Drew Dober calls on fans for Michael Chandler fight

Drew Dober has called on fans to make a fight with Michael Chandler happen.

The fairly experienced lightweight veteran Drew Dober has challenged Michael Chandler to a fight on social media. However, he didn’t do it the way others do, instead, he called on the fans to make it happen. The message comes after Drew Dober has moved up in the division, and Michael Chandler continues to look for a fight to make his comeback. Drew Dober posted a photo showing the two of them facing off. He wrote the following caption:

“For the fans”

Drew Dober is coming off two consecutive wins. This has allowed him to bounce back from a recent three-fight losing streak and finally make a statement again. His future has been a frequent topic of discussion lately, as many have speculated that he might end his career soon.

Michael Chandler, on the other hand, finds himself in a completely different situation. He’s currently on a four-fight losing streak, the most recent of which came at UFC 250 against Mauricio Ruffy. There was a lot of speculation about his retirement following that loss, but he has continued to present himself as an active lightweight rather than a fighter on the verge of retirement.

It’s precisely this contrast that could make the matchup so interesting. Drew Dober wants to use his last two wins to fight a bigger name, while Michael Chandler needs someone against whom he can prove himself once again. Plus, the fight would fit what fans often expect. Both fighters like to apply a lot of pressure and are open to trading blows. The UFC hasn’t confirmed the fight yet, but it’s possible we’ll see a matchup between the two soon.
