Joe Rogan and Ilia Topuria discuss Michael Chandler's UFC career
Since signing with the UFC, Michael Chandler has a record of 2-5. In his most recent bout at UFC 314, 'Iron' was soundly defeated by rising prospect Paddy Pimblett.
Following the fight, Chandler's ongoing three-fight losing streak and losing record in the UFC became a topic of discussion, and Joe Rogan and Ilia Topuria weighed in on the same. Topuria said:
"For me, [Michael] Chandler, he never was an extraordinary fighter. He was like average level of fighter. Who did he beat like in the UFC? He beat Dan Hooker and Tony Ferguson, who was almost 40 years old... You don't see technique, you don't see skills. You see a great fight because as a fan it's very entertaining... But if you really think about it, you don't see skills."
Rogan added:
"Honestly, we got Michael Chandler after his prime. If you go watch Chandler vs. Eddie Alvarez in Bellator, those were f**king crazy fights."
