Sorry haters, Michael Chandler is here to stay.
“Obviously the fight did not go my way, but I’m in good spirits,” Chandler said on Instagram. “I’m happy, I’m healthy, I’m hard to kill. I’m impossible to kill. I’m impossible to defeat because I’m so truly blessed. Physically I’m good, a little banged up. I got punched in the ear. I’m banged up in the ear, got punched right in the ear and ripped it open. Hats off to Mauricio Ruffy. He was a tough puzzle to solve, to get going in there. He’s long, he’s fast, he’s accurate, he’s a good striker, and he landed the shots that ended the fight.”
“Massive thank you to the UFC for the opportunity,” Chandler added. “Massive thank you to Dana for being a visionary who does one-of-one, crazy, never-to-be-seen again type of events. You have these moments in life where everyone’s watching how you’re going to respond, and I promise you, just as I always have, I will continue to respond like a champion. It stinks because I know I prepared. I promise you I prepared to the best of my ability, left no stone unturned in my preparation. I can rest easy knowing that I did every single thing that I possibly could in this training camp.”
