Chandler is awesome! He can lose a fight but he always gains respect because he fight his heart out!
Fraud.
@@jaseallenson316 explain brother?
Yeah how he fishhooked Dustin and landed a bunch of illegal shots to the back of his head… only words I can think of are awesome/respect
@@joshuawilliams2303 he said it was by accident
@@joshuawilliams2303 you do know it is a fight….. where your swinging to knock the other guys head off and sometimes it happens
Damn Michael Chandler heals so fast.. it's like he's got Wolverine's superpower!
Crazy
It’s the ice mask 😂
He’s got the money to take good care of himself after fights.
That’s the only power he got

This should have way more views. How Michael Chandler isn't a household name yet is criminal!!! I've been watching every Chandler fight since 2017! This man is a Fuckin LEGEND
Chandler would rather lose trying to win than playing the game and losing HUGE RESPECT for putting it all on the line one way again! He will be remembered for moments just likehe wants, Man’s all animal!!!
This is a way to say, “he is not close to being capable of following a game plan..and he’s dirty as fuck”

Michael Chandler has the right perspective in the whole thing - very inspiring dude

Chandler is a beast. Him vs Conor would be chaos! Hope to see that international fight week
Man his view on life is so refreshing, he is such an interesting fighter. I would love to hear him talk more about his confidence evolution though
Chandler is just like Venom, a kind hearted human who can turn into an absolute savage
He also likes to destroy peoples careers w/ 10 blatant back head shots, hope he gets flatlined in front of his children
Dustin has been my favorite fighter for 10 years, which is why i wasn’t super happy he was fighting Michael. So much respect for jumping on the pod win or lose, and leaving it on the line for us all to see the emotions. I’ve fought before and I know how much goes into it, especially the moment the cage closes. Nothing but respect and I’ll continue to root for you until you deservingly decide to leave the gloves in the center.
God I love BWTB drop Tuesdays!! Need the boys after the monday I had!
Mikes nose exploded and he was able to wrestle like he did is next lvl. And the truest shit is all of mikes losses in the ufc he was clean punch away from winning by KO. always watch the man fight he’s a legend man
This dudes mindset is next level, so fun to watch and listen to as well. True competitor and alsways keeps a positive outlook on everything
Chandler staying composed and listening to the boys try to give advice/understand the fight is pretty cool. He’s all class. Hard to not root for the guy even though i’m a huge Dustin fan. Much love and respect ✊
My thought exactly. When the diamond is fighting nothing else matters. But this dude is a warrior. All class. But i didnt like the extra shit he was doin in the fight. The fish hooking and them blows to back of head, then basically denied it all. He knows wtf he did. But other then that im a fan
@@dustinbrounce357 agreed. He could’ve shot the snot rocket by turning his head. Ultimately he was probably using anything to gain an advantage
Chandler is a fraud.
Chandler is the human example of Combat. Love every time he competes.
I canceled a semi-important meeting to listen to this premiere live. Let's Go Boys!! (The recent Willy episode with Gillis was epic too)
Very humble interviewer’s
Always so insightful when the boy Chandler comes on the bus love it!!
Another banger of a episode boys!
Always here for the Boys and the VIBES
Taylor lewan, I know this is off topic but I’ve always been a big fan of yours! You took my phone and took a picture of me and signed my official NFL Titans football!
Them saucy boys garlic parmesan wings are hitters! Great mention Will 👏🏽
Chandler is a dawg! He put on a show & I think it’s awesome that he came on the pod days after to give insight
Whenever Chandler comes on, I TUNE IN!🙉👊
Im shocked! Nobody gave a shoutouts to the first inaugural bussin bowl ???? I thought for sure that would get 1 shout out
Every Sunday for years my boys and I ate a mr spots IN ann Arbor. Glad you guys had a good time in Michigan. Hopefully the dispos took care of you too 💨💙💛 GO BLUE!!
"God bless, see you at the top!"
I love Michael so much, I was trembling from excitement when I watched the fight. It's bummer that he didn't get the win, but next time!

@@unclechaelsneckvein yea ain't happenin clown 😂🤡
Dustin said he did the same thing with the blood trying to get some in his opponent’s eyes. He also said you have crazy strength when you lifted him up over your head from the position he was in at the time. Connor next for another fight of the yr candidate.
Will's hoodie is fire! As an old timer Oilers fan, I'm lovin' it. Under the radar, Chilis boneless buffalo wings with extra sauce is my trashy go-to on that flavor profile. Just a great amount of tang.
