Michael Chandler’s UFC Nightmare: Ex-Bellator Champion Destroys Him, Exposing His ‘Cheating’ Secrets and Career-Killing Weaknesses!

Michael Chandler’s UFC Career in Freefall: Ex-Bellator Champion Calls Him a ‘Cheating Punk’ as His Fatal Flaws Are Exposed in Crushing Defeat to Oliveira!

Chandler’s Ongoing Struggles

Michael Chandler’s journey in the UFC has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows, but his recent setbacks have brought harsh criticism from both fans and fellow fighters. After his decision loss to Charles Oliveira at UFC 309, Chandler’s performance has raised eyebrows, especially as it has left him open to intense criticism. What was expected to be a career-defining moment instead revealed vulnerabilities in Chandler’s skills, prompting several high-profile figures to publicly roast him.

Brent Primus Fires Back

One of Chandler’s most vocal critics is former Bellator lightweight champion Brent Primus, who has had a long-standing rivalry with the UFC star. Their feud dates back to their Bellator days, where they split victories. However, since Chandler’s move to the UFC, their tension has only grown. In a recent interview with MMA Fighting, Primus didn’t hold back, calling Chandler a “cheating little punk” and a “dirty fighter.”

Primus didn’t just focus on Chandler’s loss to Oliveira but criticized his overall performance, stating, “He looked like cr** in his last fight.” According to Primus, Chandler’s footwork was sloppy, and his right hand was thrown without precision, making it look like an awkward baseball throw. He also labeled Chandler’s post-fight callout “cringey,” further fueling his disdain for the fighter.

Chandler’s Decline: Ring Rust and Lost Skills

The criticisms continued, with veteran referee John McCarthy agreeing that Chandler’s performance lacked the sharpness expected of a top-tier fighter. McCarthy pointed out that Chandler’s extended two-year hiatus to wait for a potential fight with Conor McGregor had caused significant rust, which negatively impacted his skills. As McCarthy put it, “That’s what happens when you take two years off waiting for somebody.” The long break from competition was evident in Chandler’s awkward and uncoordinated movements during his fight with Oliveira.

Primus echoed McCarthy’s concerns, asserting that the hiatus had destroyed Chandler’s once-formidable fighting ability. He suggested that this lack of preparation led to Chandler’s disappointing performance against Oliveira, leaving him out of sync and vulnerable in the cage.

The Aftermath of UFC 309

For Michael Chandler, the path to redemption looks increasingly difficult. Despite his early success in the UFC, his recent losses and the mounting criticism from fellow fighters suggest his future in the promotion may not be as bright as once thought. With his reputation on the line, Chandler must make serious adjustments if he hopes to regain his former glory in the UFC.
