The way Chandler speaks about MMA history, his love and appreciation for the fight game as a fan shines through. And it's been said before, but it bears repeating; Mike is definitely working on TV/media when his career is over. This is excellent narration/voice over work.

I pull myself up by my bootstraps, put in the time, blood, sweat, and tears. You not saying anything to me today wasn’t a coincidence, it was the universe wanting to send me a message.

Remember when lightweight was dominated by BJ. And no one cared about other fighters other than him? Then came Frankie Edgar who dethroned him then came rivalry between him and gray Maynard. Then WEC joined with Benson, Pettis, cowboy. But imo, other than BJs era, and merger of WEC, light weight wasn’t really in the spotlight til Connor came. Then over few years, it became one of the best division. Because you gotta have all balance between power, speed, skills and stamina to be at the top tier of this division.