Ate chili’s for the first time In 32yrs this past weekend and got the boneless Buffalo 😂
@@timbodragon9379 It wasn't that long for me, only about 10 years last month but their sampler platter was a guilty pleasure back in the day! I wouldn't even order a normal meal, just that. 🤣
Where are y’all going to be for the Tennessee South Carolina game? GO VOLS
I listen to probably 15 different podcasts on KZhead and fir whatever reason KZhead plays 5x many ads on theirs
Vibes and the boys.
Can you give your best assessment on what you think is going on with the Raiders?
HUGE poirier fan but i enjoy watching chandler fight, he’s very exciting. Also a texans fan but i’m all for the boys 😤
I’m new to this channel and a pretty hardcore ufc fan. I understand being a casual mma fan but if you have the gift of having chandler on again please prepare better more precise questions for him. Not that I’m saying he is the greatest mma fighter of all time but he doesn’t need to be patronized by people who have never rolled asking him why he gasses so much I mean for the love of god he was a legend in bellator. I’m not going to knock you guys you seem great at football casting but maybe watch morning kombat , one of the other reptutable podcasts, or more ufc to get a better grasp at what exact questions to ask. Best of luck in the future.
Huge respect to Michael for coming on the bus following that crazy fight. Stand up dude and I love watching him fight!!
Guys like Mike make me proud to say I’m from Missouri aye aye
Always liked Chandlers fights, but now I believe he's my favorite fighter. Just a good fucking dude.
Good to know your favorite fighter is a fish hookin cheater/ phoney asf😆
And Still... Favorite Fighter in the Game! Win, Lose, or Draw.
When they brought the Bojangles out chandler starts frantically texting his wife telling her they’re gonna make him eat breaded chicken. “ honey, do we have dates?”
THE BOYS!
Can we get some Mike chandler Bussin merch????
Love the episode and Michael is the man, but I hate when ppl who lose say "but I won at life" 😂😂😂
Chandler is a must watch when he fights.
THE BOYS!!!!!!!!
Chandler's mindset is great man
When are the boys dropping some Chiefs merch??
We needed him, and, pinky.😂
We need that Bojangles up here in Ohio. We just have Popeyes, Churchs, KFC and Canes.
Bruh, why we skipping right past the boys?! I thought this was a Titan leaning podcast.
It hasn’t been since Taylor’s passing.
I don’t like Poirier but he’s right about one thing. Mike needs to work on throwing straighter punches. Lot of power in those hooks and overhands, but a bit more precision I think he finishes DP
I really hope he takes your advice his explosive style may be entertaining but his last fight was winnable had he saved his stamina more his defense was good
Highest vibes
Hov’s list was on point.
Chandler vs Mcgregor. Lets do it, boys!
yall should have robbie fox breakdown this fight and others with chandler
Best guest
Chandler was definitely up both rounds the 2nd one 10-8 , fight of the yr for sure! Keep fighting your fight Iron Mike.
Woah Jared Allen’s coming soon?
No fishhook questions?
Vibes
Chandler won me over since coming to the UFC
Let's go boys
I think Chandler and Conor make the most sense. Both are slowly leaving there prime and both need a win. I don’t see any other fight making sense for either
True Class Act,, This Man is a great role model.
The thing is, is that these top guys can feel your presence and pressure, and overcome their own self doubt and pull through to victory. You’re mindset fighting these Bellator guys and Dan hooker 145lbs, won’t overcome the best in the world in the ufc. You did absolutely everything you could to break porier, started better, then he didn’t break and came back that same round. You out wrestled him, beat him and wore him for an entire 2nd round. Didn’t break him. And he came back through all adversity and finished you. You need to change something obviously. Orr just you aren’t THAT guy
What are you on about? So he's not a top 3 guy at 35 or whatever he is lmao who cares. If Dustin doesn't grab his foot when he was tryna put his hooks in then he probably wins that fight. And Hooker was not at 145 when Chandler fought him. Hooker had just gone to war with Dustin and almost finished him in the 2nd round at 155. Hooker only dropped to 145 after the Islam fight, and then went back to 155 when Arnold Allen sparked him.
Chandler is a LEGEND 🐐
With the glasses Chandler looks like Ron Rivera.
Would love to see chandler and Justin again
Shout out to Zipps best wings in AZ
Class
Glad Taylor doesn't haven't to pay Will $300
Damn he is again quick 😢
Everybody calling him dirty can go fly a kite
I feel like Chandler would benefit from a sports psychiatrist, because if you notice he always kind of loses the same way, he comes in guns blazing almost wins than gasses out and has momentary loss of focus and loses the fight. I think it's a mental thing..
