Michael Chandler Says He Will "Decapitate" Conor McGregor + Doing Things Outside Of The UFC World

Recorded: January 9th 2023 | In this weeks episode, the boys are in Orlando to shoot a Sandbagger with the Spittin Chiclets guys. It is a shorter intro as the boys recap the NFL Divisional round from this past weekend. They spend the majority of the time talking about the Chiefs-Bills game as Will thinks the game was rigged in favor of the Chiefs. They also preview the Conference Championship games where it'll be the Lions vs. 49ers and the Chiefs vs. Ravens. The boys make a case for each time as to how they can make it to the Super Bowl.
Following the intro, we sit down with one of the OG boys, Michael Chandler. Some massive news has come out of the UFC as Conor McGregor will be finally returning to the Octagon and his opponent will be, the boy Michael Chandler. He gets into the whirlwind of the last couple months for him dealing with Conor, the UFC and trying to nail down a date for this fight to happen. The guys get into the entire USADA drug testing process and why that was such a problem before along with what weight class they believe the fight will be at. Chandler wants it to be at 185 because he says it gives him is an advantage since he is more naturally at that weight. Mike gives his predictions on how he believes this fight will go, how many rounds, his game plan and they way he is going to break McGregor down. You can't help but feel a little juiced up after hearing what he has to say.
They boys also get into some of the things that Chandler does outside of fighting. Mike hasn't fought in over a year but that doesn't mean he hasn't stayed busy. He just became a partner in Hiatus Tequila and he gets into the process behind the tequila business. He has some choice words about some other fighters alcohol that is out there, hint: it's an Irish whiskey. Chandler gets into how his entire life does not surround fighting, he isn't one of those guys who relies on a paycheck from the UFC as he is involved in more than just fighting. The boys finish the pod off answering another one of Mitch's terrible twisted questions and then get into the movie talk. We all know these three guys get along very well so it just feels like they are hanging out chopping it up. Enjoy fellas!

[@JoshHannigan1995]

We should be able to see what the boys see when they watch something on the tv

[@CJ-vi3jd]

Yes 👍

[@kimhickey416]

Boys are definitely growing as interviewers. So happy to watch them grow and their success, tier 1. LFG!!

[@jasonmitchell3633]

Love watching the boys chop it up with Chandler. Also love Will rocking the BWTB gear. Love the Dad hat and sweater.

[@joshm4782]

Haven’t listened in a while for no reason other than being busy. Gyattdam that intro is so good.

[@aaronwebb3343]

Got to meet and laugh with MC at a golf tourney last fall. We chatted about BWTB. Great dude, lots of fun and a bad boy in the cage. Wishing all great success in all things.

[@evanwaleck87]

9:54 "pacheco runs like a kid who just got new shoes" best description ive heard from someone .. Nate Burleson maybe? Not sure but it was spot on 👌

[@HappyHeartTreasures_Steve]

I finished watching the Henry pod and would love to ask, when ya'll are talking about stuff that youre looking at on the screen, why don't you pop up pictures on the video so the people watching can follow along? Best example is when talking about Henry's outfits - was really hoping to look up at the TV and see what you're talking and laughing about. I listen while I'm working but I have it on KZbin to see visuals some times. It wouldn't be that tough to pop up a photo when needed. Other than that love the pod, been listening for long time.

[@michaelbsquire]

Great stuff dawgs

[@codydailey6276]

Mike Chandler is a fawkin DAWG! It was super cool of him to chop it up in chat while watching the natty! People’s champ💜

[@bradbowen4623]

One of my personal best podcasts that I've watched. and I watch listen to a lot of podcasts. I'm "bussin with the boys" every Tuesday morning, Slips & Picks, etc.. but Bussin is my favorite podcast, Iron Mike is my favorite fighter, and NF is hands down my favorite artist. That said, I hope Mike knocks the damn breaks off of McGregor...and becomes the mayor of Ireland. Also, a NF walk out would blow my mind. See you at the top!! BIG HUGS, tiny kisses..

