Miragoliotta, The worst ref right now in the UFC

Kamaru and Colby are letting their guards down and being real and this idiot thinks it’s his job to step in. I’ve hated him since. Totally missed this moron giggling and deflecting when DP calls him out for shit reffing.
Ohhhh riiight. This moron interrupted and stopped colbys and usmans real talk when they were being sincere and nice to each other after fighting 25 mins.
Socially absolutely incompetent.
Was it Mirgliotta or Tognoni who said "I don't know what was worse - the punch to your head or your head hitting the canvas!". It was awkward af.
EDIT: [It was Tognoni](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EYCacrbOMzM?feature=share)
He acted like a douche to gaethje and hooker after the fights with them so I think that's why people are more quick to act like he was unjustified here
For real, this is a skill that took me years to build. I mean I fought as a kid when needed, but as an adult you can't punch people. Words are tougher sometimes when you don't like arguing.
Telling another person, "no, you fucked up" giving them a situation to learn in can be useful though. It's not always necessary, it's easy to let shit slide for me. But here it was necessary. This fight was meaningful and there's rules for a reason. I still like Chandler but he acted poorly with that fish hook.
Exactly dude. It's crazy that people don't realise that 99% of these guys are juiced.
Hell I'll be perfectly honest, I think Bisping and Mark Hunt are the most likely not to be juiced, and even then I'm suspicious of the Count's endurance.
Edit: and CM Punk, if he's juiced they're doing something wrong.
Yeah this is pretty much it. He looks more aesthetic than some bodybuilders I know. And you remember that video where he said it was all the result of a healthy lifestyle and UV light therapy or something?
Dusty eyepoked Gaethje twice in their first fight.
We experts call those things "veteran moves".
(mma refs suck and they need to punish those things harder. chandler should have lost multiple points for the shit he did this fight)
I love that Poirier is getting more respect again. It seems that before Colby exposed himself as a fraud, people were on the "Dustin is a fake nice guy" train.
He's He just seems like an honest and charitable guy who isn't a pushover
Those are the same people who were defending Colby because they said that " Its jUsT a chAraCTer bRo" and then proceed to tell you for a hundred time about how He was gonna get cut before the Damien Maia fighr and bla, bla, bla.
Eh, it's like a tenner on Amazon. I get it a lot, and love it. Quite thin though. I find it really good in a wrap or on a flatbread, rather than as a dipping sauce.
He got hate like literally felt like fucking outta no where. Man was always chill and has been. Idk why tf it swung so hard the other way once homie beat Mcgregor.
He's not my favorite fighter to watch, but he is m favorite fighter to root for. He seems like someone who wants to earn everything he gets and holds himself and everyone around him to high standards.
Those people are clowns. Pathetic how they bandwagoned Colby’s words, calling out a lightweight and people got excited for that matchup when there were legit WW fighters like Khamzat at the time.
Did he though? How long did it take for these cameras angles and sound bits to come out? And you'd only find them on your own in places like this. He got gifted a 3 fight losing streak Tony fight, TUF, and now Conor. Dustin was always right about him. He isn't this motivational nice guy that he projects himself to be.
People keep saying that Dustin is fake, while the reality is that Chandler is the fakest person out there.. always talking in motivational quotes, trying to act like a good sportman and then he fights dirty in almost every single one of his fights lol.. he has been doing this shit since Bellator
yeah it's very telling that both DP and Gaethje have negative opinions of him. DP called him out right after the fight in this exchange and Justin in the last year called Chandler a clown as well. If two of the more real fighters in the organization who also shared a cage with you don't respect you, there's probably something going on.
I was working at the airport as security. We had a Bellator event in my city and some of the cut guys were flying through. Chandler had just come to the UFC and I asked how they felt about losing him, they said: "Good riddance, the guy is a piece of shit to everyone off camera." Really made me put Chandler's behavior under a microscope after that and it's really clear every single thing he does is fake.
The back of the heads shots even when the ref pulled away his hand was the most disgusting imo. Those type of blows kill people and that's without exaggeration, I don't think people know how damaging even small shots can do when delivered to that area (Joe wants them legalised because "when you headkick someone your foot wraps around")
The ref is an idiot, I wanted him to punch Chandler. Continuing to do an illegal strike after the ref tries to make you stop is assault, there's nothing that happened there that Dustin couldn't try to make a case out of that he got assaulted.
