Makhachev explained why he does not respect Chandler

UFC Lightweight Championship Contender Islam Makhachev explained why he doesn't respect Michael Chandler.

“I can't respect people like Michael Chandler. He talks too much, but who did this guy beat? He defeated Tony Ferguson, who almost ended his career. Ferguson needs to go, but he's still fighting. Chandler also beat Dan Hooker. He has a 2-2 record in the UFC and wants to earn a title shot again. But that's not how it works."

Recall that already on October 22 in Abu Dhabi, Makhachev will have a title fight with Charles Oliveira.
