My family and I are big fans of you and you are an example to me and a lot of folks of how to conduct yourself. I wish I could be more like you. Never been to a ufc event before, but if we were able to go. We would want to go see you. You are the most exciting fighter in the ufc and one of the best analysts. Keep being you brother . ...Jay
Michael as a Charles fan I appreciate how genuinely appreciative and respectful you are of Charles’ abilities. Can’t wait for your next fight, one of the most entertaining fighters
Yes!! Nothing like when he fought Islam I just know that night was a bad night for Charles but that rematch is going to be all Oliveira !!! I just know it !!!
I've always loved the ever growing respect Michael ALWAYS shows for Oliveira, to the point where he received flack from a portion of the Muslim/Dagestani community for even thinking Charles could win against Islam. Chandler wondered if the quit was in Charles before their title fight but he's shown nothing but admiration for Charles' string of impressive performances and character.
Chandler is a beast and a good human, as far as i can judge. Just legit. I loved when he came to the UFC, and as a big charles fan i always root for him.
Chandler got mocked because he picked Islam losing three times in a row and he said they will dominate him he acted like a hater ... let's talk how muslim/Dagestani haters will attack anyone who loves and praises Islam
This post pandemic surge of athletes becoming their own media platform particularly in MMA and Basketball has been amazing and I’m all for it. No diss Chandler you can be the JJ Redick of mma media with the on point X’s and O’s and championship level experience .
People forget that Oliveira couldn't actually do anything to chandler on the ground and he wasn't afraid of the submissions like dustin and Justin were
Yeah, but that was because Chandler out muscled Oliveira due to being so stocky. In a rematch Charles would TKO Chandler even faster. Charles is a opportunist fighter, he will finish you any way he can when he sees ANY type of opening. Charles is the Goat
@@mikechandlermma Hope you're not reaching the endgame just yet. We need to see you fish-hooking Conor's mouth with a few eye pokes and back-of-head shots here and there 😎
I felt pretty bad for Dariush after this fight but not that bad. It was Charles Oliveira he was up against. I thought it would have been a closer fight though.
What charles has done to the top 5 in his division is actually legendary, some of the best fighters in the ufc in my opinion and he finished every single one.
I wonder if we might be seeing a Charles 3.0 here. He seems more used to his fixed eyesight, and while i can't say for sure that correcting his vision threw him off, I wouldn't doubt the potential for such a massive change in a primary sense to affect performance.
Is it the new "motivated Conor"? Lmao. Yeah maybe Charles 3.0 will be able to wrestle and get up vs Islam when they fight again.. He just have to learn it all in less than a year. Lmao
Well, I thought the same. Dariush ground game is underrated. The guy has world no gi titles at blue, purple and brown belt (includind the absolute). He also have second place in the gi in blue,purple and brown. I love jiujitsu and finishers, so Charles is my prefered fighter in the ufc. Im glad he won and how he defended well but at the same time im sad for dariush, he is one of the fighters I like the most watching too. Hope both of them continues to have great battles.
@@LaughDragon Says the top expert that you are not, Lol. Chandler just lost 8 minutes of his time to explain how far above many Oliveira's ground skills are, then yet here you come with such that dumb comment. OMG 🤦♂️
I think he underestimated his stand up and how hard Olives hits. Cause it doesn't look as hard from the outside. Hope Beneil comes back, I still think he matches up well against Islam. But yeah defo rooting for Charles to get his belt back.
Charles walks with something different, he’s workin with his physical gifts no doubt, but his conviction in something else outside the regular Joe fighter is plain to see . Savage ? Yes , amongst other things . Well spoken Michael, I was there it was art. The crowd welcomed him and he drew from it . It was similar to JJ last performance in some aspects. Respect ✊
Absolute perfect analysis. I love how Michael gives respect to all the fighters. Also can you make a video of your prediction on Charles and Islam rematch. Love your videos. Lots of Love and respect. God bless 🙏❤.
You know I started off not liking Chandler but I came to accept him as a talented fighter who's trying to make a living in a tough business and he puts it all on line. Wish you the best Iron Mike!
A luta dele contra o Gaethje merecia o cinturão BMF. Muito mais que essa do Poirier, que provavelmente vai vencer o Gaethje de novo mas não é nem 2% BMF.
Exactly lol wtf was DC smoking. He was repeatedly saying Charles is taking shots and has to get back up, while all i saw was Charles landing elbows and hammer fists being in that position.
What I didn't understand was the "point" system. None of Charles strikes while on his back were considered significant strikes, I didn't know that was how they "measured" significant strikes while on the back.
Mike this is great. It's so cool how you don't hold anything against a man who came out on top against you. Hopefully one day you get a spot behind the desk one day. You are really good at breaking down a fight and also using your personal knowledge as a fighter.
His cardio is fine. He just gets too enthusiastic every time and then seems to forget everything, and he takes a lot of unnecessary damage. He needs to learn to stay cool, calm and collective. Like the Dan Hooker fight. Entertaining the fans is great, but at the end of the day it's all about the W. He also needs to use his wrestling capabilities more often. Like Covington, but more entertaining.
he is really good he just fights like crazy and that's why he looses using islams's world but that got him a money fight with mctupper so yea good trade lol
@@Theanomaly369 at the end of the day it isn’t about the W for everyone. Chandler put himself into position many people are dying for to fight Conor. If he did fight smart and not just stand & bang pretty much all fight he definitely wouldn’t have got the Conor fight. Chandler has been a world champion already. It’s about the $$$ since he came into the UFC and rightfully so.