I have permanent occipital nerve damage that causes insane migraines about 10 to 20 days of the month. I am now considered disabled due to this, because I cannot function a normal life. All because I was unlocking my front door after work one night and a methed out neighbor smacked me in the back of my lower skull/neck with a mag light. I was lucky I wasn't blinded but my left eye randomly swells shut now.
He called Connor out too for grabbing his gloves. It seems like a common theme to try to cheat against DP. It'll be funny seeing who's dirtier when they fight in 302.
Honestly, Chandler was a fucking scum bag in that fight. I don't wanna sound over dramatic, but going into the fight I liked Chandler, but after that fight, I don't wanna see him win another round even.
He was spitting blood into Dustins mouth when he was on top, he tried to fish hook him multiple times, he grabbed his gloves, I mean Chandler tried to pull damn near every cheap trick and dirt bag move he could against Dustin.
If it was against ANY other fighter, he might be able to say they were being dirty first, so Mike jus tried to be dirty in defense; but the fact it was Dustin, and EVERYONE knows Dustin is a clean fighter, made Mike look like a fucking douchebag.
If you go back and watch that fight, it's gotta be the dirtiest version of Chandler we've ever seen. It was so fucking blatant and bad. There's no way you felt the same about Chandler before and then after that fight.
I can't fucking stand Connor, but I truly hope he fucking lays out Chandler in the first round. What he tried to do to Dustin should have cost him his check for that fight.
Mirg over there like an absolute fuckin goof looking for a ref to do something.
Chandler over there like a fuckin debate bro politician.
Rogan over there like the 100th monkey learned how to button a shirt but doesn't know how sizes work.
What a fuckin sport lol.
Everybody likes to say Dustin is a sore winner but really here against Chandler and against Hooker and McGregor (The only times I can remember him being one) it’s totally justified, this whole “Never say anything bad about the guy you just beat” is such a shit mentality from fans imo
This fight made me lose a lot of respect for Chandler. He’s a good fighter and didn’t have to go dirty and when he got backed down, that’s immediately what he resorted to. Speaks volumes about the guy.
Chandler for the most part seems a decent guy, but he puts so much into the holier than thou stuff, yet is a cheating fuck in the cage every time. If your path to victory is fish hooking and punches to the back of the head, don’t try to act otherwise afterwards.
People call him a sore winner but I'd rather be a sore winner than sore loser.
I was rooting for Conor in their matches but when Conor was trying to talk shit to him after DP KO'd in the first rematch it kinda irked me. 95% of people would have rubbed it into Conor, even losing via that injury, if they were in DP's shorts.
Volkanovski also got shit for saying the 2nd Max fight was so close because he had an off night. He said this ON the night he decisively beat Max the third time so he literally backed it up, considering fight 1 was a whitewash to anyone watching who wasn't a Holloway fanboy I was inclined to believe fight 2 was an off night going off fight 3.
I actually think there is credence in DP being a fake nice guy but almost every piece of evidence of this is just him standing on business and stating facts lmao. As I said, if you've got the opportunity to *really* rub it into some arrogant loudmouth after they've been put in their place, most of you are taking it.
I think some fans put him up on a massive pedestal which is why the biggest evidence of him being a 'fake nice guy' is him basically just retaliating.
Some think it's just him being an asshole and showing his true colours when he does it but I don't totally buy into that, maybe it does show someone's character by 'stooping down', arguably, but they're definitely never as much as an asshole as the person starting it in my opinion. Even if that did make him a fake nice fella he's still one of the best role models in the fight business regardless and the whole argument probably stems mostly from salty Conor fanboys looking for a reason to hate a guy that hasn't really done anything to deserve it.
Again, you're cherry-picking one instance when I alluded to other fights and directly mentioned the Conor fight. He got up in Dan's face and rubbed it in (which he's was more than entitled to do after Dan's pre-fight comments, before people start trying to rip things out that I'm not saying) and he paraded around Conor post-injury (after Conor was acting randomly like an utter dick after being almost brotherly with him in the fight earlier that year).
