Michael Chandler Tells ALL About Connor McGregor & Fighting Charles Oliveira

Recorded: September 16, 2024

UFC309 has been announced. The co-main?? Michael Chandler vs Charles Oliveira.

It's bye bye to McGregor (for now) as Chandler is setting his sights on the ultimate goal of being a UFC Champion. Mike has been out of the fighting game for 2 years now waiting patiently and building his mental game to prepare facing Connor McGregor. However, the wait has been too long and with Connor's shaky antics leading up to their previous fight date, Mike has moved on to take on the #1 contender, Oliveira.

Willy is riding solo in this 1v1 interview with the boy, talking Dad Talk, Shoutout no free shoutouts, and what it will take for Michael to be at the top of the UFC! Mike's vision is clear, and his path is set. He will be heading to Madison Square Garden in his first leg of "becoming a UFC Champion" and is "ready to go"!

Will asks Michael what he has learned most about himself during his time away from the ring. What has Mike specifically worked on, and in his late 30's how is his body feeling during training? Michael is all cylinders GO for his bout in the Big Apple and is looking to silence his loudest critics.

There is a peace about Chandler that lets you know this fight with Oliveira isn't a detour. He says it is part of the path set in front of him. He has a humble swagger and a bulked up build coming off his McGregor training, and is ready to jump right back in to another camp in Florida this week.

Catch up on the weekend with Willy and the boys in the back as they break down the NFL, CFB and news from over the weekend. JP fights through his painful addiction of South Carolina Football, Will tells the Boys about his high school number being retired, and Mitch defends his shoutout no free shoutout with his LIFE.

The Titans have Garrett and Jack on the ropes, but Jack isn't ready to quit on Levis just yet. Also, a teaser for what is to come in our Vegas Vlog from Jack and Taylor's trip to the city of lights this last weekend. Willy breaks down his thoughts for the Illinois vs Nebraska game, and his (secret) love of Michigan's "impending" downfall.

Timestamps are below for all you fact checkers out there. Make sure to give Mitch a shoutout below if you love his timestamps.

As always, it's them big hugs and them tiny kisses in these streets!

Enjoy the pod Boys!