[@kevinblue1976]

Boys got a little toasty 😂

[@maximepeters7736]

Boys def on them VITAMINS 😂

[@baileyhawley918]

The Gametime ad read was electric. Way to keep it together through the adversity Willy

[@jkh5]

And just a few days ago Dana White said McGregor doesn’t have a fight booked. He said there is no date or opponent for Conor yet

[@jaseallenson316]

Obviously he knows chandler doesnt move the needle for conor. Dana and Conor know his next fight has to be the diaz trilogy. I just hope chandler gets the hint, does all ufc fans a favor and steps the fuck aside.

[@mutsa8]

"0 and then a gunshot" absolutely killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@MrMCLax2]

Chandler is a beast. Great epi…

[@BallerLifestyle24]

Taylor that Irish accent was gold 😂 my boy sounds like he belongs on the lucky charms box

[@setantasudway3371]

As an Irish fella I can confirm McGregor isn’t as liked by as many used to be

[@nicksjourney9871]

@ 19:18 pod starts

[@gamztrackk]

Precision Beats Power, Timing Beats Speed

[@F1ZCHE]

When Dana says they dont allow special walkouts it makes me wonder if I am the only one that remembers when Izzy walked out for Whittaker in their first fight. He had a entire team of dancers with him.

[@AirRaid1196]

9:21 They're flags, Taylor. They're flags. Stop calling them "orange things" lmao

[@KareemDonnerback]

Anyone else wanting to see what the boys on the bus are looking at? Example: photos of mcgregor as they are talking about it. Last week when they were watching King Henry’s runs. I think it would put a nice touch on the pod to enjoy those highlights and match it with the reaction. Just a thought.

[@Sonofawildanimal4241]

5:55 I believe Taylor Lewan is making a reference to the Pat McAfee Show

[@michaelmagochy3060]

Would be nice to see what y’all are looking at on the tv in the video. Not gonna point any fingers…. I blame Mitch.

[@tjdover4209]

Will grasping at straws with that PI😂😂

[@ethanburton903]

I’m a bills fan and I completely agree😂😂 as much as I hate KC they just know how to win

[@ericicopini4955]

The Boys!!!

[@Rich_LMN]

NF doing the walkout for MC would be ⚡ELECTRIC⚡ also, let's get NF on the bus this year, boys!

[@JCStraulin]

Tuesday = best day

[@KateHarley-ej3uw]

Totally agree with Taylor that the Kingsmen are phenomenal movies ❤

[@miilky_eh]

Lot of free shoutouts from Mike 👀

[@titantown615]

Can ANYBODY tell me who does the intro song?? Is it Ernest??

[@ghart22]

Pat mcafee show made up the whole Eminem into kid rock for Detroit Taylor just fyi lol

[@dustinfickel5236]

💯

[@stefanomurro]

Does Mitch know about Chat GPT? Would help him out for those twisted questions😁

[@jacobholliday8919]

Let’s go boys!!!! You should get dalton kincaid on the pod. Buddy’s a savage. Go bills.. :(

[@ajmiles505]

Week 2 of asking for Mitch & jack to add a Picture in Picture on the stream so we can see what the boys are watching on the tv. Love y’all boys

[@tjdover4209]

Might be some copyright issues on that one depending on what they’re watching🤷🏻‍♂️

[@antonionava5379]

Pat mcafee and tone dogs said that

[@OG_Log91]

anybody else laughing at the fact that Taylor couldn't come up with the word "flags" on top of the field goal posts??

[@Dunc417]

It was mcafee that said the kid rock thing taylor. You’re welcome.

[@PatTheBat16]

RIP Mitch. Twisted question took him from this world. “Use your brain just a little bit” don’t act defeated Mitch! Accept the role and handle business

[@AnthonyRodriguez-mi7oq]

Lowkey feel bad for the boy Mitch, just gets bodied everyday😂

[@mauriciohernandez1941]

It's snoop Dogg in starsky & Hutch

[@robertlouk3519]

We not going to talk about that can of zynchinos on the table 😂😂

[@calebingram44]

For The Boys 🐺

[@TotalNonStopTallent]

It’s also not June 29th. Dana said nothing is confirmed

[@thewin4life]

Will -reading Gametime app proceeds to tell story about buying tickets to Preds game. Then says “What are some things you like about the Gametime experience” am not supposed to read that! I did that last time Golden retriever! Ron Burgendy

[@JayyBanks]

Will knows how to get engagement from Chiefs fans 😂 I hate that we keep falling for it.

