UFC lightweight Michael Chandler shared a hilarious video grab that sees him partake in a viral TikTok trend from 2020. ‘Iron’ Chandler put his own spin on the ‘Dogg Face Challenge’ that captures him downing Dustin Poirier’s hot sauce. Additionally, this came in as a clear shot at ‘The Diamond’ who has been a long-standing target for Chandler.

Chiefly, the challenge was started by TikTok user Nathan Apocada who took a swig of cranberry juice while lip-syncing a 1970s classic. The aforementioned trend was replicated across the platform and really took on a life of its own.

With Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Dreams’ playing in the background, Michael Chandler whizzed by in a toy car and captured everyone’s attention. The trend which became popular in late 2020 was a perfect opportunity for fans to vibe a classic. Chandler’s unique spin on the trend which doubles up as a call-out in some way is definitely a savvy move.

Michael Chandler: An all-round package

Chiefly, out of competition shenanigans aside, Michael Chandler has proven that he’s a highly viable commodity at 155-pounds. He made his debut in the UFC back at UFC 257 and captured the attention of fans. Chandler would earn a first-round TKO of top-ranked lightweight Dan Hooker who came in as a bonafide contender.

Not to mention, Michael Chandler has been putting his money where his mouth is for a meaningful period of time. He’s a three-time former Bellator MMA champion, and he’s faced some of the best that the organization had to offer. He came into the UFC as a megastar free agent after rounding out his Bellator contract with a TKO over Benson Henderson.

Michael Chandler has Semtex laced in his hands and can stop any lightweight fighter with a vicious barrage of strikes. Moreover, his prowess in the wrestling department is an untapped commodity so far in the UFC. With a decorated wrestling background and powerful punching abilities, there’s no wonder that Chandler is confident.

Furthermore, as seen in the aforementioned video, he knows how to generate a conversation around his every move. It’s merely a matter of time before the entire MMA community galvanizes behind him for the star power he has put forth.
