He is one of the most exciting fighters ever. Whether he wins or loses it's 🔥.

9:37 Chandler's ground game is legit

[@tonyfergusonisthetypeofguy142]

He did that with charles aswell. Never been subbed

[@rahamanawelenje9955]

No its not

@@tonyfergusonisthetypeofguy142who would've thought the man to submit him would be Dustin Poirier?

@bendover7841 im not accepting that lmao Dustin shouldnt be the one to sub him

[@893trent]

Nice gotta see more of chandler before UFC 268

[@bluezdr]

It's going to be so crazy! 268 is one of the best cards put together in a while, so many big names and fights, I'm excited

chandler kncoked down primus with the same exact combo he knocked down/KOd Hooker with then in the next round when primus knocked him down chandler did the same exact thing he did in the oliveria fight

[@therealkat1342]

Talk about Dè Ja Vu!

[@Kwalk0]

I hope Chandler has an answer for Gaethje’s low kicks. His stance is so wide.

[@profightsinfo]

Finally someone other then myself who noticed how susceptible Chandler is to those! It’s a great fight but like you I think those could be a deciding factor. Even in his first two UFC fights he got damaged by single leg kicks (go back and watch his face after Hooker lands his first and Oliveira swept him to the ground with one of his).

[@Theodore_VII]

Movement, in and out, Chandler was able to avoid Primus’ leg kicks by hopping in and out

[@A55Hol3_Actual]

He seemed to have stuffed Primus' on their last outing together quite well. 🤞🏻

[@Kwalk0]

@@Theodore_VII It’s going to be much harder for Chandler to evade Gaethje’s leg kicks with pure footwork. He has much better timing than Primus.

[@kalashnikov47ful]

@@profightsinfo ugh heaps of people know chandler is susceptible to leg kicks hahah it’s nothing new at all there’s videos breaking down his style that have hundreds of thousand of views that you would’ve watched that say just that

[@johnfidalgo386]

Thank you bellator

[@roni2977]

What a great fight!!

[@The_below_average_gamer]

I like how they post this for Chandler since he's fighting in a month in the UFC and that Brent Primus fight next weekend

[@aidengerometta8962]

Bro ufc would never, big ups bellator

[@BarryHarrellYouTube]

Them boys can fight! Brent is amazing on the ground. Both are really good and should be proud of that battle! If I had to lose a title, I would rather it be a knock down drag out with a class act like Brent that some jerk. I'm really impressed with both and I've trained fighters for years in my old life. These guys sure make me miss it. Thanks for the great fight.

Commentators: Brent Primus, he is a high level real deal fighter. Michael Chandler: I just beat him for his Championship Belt.

Bellator needs to TAKE POINTS!! Last herb dean fight i watched they did it the whole fight!!

[@dersumi4027]

the wrestling with these studs is hot top notch, aggressive and alpha love it!!

[@lesbianlollipop]

Bellator still putting out chandler content even after the switch, very very cool of them.

[@xxxllloorpoopypants3687]

They need views anyway they can

[@Team3xtreme]

Well they know people are going to be looking for his previous fights and there are only 2 Chandler fights UFC can promote. One being like 20 seconds long and the other he lost. What better way to direct more viewers to your organisation than to put out videos of Chandler?

[@timterrell2554]

@Eugene Kendrick What a dumb comment...

[@timterrell2554]

@Eugene Kendrick This comment was even dumber lmao is that all you can think of? Dumb comments 😂

[@timterrell2554]

@Eugene Kendrick Lmfao triggered, alright kid, I'm out.

[@bluezdr]

Kinda cool that Bellator is running Chandler promo for UFC. It's their material, and pretty sure the licensing doesn't allow ESPN or UFC to use it beyond couple seconds clips. UFC owes you guys a good back scratch. I thought Primus has a fight coming up soon, so it seems weird to show the fight against Chandler where he lost. The more I think about it, you really did a solid for UFC. I hope this fellowship will someday extend to having multi-promotion Champions like boxing does.

[@sassysteve6700]

It’s not that deep…they want views

[@josefrancisco6969]

Great fight.

[@Rowgue51]

Got a "knock down" with a headbut, and laid on him the whole fight. That's some real championship caliber stuff.

[@antoniopereira6011]

Total domination by Chandler

[@bcooley2]

I forgot how good this fight was!