[@user-px3xj1co6d]

Chandler butched that quote ...it was " I thought you were going to UW and be a husky like me... rrrrr" - 10 Things I Hate About You

[@rustincole_w1339]

Meech is Fired

[@ScubaSteve8922]

Also where does the bus stand on Lebron v Jordan debate

[@awebb1487]

Dang, those three can't handle very much booze. Ruins every hypothesis the Marine Corps has 😂

[@michaelmcmahan6648]

Will drinking out a Stanley. 😂🤦🏻‍♂️

[@betterwithagepodcast]

I am so early i have no idea what’s going on

[@goofyf00ted]

no fight was announced lol mcgregor just said he was fighting

[@caidenkerr4860]

Taylor my guy what’s w the 3 milly pillys hop on the 6 millys or 15

[@KevinCruz-jl2os]

What are the boys doing in Orlando?

[@legacynation1421]

A football can fade right just like a golf ball. i.e. every Matt Prater kick.

[@2wdharris]

Twisted Question: What is the largest animal that you could take in a fight with your bare hands? No weapons, technology, etc. Feel like Taylor would say nothing bigger than a house cat, but Will would be fully convinced he can take on a silverback gorilla lol

[@tr5923]

Has the ufc officially announced the fight? I don’t think they have which is not a good sign for Mike…

[@curtista1]

Elevator story sounds like a brendan shaub fake story lmao

[@JM-ys1tb]

Might have been Mitch’s worst question

[@CjThePoetKing]

I used to be a Conor McGregor fan and Respect what he did in the past for Mixed martial arts BUT Chandler gunna spark McGregor! 👊🤴 Chandler lives and trains very clean and discipline. He's a beast

[@krishnamagar5627]

He will be down in one

[@ScubaSteve8922]

This is old but ask the boys if they are Team Cap or Team Iron Man.

[@benparrish672]

I am Smokey Ben The NashVillain

[@justinsmith293]

Even if he makes that field goal, they ain’t winning that game

[@rickjames420]

Even if Bass makes the FG, too much time for Mahomes.

[@Dr.CBandz]

Twisted Question Idea: Would you rather get in the Octagon with Prime Jon Jones for 1 minute or an Open Gorilla Enclosure for 10 minutes. Both are trying to Kill you, you just have the ability in the gorilla enclosure to hide or run. In the octagon with Jon Jones you are just hoping you can defend yourself for 60 seconds.

[@stampedetime]

Will looks stoned

[@DennisFeinsteinCEO]

The UFC should just subcontract the drug testing procedure to local probation offices haha, they sound similar...

[@shugranspice]

Yeah, Goodelle turned on the fans and blew the ball wide right. Lmao Will’s inability to handle it when the Chiefs win is hilarious.

[@tannerlind1563]

Will high af

[@Ryanw2916]

Chandler and McGregor not fighting june 29th. Per Dana, do your research boys! 👍🏻

[@jwill88]

Will @ 1:32:40 💀

[@CarlosBoozeCruise]

Algo hack boyz

[@tracksuitJohn]

Just posting this here to remind myself I predicted Taylor's closet gay coming out arc. See you guys in a few years.

[@kylemarshall647]

Well said. It’s like a Cody ford who is irrelevant in the nfl but thinks he’s rich and better than everyone and treats Tianna, his spouse, like complete shit

Connor is washed and is giving chandler an advantage fighting heavier. Chandler will win bet the house on it

[@user-se3ti4rv5j]

michael wants the payday

[@ryabryab4428]

It’s recorded I don’t get why you do release it immediately, unless more editing is needed

[@brifer95]

It needs more editing

[@michaeltoledo47]

Why does it affect you regardless?

[@bencrichton1646]

Dumbest comment of the week goes to you good sir!

[@TheJonjur]

I think all of us get it immediately but yours is delayed because you have a small wiener

[@bigpappachungus5273]

I don’t even get why you’re mad

[@cleancountershot3941]

I love Mike but he’s wasting away the last final years that he has. They’ve already dragged this out a year. How much longer is he prepared to wait. Is the extra couple million dollars really worth it

[@Jaja17z]

Why they ain’t cool with Schaub anymore?

[@robmiller2221]

Will is such a hater when it comes to KC
