Chandler really is a nice, genuine person. I met him at the Nashville airport last year as we both arrived. It was a late flight and he could have told me to piss off…but he didn’t. I asked him for a photo and he kindly took one, then shook my hand, asked me my name and what I did. He introduced himself as well & held a brief conversation before parting ways. Chandler didn’t have to do any of that, especially considering he was heading home to his family. But he took the time to be gracious with a fan. Super awesome dude. So pumped for his next fight.

Chandler has been a beast for years. He's been against some of the best in the world with names like Benson, both Pitbull brothers, Oliveira, Gaethje, Ferguson, Alvarez and so on. He seems like a awesome dude with the most positive energy and spirit around. He is honest with his answers and will compliment his opponents and competition. He is a true professional and a good role model for the next generation. Keep killing it Pat and the crew!

[@MrTopherdrew]

Chandler is the man. What a great interview, never knew how much I'd like him when he was in Bellator. I don't even find him cringe like some because he walks the walk, stuff like the adoption just proves it. The world needs more Michael Chandlers

[@koylar]

It’s the way he says things , it’s all so pure and straight to you - no flourish or adding swag to it . Adesanye tries to hard when he speaks and so does Usman , conor during the poirer 3 fight was unbearable because it became so fake and forced . Chandler is as pure as they come , so glad he came to UFC

[@kevinzhu6417]

As a new fan of the sport he's one of the guys who got me into the UFC. His fight with Gaethje was the first full fight I ever watched and I've been watching UFC as much as possible since

[@MrTopherdrew]

@@koylar agreed. I will say I love watching Adesanya's reaction vids with his boys/team and I like how much CKB supports one another, but I typically won't listen to him do actual media. Usman is kinda the same way, I usually skip his portions of the embeddeds not because I particularly dislike him, but I just feel excessively neutral and don't like wasting my time when I can just do something else I enjoy I watch and cheer against Conor because I like to see the world burn occasionally, though the dolly situation was fucked and he's a terrible person. I feel similarly about Dustin as I do Chandler, so that shows my allegiance 😊 Chandler genuinely is inspiring, like I could imagine seeing one episode and thinking he's over the top or cringe, but when you see him over and over and realize it's never fake, he wins you over completely.

[@MrTopherdrew]

@@kevinzhu6417 that's awesome! Amazing fight to break you in. My first "get you hooked" fight was the war between Rory Macdonald and Robbie Lawler, which many think is the best UFC fight ever. Idk if you have fight pass (I don't I'm a pirate lol), but mmacore has most full fight replays. r/mma is usually a decent resource too I'm a huge fan of mma and BJJ in general, so welcome to the sport! It's an interesting mix of total ego, yet ultimately egoless battles 😅 I like Justin as a fighter, but as a human, Chandler is the cream of the crop, so I'm happy he has a new fan!

[@stefanyellowcurry1011]

There are actually many many Michael chandlers. It’s a very common name.

[@mikesemus9773]

By far the best signing Dana has made in recent times, Mike is one of the few fighters who truly understands this is entertainment, he puts in the work in training AND with the media. On top of that there's no b/s with the man, he's honest and doesn't put people down to try and sell tickets. Won me over for sure.
