“I didn’t answer because I didn’t even see him fight,” Chandler said in an interview with Michael Bisping. “No disrespect or anything like that. I know that he fought Mateusz Gamrot, but I didn’t see the fight with Gamrot either.”
“I appreciate his challenge. That’s exactly what I would do if I were him, but no, thanks man. I’m talking about Conor and being in TUF – do you think I’m worried about fucking Arman Tsarukyan with a silent letter T at the beginning of his last name?
“I repeat, it was a good challenge, good for him. He ran over me, but that’s not how you get a fight with me, man.”
Note that Michael Chandler is one of the candidates for the fight with Conor McGregor, who will take the coaching chair in the next season of The Ultimate Fighter.
Currently, Michael Chandler and Arman Tsarukyan are ranked fifth and eighth in the UFC lightweight rankings, respectively.