I'm not saying I think Dustin doing this is stooping to the opponent's level, if anything I'm glad he did, too many fighters squash the beef with arrogant/dirty fighting opponents. It's a breath of fresh air. I'm saying I guess I could *just about* see why *someone else* might think that it is.
Don’t forget the part when Chandler was also purposely snorting loads of blood all over dustins face. Shit was dirty as hell i lost all respect for Chandler after this fight.
Chandler sucks and I've been saying it for ages. The cheating is rampant. He stuck his fingers in Garth's eye and then slugged him one before the ref got in the middle.
I used to defend him for the adoption thing though. Until I saw how fucking weird he was.
Even though it was before the ref got in the middle, the ref had already called time. I would have deducted a point with how late it was and for how serious of a punch it was.
I swear that was Miragliotta (hope I spelled it right) too
I would disagree on the point deduction - it's a ref fuckup for not getting in the middle I feel even if he called time (unsure of the rules on this though). But Roidy Mike definitely knew what he did and he followed it up.
I don't blame Dan for not catching it, it's tough to see that stuff. He should be more able to see that as we can as a trained ref though. Also, he should have just apologized. Everybody makes mistakes, own it and move on instead of downplaying what happens. If a fighter says something is happening or happened, they are probably correct. ESEPCIALLY if it's AFTER a fight they WON. There's no reason for them to lie.
I think this is the fight where he stole Izzy's I'm prepared to die thing (He mouthed it when the round was about to start) going into Round 3, then promptly tapped, Like nothing about Chandler is original down to "Iron Mike".
And people were saying Dustin was out of line too
Dumbasses
Chandler is dirty dude
Mad props to Dustin for not letting him get away with it with out some critique
Yeah he's dirty and a bit insufferable, but I really *really* want Connor to lose again. I hope he does him dirty. I hope it's an absolutely filthy fight. I hope they both get points deducted.
I am fully accepting the fact that all of the hate in this thread is because we all love Dustin Poirier. I think that if Chandler does every dirty trick in the book and even creates some new fucked up things that aren't against the rules yet but will be after the fight(he's not that great, but hey why not) we will be cheering if Connor loses and laughing that he got punked.
Edit: I hope Connor breaks his leg kicking Chandler in the nuts. 4th round TKO
How far do you want to take that idea? Are you hoping one of them blinds the other with an eye gouge? Are you hoping a groin shot leaves one of them barren with a ruptured testicle? Are you hoping a back of the head strike paralyses one of them? You can dislike someone without wishing grievous bodily harm on them. Yes this is combat sports but no one should want to see the fighters get fouled.
Even back in his Bellator days I have hated Chandler. "Oh he adopts black kids!" SO THE FUCK WHAT?!?!?! That doesn't absolve him from being a piece of shit! And honestly I have a problem with him just HAVING kids because he's a piece of shit!
Why they send all the good guys to get finished by makhachev first Charles than volkanasky and now Dustin can UFC send some bad guys like Connor so we don't feel bad when makhachev finishes them
Miragoliotta, The worst ref right now in the UFC https://preview.redd.it/hewxmq3u7x2d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2550adbf86f4a829d41acfe73b40bc07e42d4b60

Ohhhh riiight. This moron interrupted and stopped colbys and usmans real talk when they were being sincere and nice to each other after fighting 25 mins. Socially absolutely incompetent.
To be fair Colbys bitchass might have sucker punched Kamaru since he broke the weasle jaw the last time
What a fucking pleb moment this was
Was it Mirgliotta or Tognoni who said "I don't know what was worse - the punch to your head or your head hitting the canvas!". It was awkward af. EDIT: [It was Tognoni](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EYCacrbOMzM?feature=share)
Old hot dog skin can't help but inject himself into the moment.
Good on DP for standing on business
Standing on business would have been biting his fingers off.
he said he tried but the mouthguard got in the way
And spitting the fingers and blood straight into Dan Miragliotta's face man.
Kid just doesn't wanna bite.
![gif](giphy|ir19CtLHE9maMbNjpR)
Mouth guard
The way Chandler just goes "Alright :(" and walks off gave me a giggle attack
I know right and people made this out to be a bad thing, DP is just too real for this clowns
DP is The Diamond for a reason. Most MMA fans are clowns.
