Chandler really wasted 2 years of his prime over an imaginary money fight.

[@ryu-ken]

Talk about fumbling the bag. Yikes.

[@WernerRachtman]

He will wait for the rest of his life for Conor.

[@xIIxGOBLINxIIx]

Michael Chandler really is like the ex that never stops talking about you.

[@stoneroses8818]

Maybe because he realize he got not chance with the top 3. Might as well chase the UFC pinata

[@rcchristian2]

He's the ex that shows up outside your window in a bush.

[@rcchristian2]

@@stoneroses8818 Yeah if you think about it, not a stupid move... He gets the big payday and if he can win, he literally opens up the door for 1 fight to title shot again or even a title shot. He's at the tail end of his career, he's setting up businesses and spending time with family while waiting... Pretty smart move if you ask me. If he wanted a long lasting legacy in the UFC... well this isn't the way, but he's living his best life.

[@jonathanmoore7582]

From what he has said she always wanted to adopt kids in need and the first one just happened to be black and then they picked the second so he would have a brother that looked similar.

[@carocho9933]

Can you imagine if Connor just decide to ignore this guy and not fight him? 😂😅😂

[@user-tt3io5xq6y]

Chandler is sitting out longer than he's been active in the ufc. And dana is pushing the fight date further and further. I believe Connor has 1 fight left on his contract, and the ufc doesn't want him signing to another organization, so Chandler is paying the price.

[@anomalyLG]

Does anyone honestly think this guy has a chance? This dude got into 2 wars with Eddie Alvarez, has a horrendous UFC record (getting KOed by a submission artist and submitted by a striker), and takes more damage in one round than Conor has in his entire career. Even in fights he wins. He beat Tony's corpse and Dan Hooker. That's it. Basic double leg brawler style. Conor by clowning.

Wtf are u talking about fighting Diaz at the Sphere? Lmaoo

next month, he will be 38. Not sure if he played it right. If June doesn't happen, i'll lose interest. It doesn't matter if i don't understand the intricacies of putting together a fight. Father time will win. He said that he's not just a guy who fights in a cage. Well, right now, that's the only thing fans care about. When you're done fighting, then talk about your projects.

Here's chandlers road map to the belt.... Gamrot, Dariush, Arman, a win over 2 of these guys should put him in the right place for a title fight. Hopefully islam or charles is still champ when chandler gets to contender spot and then chandler I see beating charles and islam. Chandler got very close against charles the first fight
