Mystic Moicano tried to warn him.
Michael Chandler waited two years for a Conor McGregor fight that never materialized and with no clear commitment from the promotion in terms of his “Notorious” comeback, Chandler was forced to accept defeat and return to action without his red panties.
“I’m surprised [Chandler] didn’t continue waiting,” Moicano told MMA Fighting. “This guy is too dumb, man. You’re raising a bet that has everything to go wrong. McGregor is MMA’s biggest troll right now. He has no incentive to fight. What’s the incentive for Conor McGregor to fight? He makes more money outside of fighting. His purse is nothing compared to what this guy makes with his business. Right now he’s using the UFC more like a marketing agency because everybody talks about him when he says he’s going to fight, and he’s done it again and again.”
Chandler will instead rematch Charles Oliveira at UFC 309 in New York City.
“I was surprised that Chandler gave up on waiting because he’s spent so much time,” Moicano continued. “It’s like what you invest money on something and doesn’t know if it’s worth waiting or going all in. ‘Damn, should I keep trying? I’ve invested so much money and time that if I go out, I lose everything.’ I think he was so invested on this fight that it was hard for him to pull out, but he saw it was for the best. And he’s also gotten a big fight, too. Oliveira is coming off a loss but he’s a former champion, a likable guy, very popular too. I think it could have gone worse for Chandler, fighting someone tougher and not that popular.”
Chandler is banking on a victory over Oliveira to land him a lightweight title shot.
