Chandler ‘prepared to go to war’ against Gaethje at UFC 268. MORE:
It has been a whirlwind for the former three-time Bellator Lightweight Champion, but in terms of the highest moment, he’s sticking with the win at UFC 257 on Fight Island on Jan. 23.“I gotta say the debut, honestly, there was so much pressure,” Chandler told TSN. “As you know, you follow my career before, I left the relative security of fighting outside of the UFC, making the decision to come into the UFC.
”On Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York, Chandler will be up against former interim lightweight champion Justin Gaethje, one of the most exciting fighters in the UFC that is known for finishing opponents violently and collecting performance bonuses for his work.Both fighters are former title challengers and ranked in the top 5, which means the winner of this bout could earn another shot at the gold.
