Summary
Gentlemen, I cannot tell you how stoked I am to have my guest on today, Mr. Michael Chandler. If you're not already familiar with who he is, Chandler is a three-time Bellator MMA Champion who only recently made his debut in the UFC after long-time speculation of him making the switch to UFC.
On top of all of that, Michael is a devoted family man and we spent about half of our conversation talking about what it means for him to be a husband and father. We also cover overcoming a very public loss, why every man ought to bet on himself, three traps to avoid when on the losing side of the equation, Chandler's upcoming fight in November, and the conflicting aspirations of being a family man and fighter.
SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:
- Being selfish in training so you can be selfless with your family
