He doesn’t want to ‘deal with USADA’ - Primus thinks Michael Chandler will avoid UFC

Brent Primus doesn’t think his rival Michael Chandler will join the UFC due to the strict USADA drug testing procedures he would have to undergo.

Chandler (21-5) became a free agent after his most recent win against Benson Henderson at Bellator 243 this month. UFC president Dana White has since said he ‘would love’ to meet with the former lightweight champion Chandler.

Primus (10-1) defied the odds and picked up a huge underdog win against Chandler back in 2017, but the scores were later levelled when Chandler won the rematch the following year.

“I honestly don’t see him going to the UFC,” Primus said on What the Heck podcast.
