Michael Chandler is one of the biggest stars in MMA and there’s a reason for it. Prior to being recruited to the UFC’s lightweight division earlier this year, he fought outside of the UFC for twelve years and most recently with Bellator, where he was a three-time champion.
Chandler is recognized as being one of the most physically in shape and explosive fighters in MMA (apart from Yoel Romero) and is well-respected for his mindset in the face of adversity and defeat. Outside of the cage, he’s a motivational speaker and been interviewed by some of the most respected names in the personal development industry , including Lewis Howes, about the mindset required to become and remain a champion.
Despite all this, his failures have been numerous. Check out this 5-minute clip of interview highlights with Michael where he discusses how his failures have been “super necessary” in propelling him to where he is today.
