Former top UFC fighter, now analyst Chael Sonnen spoke about the upcoming fight between Michael Chandler and Dustin Poirier. In particular, Sonnen explained how the winner of this fight will be able to get a title shot.
“This is a dream fight, but what is at stake in it? Where did he come from? I don't know if we can already answer these questions. A month before the fight of these guys, Charles Oliveira will fight with Islam. It matters who is the champion. It is important who will own the belt. It is important that Poirier and Chandler will fight a month after that. I don't think that under normal circumstances you would consider this fight as a contender. But if everything changes, especially if Islam wins, then they will talk about it, and it can happen. However, they will have to demand it. It's an amazing fight, it excites me."
Recall that this confrontation will take place on November 12 as part of UFC 281.
