Just today, UFC lightweight Michael Chandler revealed that he was offered a fight with the promotion's featherweight champion Islam Makhachev. Chandler later challenged Islam in a not too respectful manner.

"I've been after your ass for eight years now. Good old American wrestling is much cooler than Dagestan sambo," Chandler wrote.

Recall, June 29, Chandler was supposed to fight McGregor, but the latter broke his pinky toe and withdrew from the fight.
