Michael Chandler Dismisses Dustin Poirier's “Fake” Description (MMA News)

UFC lightweight contender Michael Chandler has shut down Dustin Poirier's notion of being "fake" ahead of their UFC 281 grudge match.

Poirier accused Chandler of being a phony following some dismissive comments he’s made about Poirier’s standing in the division. The two sluggers have been a part of some of the most entertaining battles in UFC history. I’m not a different person. I’m not a different person,” Chandler said. The two former lightweight title challengers are vying for another potential title shot with a victory.

The two lightweight greats went back and forth before the former interim champion was able to secure the rear-naked choke.

Visibly fatigued, Chandler was slower to engage as he ate a few punches from a fresher Poirier. On paper, the fight between Dustin Poirier and Michael Chandler was bound to be a slugfest. Despite the damage, Chandler dominated the round by keeping Poirier on bottom and landing some short punches. Chandler came out with a kick-heavy attack, which was slowed when Poirier perfectly checked a leg kick, causing Chandler's lower leg to immediately swell. Can't get enough boxing and MMA? The wrestling game would backfire in Chandler in the third round.
