LAS VEGAS – Michael Chandler rubs Renato Moicano the incorrect approach.
Chandler (23-8 MMA, 2-3 UFC) will welcome Conor McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) again to the octagon within the UFC 303 headliner June 29 at T-Cell Enviornment in Las Vegas (pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+).
After defeating Cristian Guzman of their 170-pound grappling match Wednesday at UFC Battle Move Invitational 7, Moicano had some selection phrases for Chandler.
“I pray to MMA gods that Conor wins that battle as a result of f*ck Michael Chandler,” Moicano instructed MMA Junkie and different reporters after his win at UFC Battle Move Invitational 7. “I don’t need to speak an excessive amount of sh*t, however I believe Michael Chandler is pretend.
“I don’t know why. I have a look at him and he appears pretend to me. However I don’t know him – simply my impression. Perhaps I’m incorrect. Perhaps in the future I can beat the sh*t out of him and see if he’s true.”
Moicano (19-5-1 MMA, 11-5 UFC), who has rapidly risen as a fan favourite, doubled down on his callout of Paddy Pimblett. He’s keen to journey to the “The Baddy’s” house nation and face him at UFC 304 July 27 in Manchester.
“I need to battle on the Manchester card. I don’t know if it’s going to be doable. I don’t know if Paddy has an opponent or not. I do know he’s agreed to battle me. Now we have been speaking sh*t to one another forwards and backwards, so I believe that’s the battle to make. However who is aware of? UFC makes the principles and I’m simply an worker. I want easy-money fights and Paddy Pimblett, so far as I’m involved, is simple cash.”
Thursday, nonetheless, UFC CEO Dana White introduced Pimblett is ready for UFC 304 – however in opposition to Bobby Inexperienced. Which means if Moicano needs that battle on that card, his new hope must be for Inexperienced to fall off – or be glad preventing in Manchester in opposition to a unique opponent.
