“The fact remains that he has never defeated a winner in the UFC” – Dustin Poirier responds to Michael Chandler claiming he’s the most entertaining fighter in UFC

Dustin Poirier does not buy what Michael Chandler sells about he being the best and most entertaining fighter in the UFC.

Earlier this month, Chandler turned on one of the Knockout of the Year runners while sleeping Tony Ferguson with a front kick in UFC 274. After the fight, Chandler expressed his interest in battles with Conor McGregor, Charles Oliveira, or Nate. Diaz. But when hopes were raised against Poirier, Chandler was indifferent, saying Poirier “ignored him” when he came to the UFC and that he did not believe Poirier was pulling. It was a great song change for Chandler who was still looking forward to the fight with Poirier back in January. And according to Poirier, that’s because it all sends.

“Like when he held the microphone after the win, if you really believe these guys, the things they say are true, you’re crazy,” Poirier told MMA Hour. “Do you think the boy forgot me? Road to the topic – Charles is still a champion, I’m No. 1.

“Absolutely. He’s in – he’s never been beaten by a UFC winner!” Said Poirier. “The fact remains that , he has never defeated a winner in the UFC. What are Dan Hooker’s last five fights and Tony Ferguson’s last five fights, the two boys hitting in the UFC? What are their records in their last battles? And I’m not talking trash, I’m talking facts. No matter what, I will fight him again. I don’t care, you just set something for me. ”

The nature of the matter seems to be an ongoing problem for Chandler, who has been very critical of Poirier after Oliveira’s defeat, urging Poirier to stop. (He later apologized for his comments.) With Nate Diaz still at odds with the UFC, Conor McGregor, and Oliveira vying for the lightweight title he was stripped of, Chandler may not have any better options if he is lucky. he is really determined to get back to the title fight.
