UFC Star Dustin Poirier Exposes Michael Chandler, Labels Him Fake And A Cheater
The UFC never runs out of fresh rivalries, from Belal Muhammad vs. Sean Strickland to Khamzat Chimaev vs. Dricus Du Plessis. While many never make it to the cage, another one seems to be brewing—Dustin Poirier vs. Michael Chandler. With Poirier nearing the final stretch of his career and looking for one last big fight, he’s already taking shots at Chandler, calling him fake. Whether this feud leads to a fight or just more drama, fans are watching closely.
In a recent chat with Robert Griffin, Dustin Poirier called out Michael Chandler, recalling how their dynamic shifted over the years. Poirier reflected on his time visiting Bellator, where Chandler was competing. Back then, Chandler showed him respect, shaking his hand and giving him fist bumps, admiring his rise to superstardom.
However, once Chandler joined the UFC, that respect turned into challenges and ridicule. Now, with Poirier eyeing a final big fight, tensions between the two are heating up.
To this, Poirier said, “He is a fake bro. He might be a good person at home but in my personal experience he is a fake man. We do this knuckle thing so I was even more mad. Let’s fight then. And he is a cheater. I could go on for days, I get so amped up about this.”
