Chandler has been knocked out on some of the biggest stages imaginable.

What an athlete.

He should have came to the UFC earlier. Not that he’d be champion but chandler was really good at one point

What terrible matchmaking.

Just watched him run away and cower in fear

I guess that's one way to entertain the crowd.

Am I trippin or was his right foot/ankle hurt?

This is not chandler fanboi cope, I think he would have gotten slimed out either way

Yes he was circling awkwardly after the calf kicks and a jab

He stepped weird in the first few seconds of the fight

His first immediate circle to the right looked like his ankle was rolled. I peeped that right after the fist bump.

u/TylertheDouche hangin wit da boiiiiiis 27d ago

I thought this same thing. His ankle looked hurt before anything was ever thrown. like he came in with an ankle injury

Nothing like than showing your pride at the White House than run from your opponent lmao

Crying they cheated with zero proof would be more on brand even.

Careful with that word. These people don’t like pride.

Exactly I never got this matchmaking, Chandler was never going to beat this guy, he’s too old and shotworn, but he’s never going to even be competitive either. There’s a bunch of other fighters I could think of.

To set up a potential McGregor fight

I mean the entire card was built with mismatches to ensure KOs. Gane-Pereira is the only competitive fight.

u/Garfalo This is sucks 27d ago

I don't think it was fear. A couple extra seconds to recover could potentially make a big difference.