You made many good points. I think Chandler's biggest problem isn't that he doesn't follow a gameplan because it's actually his terrible defensive abilities and bad instincts, which backfires on his strong start, which again is due to him being aggressive because aggression also makes up for experience and lack of knowledge of the unknown, which is unpredictable unless you dictate the fight overall, mostly on the ground in MMA or by taking away hope... Besides, his wrestling is good but not the best. Got great explosive takedowns but not enough effective offensive wrestling and submissions along with just average ground control.. He is too consistent at a high pace during a performance instead of having more discipline to make adjustments and placing his momentum and rhythm in a smarter manner, which his coaches should have explained him. Also, it has to be controlled aggression instead of being too reckless, but that's why he is extremely exciting and fun to watch. Chandler might show the media and the fans that he is a friendly family man, but judging by the way he fights; it's obvious that he has a temperament that is attached to his emotional side and aggressive way of projecting a message. They all reveal themselves inside the octagon or the ring. But gotta appreciate all the exciting fights throughout the years.
I don’t think it’s mental at all. He’s had plenty of high level fights & won a lot of those fights I think it’s more of going off script. Getting a lil punch happy or maybe sees something he can attack but it doesn’t go as planned type of thing. He’s a badass fighter I’m a fan forsure I just think he gets jumpy for the finish at times & when he can’t execute it’s kills him & drains him.
Chandler is a beast
Vibes🎉
JP still needs a RAISE
if ground knees are allowed chandler would be undefeated in the UFC
Mr. Spots is so good. Go Bucks!
58:06 No way this man literally said $55 for a PPV. Those things are the only thing outpacing inflation. I need answers.
Lol, that's not much they have been 50$ for years now, and the boxing ppvs sometimes are 65-80$
@@stillsmokntrees That’s also false. UFC PPV’s are 75 bucks with 5 bucks tax.
@Jordan M. perhaps for you, I wouldn't know the prices of non subscribers to the UFC and ESPN, + it's 50$ for me as an annual subscriber
Chandler always fights like he is gonna be here for a short time and not a long time...
Used to be a believer but that dirty shite he pulled in the fight makes me low key hate the guy
In his first fight in the UFC vs Hooker, I bet he'd win by KO, won a decent amount on my parlay, and I have stuck with him ever since
Mike is such s good dude.
my guy looks like Tony F
I think the part when chandler clears his nose makes sense ause like imagine you're nose is crushed and can't breath and is already gassed out so imagine he was just wanting to breath lol so I don't see him trying to mess eith Dustin that way and even the headbutt that one just looks like bad timing hahah this dude is a legit warrior and badass usually pretty Nobel and will admit his mistakes and such so I can sorta believe him !
nah man. hes dirt bag
It was def deliberate lol
wait is this really Michael Chandler *after* that Poirier WAR??? or was this shot before?? confusing, dude barely looks like he's got a scratch on him ffs
Man if he fights Connor that would be insane
The green coils have been bile from the liver maybe a liver punch caused your liver to excrete bile?
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cajun chicken biscuit with egg and cheese from @Bojangles no need for sauce
Ann Arbor is mids. Gunna have to go check it out again in two years
Nothing but respect for Michael Chandler he gave it his all in there and like Dustin Poirier said if he would have kept his shot straight instead of looping them he might have finished him. Hindsight is always 20/20
Oh shit I just had KFC🤦🏽♂️
yeeee boyz
JEFFERSON IS HIMMMM
The peoples champion
Fish hooks and bleeding into Poirier... Real nice. Not buying it.
Saying he pissed blood after his fight jus gave me the grossest feeling wow fighters are insane. They deserve so much more $$
He got paid 350k from the ufc alone lol how much you want them to pay him for 10 weeks of work.
@@cleancountershot3941ehhh it’s not really 10 weeks worth of work they’ve been training for this most their lives..
@@Bigsosa214 lol come on now I respect the hell out of these guys esp chandler but let’s be honest they get paid quite a bit for something they absolutely love doing and most these guys after training and fighting only work about 20 weeks a year. Their jobs are hard but not as hard as waking up every single day for a 9-5 going to a job you hate making 15 bucks and hour like most of us
@@cleancountershot3941 your vastly under estimating what these dudes go through to get to this spot.. how long they had to be broke and get their ass beat on a Dailey basis in a gym just to get better.. imagine working that 9-5 job for bullshit money while still training.. I doubt 90% of those 9-5ers could even do the weight cut they do
@@Bigsosa214 chandler himself said he feels his pay is adequate. Said he had no problems with what they were paying him.
