Former lightweight title challenger, Michael Chandler has revealed he suffered the most amount of injuries he’s ever suffered in combat during last weekend’s rematch with Charles Oliveira at UFC 309 — claiming he urinated blood following the pairing, and was “swollen” all over his body.
Chandler, who still sits at number seven in the official lightweight rankings off the back of his fight with the Brazilian, made his first Octagon walk in two years in a bid to avenge his 2021 knockout loss.
And coming up short on the judge’s scorecards over the course of five rounds in a unanimous decision (49-46, 49-46, 49-45) loss to the former undisputed champion, Michael Chandler suffered his second straight loss for the first time in the Octagon following a prior submission defeat to Dustin Poirier at Madison Square Garden.
