Michael Chandler claims he’s “Dana’s favorite fighter” ahead of UFC 274

Michael Chandler says Dana White privilege is real and that is because he is Dana’s favorite fighter.

Chandler was a top free agent signing back in 2020 and was the backup fighter for Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Justin Gaethje before even fighting once in the UFC. After knocking out Dan Hooker in his promotional debut, he then fought Charles Oliveira for the lightweight title in a losing effort. Now, just days ahead of his bout against Tony Ferguson at UFC 274, ‘Iron’ claims he’s Dana White’s favorite fighter.