Love the Credit you give Charles!! About time someone does. Big fancy words you’re using though big guy lol. Enjoyed the video as always!! Let’s Go Champ
Genuinely one of the most articulate and in-depth breakdowns I’ve watched in a while. Chandler is made for this type of shit, as well as being made to be an absolute dog in the cage. He’ll be just as successful in his post-fight career. Let’s go iron Mike 🙌
Total respect from Michael towards Charles 👏...he understands exactly what Charles is doing because he was in there with him....not now but maybe soon enough your commentary chapter begins...I BELIEVE that you can remain unbiased unlike some others I've heard....KEEP IT UP MIKE...🇺🇲🇺🇲🙏🇮🇪🇮🇪
This man is already a better desk guy than just about any of the current fighters they have doing it. I see Chandler being in the commentary booth one day after he hangs em up.
HI MIKE! You have been a great addition to the ufc, and thanks for the epic fights! I remember when you came in before your first fight and was ready as a stand-in I think. lots of hype and it was for good reason! stay safe in this crazy sport
You are a gentleman. Your respect for Charles is outstanding, that's the difference between great fighters and idiots, respect! You won a Brazilian fan with this video. You just gained another Brazilian fan because of this video. Congratulations and success in your career. Go to the top and claim your place!
I'm super happy you started your channel here on RUclips. You've been one of my favorite fighters/people. I'm ready to learn. Can't wait to see what the future brings you here. Hope you have a great day. See you at the top! 🤙
Keep doing your thing Michael! You are an amazing athlete and a great man for your family and friends, your knowledge and ability to dissect and analyse deeply any fight, puts you in a position of superiority when it comes to fight analysis ! Respect ! Don’t stop this video, me and a lot of MMA fans, we love this! Take care, see you at the top!!!
great video and great sportsmanship to give a victorious competitor a compliment like this. I hope to see Charles VS Michael again at some point. It's so good to see respect between top athletes and not just trash talk for money or ego.
A lot of people are saying Dariush got exposed, and questioning how good he really is after all. But it's not about Beneil being bad, it's about how good Charles is. Charles is just on another level right now and no one's been able to beat him at Lightweight except Islam for many, many years. He's on fire, and I wanna see him get his belt back.
Iron Mike keeping it chill and cool. A refreshing change from other MMA channels. It's good to hear current fighters break down fights and give their analysis. Great job on the videos 👍
@@henriqueirada bruh he got dominated on the ground FROM THE BOTTOM. Imagine what Charles would do from top. The guy is overrated as shi his only good win was against the no stand up gamrot that lost to Arman tsarukyan.
Let’s not ignore this time. Possibly the best lightweight era of all time. Michael Chandler Dustin Poirier Charles Oliveira Justin Gaethje All in their prime, all elite, all willing to get in there and bang. Enjoy this moment while it lasts.
Light Heavyweight had its prime years when Jonny Bones was around - Glover Teixera, Rampage Jackson, Daniel Cormier, Alexander Gustafson, Rashad Evans, etc Yesterday’s LHW is today’s LW - best overall division in the promotion
People forget that the UFC pretty much forced Charles to take the Islam fight, not only take the fight, but WHEN to take the fight. He had asked for time to heal/train, on top of asking for the fight to be in his backyard or at least on this side of the world when they did fight. But the UFC said no, we have to have Islam fight for the title in Abu Dhabi. This was within 4 months of his fight with Gaethje. A traditional camp is 12 weeks, that's 3 months. So he had 1 month to let his body heal, go straight into a camp, dieting etc. And when you're in camp, you aren't really getting better in the ways you'd need to take on someone like Islam. It was pretty unfair and when I look back on the whole weight miss and stripping, I wonder about it. And I know how crazy that may seem, but you have to at least wonder. The entire thing was weird, and it opened up Islam fighting for the title in just a few months.
Love the new channel! Really enjoy hearing your insight into the game look forward to you breaking down more fights in the future, could really see you being a great coach or commentator/analyst when it’s time to lay the gloves down inside the octagon
Michael! God bless you for being honest in whatever you do. Inspite of losing to him, you were not salty or anything. Appreciating the hard work is what a real boss does. All the best for your upcoming fights. ✌🙏
I was at ufc 262 in Houston when you and Charles fought for the title. I was excited to see you in action for the first time and if I'm being honest I didn't know much about Charles before the Tony fight. But wow that fight was amazing and the most craziest fight I've seen live. Yall have been my favorite fighters since.
I'll agree with the rest of the world you are amazing at this. We know u can't give away everything for future fights but damn bro you, Anik, and Cruz would be some of the most technical commentary. Enjoy the insight and the non bias is on point. Thanks Mike can't wait to see u at the top
Michael is built for an analysis role post fighting on ESPN or another major network. Love your work brother!

It worth mentioning that Charles was so intense but NOT TENSE! His punches and kicks were loose and powerful at impact!
And his defense improved quite a lot. That was my biggest takeaway
Seriously, his energy management is incredible. Nothing wasted, he throws loose but still chins people left and right.
His hand speed for someone with his length is not normal. His punches get there in a hurry.

But wow that fight was amazing and the most craziest fight I've seen live. Yall have been my favorite fighters since.
You’re not only the one of the most entertaining and savage fighters but also the one of the best upcoming ufc commentators. Loved it!
Love your channel Mike you and Charles both are my favorite fighters Thanks for everything you do God Bless 🙏
Wow, I didn’t know you’re a very good commentator, this Charles fan that also admirers you, is now subscribed 🐉
I'll agree with the rest of the world you are amazing at this. We know u can't give away everything for future fights but damn bro you, Anik, and Cruz would be some of the most technical commentary. Enjoy the insight and the non bias is on point. Thanks Mike can't wait to see u at the top
