting on top of them 😂
These two don’t need hype! Anyone who knows this sport Is excited….these are true fighters who go to war! We salute you 👏👏👏👏👏
I love DC becoming an instigator in the UFC 🤣
Professional instigator 🤣
He learned from the best lol
He's always been. Even in school he says
Becoming? He has been for a long time lmao
Learned from Ariel the p4p number 1 insitgator lmao
Every fight Poirier is in is a fight of the year candidate and this one feels like it's gonna be nonstop action too
he should fight fiziev, gamrot, dariush, tsarukyan and he gets smoked on the highlight reel
Lol not it’s not, I can name 100 more fights that would be fight of the year over any single fight of his ever.
@@sleazyeezy9452 you sound like a casual or a hater
@@sleazyeezy9452 Just admit you only watch bootlegged PPVs. Poirier vs Hooker is a banger.
Facts and so are Iron Mike's fights. Not a boring fight yet in the UFC.
I love both of these guys! The respect between them is amazing even rho they had their differences
Don't be fooled by them behaving like gentlemen, this might end up being the fight of the year.
DC died when Chandler mentioned the hot sauce 😂😂😂
DC loves a fake laugh 🤦🏻♂️
@@lubo8767 ?
Yeah he had to laugh long enough to make it seem funny
DC cracking up in the middle while they're talking is everything 🤣
Fake laugh though
7:55 Dustin’s deadpan face and DC’s laugh kills me
Such an evenly matched fight and both dudes in a great place physically and mentally in their careers. Can't wait!
Real co main at 281
“But DP let me ask you a question DP. But DP let me ask you a question DP. “ - DC
He drunk again
But but but but but, but but
lmao they def had some lagging issues, made it hilarious
Bro i died when he said that
It was scripted. Read it twice.
Love Dustin but no matter how hard he tried he’ll never escape that angry side of him he’s an emotional fighter and I love it
in this case he literally has nothing to be angry at all... I'm not really buying his act this time... how can you be angry at Chandler, the dude is like super respectful and well spoken. This will be a sick fight, I like both guys, and I think Dustin's gonna win, although I'll be rooting for "The most Entertaining fighter in the Roster" AKA Michael Chandler haha
@@chelopeppers chandler gonna take it
@@chelopeppers that is the one thing people dislike about Chandler lol, he’s way too nice
@@chelopeppers Lol it's mostly just jealousy. You must have missed their whole beef in 2020. Dustin and Tony were trying to fight for a big payday, but struggled to agree to terms, probably related to money. Chandler basically undercut their negotiations offering to fight them and UFC tried to make Tony vs. Chandler then Dustin vs Chandler. Both Dustin and Tony declined that fight since: 1. Chandler was going to get paid much more than them even though they were both vets of the company 2. They really wanted to fight each other for a big payday. Poirier also called Chandler a ho on twitter around this time. Worked out for Poirier in the end since he went on to beat Conor twice. Tony not so much.
@@AA-ig9re nowthis is a good detailed explanation. and it makes perfect sense now
Ide love to see Dustin have one more run at the title shot - or even multiple - before he bows out
I can see him getting another title shot but i don’t think he’ll win it ever again
The way DC laughs was hilarious 😂
DC cracking up in between these two after the hot sauce comment was pure gold.
DC laughing at the hot sauce joke was hilarious
Dude could barely hold it together 🤣
Fr I died of laughter
Loved this interview
hilarious how hard DC tries to create animosity between them 😂😂
Man, Michael seems like a really nice guy. Impressive considering he’d kill me in 2.4 seconds flat.
Both great guys.
Lol scrub I’d definitely last at least 2.6 seconds
Met em back in June at a restaurant in Nashville. Dudes cool af superr humble.
and what do you expect from him? You think everyone who’s stronger than you is aggressive 24/7?
@@Yo-tv6lp I’d run so fast I’d last exactly 3 seconds and outlast both you bums
It's surprising Poirier can still make 155 after all these years
He used to be like 135 or 145. So 155 is big for him. But yeah he should be 170 now.
@@bobsmith962 yeah, he filled out. He made Holloway look tiny and the power was clearly one-sided
You should be suprised about chandler, guys built like a tank 😂😂
Not really.
And they’ll still tell you that Mcgregor is an undersized bantamweight fighting middleweights.
DC “ Wait a minute, this isn’t Kumbaya “ 😂
This is one of the funniest ones ever, "DC playing DR Phil" 😂
This is the most respectful beef I’ve ever seen 😂
Was at UFC 268 for Chandler and Gaethje, going to be at 281 for this fight now, all I know is us ufc fans win, pure violence!
i dont consider it violence at all
Back to back MSG cards Chandler's been on both, Zhang too
TheBorz A cage is bad to watch fights. I’ve been to many amateur fights but the ufc for watching a live fight couldn’t be worse. A ring you can see everything from anywhere. It’s still a fun event to go to for just the experience. But if you’ve ever gone to a live sporting event. Aesthetically nothing will be worse Just look around everyone is watching the big screen
@@oldironsides4107 I mean I've never been to a live event so take my opinion with a grain of salt but watching videos recorded from outside the octagon just feel so primal. Search for some of those videos I guess but like the guy said above me you're probably gonna be mostly watching the screens
@TheBorz meant to reply to you not the other guy lol
Can’t wait for this!! Never seen two guys so evenly matched in forever…☝️🤓🎈
Dc's that one guy who in school who starts all the fight by pushing them in to each other "Go on hit him" 🤣
DC: YOU GONNA LET HIM TALK TO YOU LIKE THAT!
Aha he touched you what ya going to do ahaha
“Personally I wouldn’t have that”
I love how the two fighters are clearly angry and DC is just hysterical
@Sir Smesh A Lot evil grins😏
Omg Dustin's little face... he's so intense it's cute.