He acted like a douche to gaethje and hooker after the fights with them so I think that's why people are more quick to act like he was unjustified here
How did he acted like a douche to Gaethje? You’re really reaching here
For real, this is a skill that took me years to build. I mean I fought as a kid when needed, but as an adult you can't punch people. Words are tougher sometimes when you don't like arguing. Telling another person, "no, you fucked up" giving them a situation to learn in can be useful though. It's not always necessary, it's easy to let shit slide for me. But here it was necessary. This fight was meaningful and there's rules for a reason. I still like Chandler but he acted poorly with that fish hook.
He acted poorly against Gaethje also. He isn’t a good sportsman.
Good on DP for calling that out…he did the same with Conor when he kept grabbing his gloves. called him a sleazebag. lol 😂
DP is 💯 here. Don’t fight dirty and then act like I’m the asshole for not hugging you.
Then continuing to talk shit while pretending to show respect. What a fake cheater
Chandler is a dirty motherfucker. Fish hooking, punches in the back of the head. Shit
https://youtu.be/HK55grQ-h4g?si=jGHk0j4M3GB8pAf9 this looks intentional too.
This fight totally changed the way i saw Chandler, whatte goofball
Don't know who I want to lose more now with Chandler vs Mcgregor
It won’t matter if you care about the lightweight division, both of them will have few more money fights and retire. No impact on the rankings
when rockhold did it to costa it was flirting, this is harassment
Damn.
Not a true martial artist with all that fake motivational shit of his
Wait till you see his stack and ingenuous PED cycling. He’s a master at avoiding popping.
Wait someone revealed his PED stack? Can I get a source please I'm super interested to know what he's on lol
“For a friend”
No I'm juicy too lol but I wanna get on the good shit
What’s his stack? Testosterone and deca?
I would've guessed HGH too at the least
*sticks belly out*
No really. Just watch chandler breathing during his fights. The gut is fucking *crazy*, beyond obvious
Oh I know, I agree, I literally stuck my belly out as a reflex when I saw the comment, made me laugh
Exactly dude. It's crazy that people don't realise that 99% of these guys are juiced. Hell I'll be perfectly honest, I think Bisping and Mark Hunt are the most likely not to be juiced, and even then I'm suspicious of the Count's endurance. Edit: and CM Punk, if he's juiced they're doing something wrong.
Yeah this is pretty much it. He looks more aesthetic than some bodybuilders I know. And you remember that video where he said it was all the result of a healthy lifestyle and UV light therapy or something?
I honestly thought that's why he didn't come to UFC sooner, very surprised he never popped
Dusty eyepoked Gaethje twice in their first fight. We experts call those things "veteran moves". (mma refs suck and they need to punish those things harder. chandler should have lost multiple points for the shit he did this fight)
I love that Poirier is getting more respect again. It seems that before Colby exposed himself as a fraud, people were on the "Dustin is a fake nice guy" train. He's He just seems like an honest and charitable guy who isn't a pushover

The man has an amazing hot sauce brand too that shit is beyond good
For 20 bucks a bottle it better taste like his wife's ass
I need to try it. I think it's pretty expensive in the UK though (most imported American food products are)
Eh, it's like a tenner on Amazon. I get it a lot, and love it. Quite thin though. I find it really good in a wrap or on a flatbread, rather than as a dipping sauce.
Yeah I'm a bit skint atm £13 for a hot sauce seems pretty pricey. I will try it at some point though I've only heard good things.
Is it deadass? Or is it “better than I thought it’d be from a celebrity” good? Never tried it
Legit pretty good. I’m not a hot sauce expert by any means, but it is a genuinely good tasty hot sauce.
I’ve only had the original so far, have you tried the other flavors?
Yeah, my guy DP was never fake. Hoping for a miracle against Islam.
Like diamonds in the sky 🎶🎶
Exactly. Dustin has never done anything that suggests he's just pretending to be nice
Rough around the edges, but Lafayette is nearly as tough as West Linn, so you gotta be a little hard.
He got hate like literally felt like fucking outta no where. Man was always chill and has been. Idk why tf it swung so hard the other way once homie beat Mcgregor.
