“As Tony Ferguson Said” – Michael Chandler Comes Clean on “Dana White Privilege” After Wrapping Up TUF Against Conor McGregor

Michael Chandler has been in the MMA conversation and buzz recently. He is now the coach for Conor McGregor‘s rival team in the highly anticipated The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) season 31. After the show, Chandler faces McGregor in his long-awaited return to the octagon.

However, Chandler‘s rise to fame hasn’t been without controversy.
