Further, Chandler was surrounded by people, and later in the video, he replicated the famous performer Michael Jackson’s iconic dance moves.
As expected, the fighter’s Michael Jackson moves attracted eyeballs on the internet. While some fans appreciated the free and careless spirit of Chandler, others had a different take on the wild nature of the video.