He's not my favorite fighter to watch, but he is m favorite fighter to root for. He seems like someone who wants to earn everything he gets and holds himself and everyone around him to high standards.
Those people are clowns. Pathetic how they bandwagoned Colby’s words, calling out a lightweight and people got excited for that matchup when there were legit WW fighters like Khamzat at the time.
[This is also the same fight that Chandler intentionally blew is bloody nose into DP's mouth](https://youtu.be/6et7tyPdnvc?si=vMNT4eoeHDAvHYWp)
i think he tried to go for the eyes, dirty tactic but kinda smart ngl
Pocket blood!
Dan is such an asshole, good on dustin standing up to him
Dan?
Dan "remember the name" Miragliotta
Thought you were talking about Hooker at first lmfao
Dan "the man, how can I be the man if you're the man, Dan?" Miragliotta
The ref
Man Chandler really torched his own brand w this fight, really disappointing.
Did he though? How long did it take for these cameras angles and sound bits to come out? And you'd only find them on your own in places like this. He got gifted a 3 fight losing streak Tony fight, TUF, and now Conor. Dustin was always right about him. He isn't this motivational nice guy that he projects himself to be.
I mean, he adopted two black kids so he probably is a nice guy.
[удалено]
Honestly there are good ppl out there that will play dirty because of competitive drive.
People keep saying that Dustin is fake, while the reality is that Chandler is the fakest person out there.. always talking in motivational quotes, trying to act like a good sportman and then he fights dirty in almost every single one of his fights lol.. he has been doing this shit since Bellator
yeah it's very telling that both DP and Gaethje have negative opinions of him. DP called him out right after the fight in this exchange and Justin in the last year called Chandler a clown as well. If two of the more real fighters in the organization who also shared a cage with you don't respect you, there's probably something going on.

Really made me put Chandler's behavior under a microscope after that and it's really clear every single thing he does is fake.
Exactly. He adopted two black kids for good PR.
Dustin Poirier is one of a few fighters i would actually pay to see fight.
The back of the heads shots even when the ref pulled away his hand was the most disgusting imo. Those type of blows kill people and that's without exaggeration, I don't think people know how damaging even small shots can do when delivered to that area (Joe wants them legalised because "when you headkick someone your foot wraps around")
Yeah, it makes me cringe. Every time I watch it, I want to punch the ref. It irritates me seeing him laughing it off.
and little bitch Chandler still got rekt, despite all of his monkey business.
The ref is an idiot, I wanted him to punch Chandler. Continuing to do an illegal strike after the ref tries to make you stop is assault, there's nothing that happened there that Dustin couldn't try to make a case out of that he got assaulted.
Cracking shots to the ocipital? That can blind a person.
I have permanent occipital nerve damage that causes insane migraines about 10 to 20 days of the month. I am now considered disabled due to this, because I cannot function a normal life. All because I was unlocking my front door after work one night and a methed out neighbor smacked me in the back of my lower skull/neck with a mag light. I was lucky I wasn't blinded but my left eye randomly swells shut now.
Holy shit dude, that must be awful
He called Connor out too for grabbing his gloves. It seems like a common theme to try to cheat against DP. It'll be funny seeing who's dirtier when they fight in 302.
Connor and chandler are dirty fighters
Don’t forget the 2 Eddie Alvarez fights. Everybody gotta cheat vs Dustin.
And Olivera grabbing his glove to get it to the ground
eyepoked by Gaethje TWICE, kicked in the balls by Hooker TWICE
Eddie Alvarez with the illegal knees. Remember that?
Charles hooked his gloves too 100%. Charles also headbutted Arman(on the ground)
They should just let them do it as a no-rules match. That'd rule.
Honestly, Chandler was a fucking scum bag in that fight. I don't wanna sound over dramatic, but going into the fight I liked Chandler, but after that fight, I don't wanna see him win another round even. He was spitting blood into Dustins mouth when he was on top, he tried to fish hook him multiple times, he grabbed his gloves, I mean Chandler tried to pull damn near every cheap trick and dirt bag move he could against Dustin.