[@bluex610]

Nice of Bellator to promote the UFC upcoming event

[@danielpandiangan8858]

It's very likely that Michael Chandler will beat Gaethje, He will definitely grind Gaethje and get rid of him

[@dhuss14]

This fight happened sometime in December 2018 and it's the fight from which I started following Chandler's fights, I knew who he was before of course, and it's the fight that made me believe he would be Khabib's toughest fight because he seems to have a spirit and toughness like very few in his division, whilst also having supreme explosiveness, the most power out of the UFC lightweights from what it seems, and the wrestling endurance.

[@raymondmoya4798]

Yes I totally agree with you 👍👏

[@eetfuk3571]

I believe Mike can knock Gaethje out.

[@bluezdr]

@@eetfuk3571 love the Hetfield reference... but I gotta say, that's not a fight I would put money on. Justin is a whole other type of toughness, I don't think Michael can man-handle him like he did Brent in this meeting. Justin has improved to where he's not as reckless as he used to be. Both guys are super well rounded and can throw heat, both have fought the toughest competition, both have the heart of a champion even though only one has been a champ. No bets here, I just want to see it go down!

[@eetfuk3571]

@@bluezdr right. we have different opinions though, I just hate that people thinks this will be a one sided beatdown in favor of Gaethje like we forget that Michael is also a machine. anyone can shut someone's light at any given moment of the fight, I just prefer Michael Chandler here although I'm a fan of both.

[@MYLIFEISAWESOME]

Bellator Crushing it!

[@heresthethingyouguys]

crazy pace

[@CraigPark]

4:12 the same bread and butter combo Chandler finished Dan Hooker with.

[@ryanjansen8785]

good job overcoming and at least eventually finding answers for maybe even just about everything on michael's part.. he even perhaps developed a notable bounce strut (sone single back and forth motion in succession) somewhat soon after the fight started. you couldn't rule out brent's jui-jit-sui though... even late in the bout, amidst the moments that he had.

[@dannybreeding3780]

Good Job Michael Chandler from Missouri..

[@JohnMartin-ze8cf]

What a fight.....and I think that big John and Goldie are the best announcers of all

[@gerardoflores9894]

Chandeler forgot to trow punches to the body when he had Primus on the floor .

[@rockdog2843]

It ticks me off when the crowd boos when the fight goes to the mat. If they dont like ground fighting go watch a boxing match!! takedowns are a major part of mma. Many fights get finished from the mat.

[@LesnarBuiltThePyramids]

Chandler sees much smaller here, guess he gain more after hydrating now after weigh ins

[@austinjyee]

The wrestling is excellent super aggressive and competitive

[@ufca2z]

How come bellator has UFC's ref?

[@G.C_McCrea]

"WE'VE GOT OURSELVES A FIGHT!" Indeed. 😐😳😄

[@zairisshahrin]

Legend says Chandler never got that fist bump from Jon

[@user-fd4hl3cd1n]

I hope someday they will make a confrontation between the two strongest promotions of the world UFC and Bellator, a wall-to-wall battle. But currently, the UFC is afraid of this confrontation with Bellator because it is afraid of losing its reputation.

[@chaosdromanah8620]

Also add One

[@thatguy5779]

Ngannou destroys Bader, Jiri has already beat Nemkov and probably would again, Adesanya vs eblen is interesting but Adesanya probably wins a decision, Edwards beats Yaroslav, Charles beats pitbull, Volk beats pitbull, Aljo beats Sergio.

[@YourUpperLip1]

LMAO no.

Primus really had to do a better job from his guard. Just cannot remain the way he was and not attempt to change position, attack in any major way, make serious concerted efforts to get up.

If Brent can drop chandler and almost put him out, gaethje gonna do bad things to him if he can keep it on the feet.

Chandler is vulnerable from check hooks. It was visible from Alvarez, Primus, and Oliveira fight.

مبارزه ای خوب و تکنیکی و قدرتی بود Michael Chandler دارای قدرت بدنی خوبی بود و در زمین خوب کنترل کرد و در فایت ایستاده شاید نمیتوانست پیروز شود اما Brent Primus در حالت ایستاده بهتر بود و ضربات بیشتری زد اگر خاک نمیشد و یا قدرت بدنی بیشتری میداشت میتوانست پیروز شود در کل مبارزه خوبی بود و قضاوت عادلانه بود با درود " از ایران