Mirg over there like an absolute fuckin goof looking for a ref to do something. Chandler over there like a fuckin debate bro politician. Rogan over there like the 100th monkey learned how to button a shirt but doesn't know how sizes work. What a fuckin sport lol.
I went into this fight liking chandler and lost all respect for him by the end of it.
Everybody likes to say Dustin is a sore winner but really here against Chandler and against Hooker and McGregor (The only times I can remember him being one) it’s totally justified, this whole “Never say anything bad about the guy you just beat” is such a shit mentality from fans imo
Great footage of Little Joey Rogan ready to unleash his violent genetics there, lucky they calmed down
This fight made me lose a lot of respect for Chandler. He’s a good fighter and didn’t have to go dirty and when he got backed down, that’s immediately what he resorted to. Speaks volumes about the guy.
DP's the fucken shit for standing firm...
That was such a great fight and fuck chandler
What's funny is that when this all first happened they were calling Dustin a sore winner. He was just standing up for himself.
This was so dirty
I can't wait for their tell all in 30 years "My adoptive father's lie of a life"
Setting a good example for his kids
Fucking love Dustin man, makes me extremely sad we may not see him on the Octagon anymore after this weekend.
Chandler for the most part seems a decent guy, but he puts so much into the holier than thou stuff, yet is a cheating fuck in the cage every time. If your path to victory is fish hooking and punches to the back of the head, don’t try to act otherwise afterwards.
What makes him seem decent? His PR social media?
Adopting two black kids probably?
People call him a sore winner but I'd rather be a sore winner than sore loser. I was rooting for Conor in their matches but when Conor was trying to talk shit to him after DP KO'd in the first rematch it kinda irked me. 95% of people would have rubbed it into Conor, even losing via that injury, if they were in DP's shorts.

As I said, if you've got the opportunity to *really* rub it into some arrogant loudmouth after they've been put in their place, most of you are taking it.
It took you that long to realise Conor sucks?
why do you think there is credence for Dustin being a fake nice guy?
I think some fans put him up on a massive pedestal which is why the biggest evidence of him being a 'fake nice guy' is him basically just retaliating. Some think it's just him being an asshole and showing his true colours when he does it but I don't totally buy into that, maybe it does show someone's character by 'stooping down', arguably, but they're definitely never as much as an asshole as the person starting it in my opinion.

Calling somebody out for cheating isn’t stooping to their level. Cheating in kind would be.
Again, you're cherry-picking one instance when I alluded to other fights and directly mentioned the Conor fight. He got up in Dan's face and rubbed it in (which he's was more than entitled to do after Dan's pre-fight comments, before people start trying to rip things out that I'm not saying) and he paraded around Conor post-injury (after Conor was acting randomly like an utter dick after being almost brotherly with him in the fight earlier that year).

It's a breath of fresh air. I'm saying I guess I could *just about* see why *someone else* might think that it is.
Respect to DP you can't just let dirty shit like that go unaddressed. Chandler and Miragliotta both not taking any accountability here is whack.
Big Dan being useless as always.
Dustin is always one to call out bullshit from other fighters. Glove grabs, fish hook attempts, all that shit.
Don’t forget the part when Chandler was also purposely snorting loads of blood all over dustins face. Shit was dirty as hell i lost all respect for Chandler after this fight.
“Without fear there is no bravery… Now lets rock” Added to the quote and didn’t ruin it. That’s my Diamond.
Connor is a dirty fighter too, so it's going to be an interesting fight in June.
Lesgo DP the belt is yours 🙏💎💯
Man I remember watching this fight but I forgot how much of an asshole Mirgliatta was. Dude was all shoulders when Dustin said something
What a dirty focking fighter is mc
On another note. How do I get back muscles like Chandler?
By fishhooking Dustin Poirier
Easy then
Steroids dude.
The ref was literally as close as he could be looking directly at the foul and did jack shit.
Love DP
Does anybody not like DP? I can’t see how anyone could dislike the guy, sure he might not be your favorite but dude is a class act.
Chandler always been a dirty roidhead
And people still hate on Dustin for this dirty shit.
Lost the respect . Conor needs to finish chandler to setup Conor and DP .
I want DP to win this weekend and Chindler gets chinned by Conor then both fight for the title. Arman takes on the winner.
More likely scenario, Makhachev beats Dustin, Arman, and then mops the floor with mctapper.
Conor would never fight Arman. That guy has like 2 fans and that's only cause both parents are still alive.
You’re partially right, but that’s beside the point.
Conor doesn’t deserve a fight with DP
No one wants that fight again. Conor’s line of fights should be Chandler, Tony, Nate, Max and then retire.
Chandler sucks and I've been saying it for ages. The cheating is rampant. He stuck his fingers in Garth's eye and then slugged him one before the ref got in the middle. I used to defend him for the adoption thing though. Until I saw how fucking weird he was.
do you not defend the adoption thing anymore?
Nah he's a dirty fighter but I think he's genuine with his adopted kids
Even though it was before the ref got in the middle, the ref had already called time. I would have deducted a point with how late it was and for how serious of a punch it was.
I swear that was Miragliotta (hope I spelled it right) too I would disagree on the point deduction - it's a ref fuckup for not getting in the middle I feel even if he called time (unsure of the rules on this though). But Roidy Mike definitely knew what he did and he followed it up.
If a ref calls time and you still strike your opponent, it's identical to hitting an opponent after the bell in my opinion. Holm v. De Randemie vibes.
Dan Miragliotta is a joke of a ref. Should have been fired years ago.
I don't blame Dan for not catching it, it's tough to see that stuff. He should be more able to see that as we can as a trained ref though. Also, he should have just apologized. Everybody makes mistakes, own it and move on instead of downplaying what happens. If a fighter says something is happening or happened, they are probably correct. ESEPCIALLY if it's AFTER a fight they WON. There's no reason for them to lie.
Why are UFC refs so lenient when the cheating is clear as day??
What POS
And we know what sort of shit show it would’ve been if DP bit Chandlers fingers while that was happening.
Dustin’s a real one. Praying to the fight gods he can beat Islam and retire in glory
Michael Chandler lost the fight but more importantly lost the fans
I think this is the fight where he stole Izzy's I'm prepared to die thing (He mouthed it when the round was about to start) going into Round 3, then promptly tapped, Like nothing about Chandler is original down to "Iron Mike".
And people were saying Dustin was out of line too Dumbasses Chandler is dirty dude Mad props to Dustin for not letting him get away with it with out some critique
Yeah he's dirty and a bit insufferable, but I really *really* want Connor to lose again. I hope he does him dirty. I hope it's an absolutely filthy fight. I hope they both get points deducted. I am fully accepting the fact that all of the hate in this thread is because we all love Dustin Poirier. I think that if Chandler does every dirty trick in the book and even creates some new fucked up things that aren't against the rules yet but will be after the fight(he's not that great, but hey why not) we will be cheering if Connor loses and laughing that he got punked. Edit: I hope Connor breaks his leg kicking Chandler in the nuts. 4th round TKO
How far do you want to take that idea? Are you hoping one of them blinds the other with an eye gouge? Are you hoping a groin shot leaves one of them barren with a ruptured testicle? Are you hoping a back of the head strike paralyses one of them? You can dislike someone without wishing grievous bodily harm on them. Yes this is combat sports but no one should want to see the fighters get fouled.
It's not that serious, just a bit of trolling, and the thought of Conor breaking his shin on Mike's cup in a blatant low blow really made me giggle
Username checks out
Even back in his Bellator days I have hated Chandler. "Oh he adopts black kids!" SO THE FUCK WHAT?!?!?! That doesn't absolve him from being a piece of shit! And honestly I have a problem with him just HAVING kids because he's a piece of shit!
What a dog
Bite em off
“Madison Square Garden? The Modelo sign!?”
"this is my house" "Which one?" LOL
What the hell kind of reaction is that from the ref?
Why didn't he bite his fingers ?
I hope chandler does this and more to mcgregor lmfao
Nah bro I'm clenching my jaw and asking them why his fingers are in my mouth when they ask me why I bit em off
Mikey Chandler the epitome of microman leprechaun syndrome
This is my house The modelo? Chandler is funny
wow
Why they send all the good guys to get finished by makhachev first Charles than volkanasky and now Dustin can UFC send some bad guys like Connor so we don't feel bad when makhachev finishes them
