The former Bellator champion brought his hard-hitting approach to the <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/mma\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>UFC<\/a> back in 2021. His debut knockout win over Dan Hooker immediately put the division on notice. Since then, he has faced a murderer&rsquo;s row of lightweight talent including Charles Oliveira, Justin Gaethje, and Dustin Poirier.<\/p><p>While he has had mixed results, Chandler&rsquo;s reputation as one of the most dangerous men in the octagon remains intact. Now as he prepares for his upcoming clash with rising star Paddy Pimblett, Chandler isn&rsquo;t mincing words about his intentions.<\/p><p>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/henry-cejudo-ready-to-put-the-gloves-down-for-the-final-time\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Henry Cejudo Ready To Put The Gloves Down For The Final Time!<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Michael Chandler Vows Intense Violence<\/h2><p>During a recent joint interview with ESPN MMA, Michael Chandler responded to Pimblett&rsquo;s bold prediction of a second-round finish with some threatening words of his own. The tension was palpable as the two fighters shared screen time just days before their UFC 314 co-main event in Miami.<\/p><p>&ldquo;<strong><em>Scousers don&rsquo;t get knocked out apparently, but they&rsquo;ve never been hit by the likes of me. I&rsquo;m really really excited to test his chin<\/em><\/strong>, <strong><em>I&rsquo;m going to have one foot on the gas and one foot on Paddy&rsquo;s throat. I&rsquo;m going to throw big bombs, and we&rsquo;re going to see if he sinks or swims.&rdquo;<\/em><\/strong><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Paddy Pimblett and Michael Chandler have a friendly back and forth &#128514;<br><br>&#128483;&#65039; Paddy: &ldquo;As you all know, scousers don&rsquo;t get knocked out.&rdquo;<br><br>&#128483;&#65039; Chandler: &ldquo;Scousers don&rsquo;t get knocked out apparently, but they&rsquo;ve never been hit by me.&rdquo;<br><br>&#127909; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/espnmma?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@espnmma<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/UFC314?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#UFC314<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/dcCcTdEZfT\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/dcCcTdEZfT<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Championship Rounds (@ChampRDS) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChampRDS\/status\/1908281170778894788?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>April 4, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The veteran fighter even took a jab at Pimblett&rsquo;s physical attributes, holding up his hands and saying, &ldquo;<em>Look at the size of my paws, dude.&rdquo;<\/em> That is classic Michael Chandler trash talk!<\/p><p>Chandler&rsquo;s threat to Pimblett isn&rsquo;t just empty talk. Throughout his career, he has collected an impressive highlight reel of violent finishes. Even in his losses, like the back-and-forth war against Justin Gaethje at UFC 268, Chandler has shown a willingness to engage in brutally entertaining battles. His front-kick knockout of Tony Ferguson at UFC 274 remains one of the most spectacular finishes in recent memory. That devastating knockout even earned him a Knockout of the Year award and showed that at 38, his power hasn&rsquo;t diminished one bit.<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">High Stakes For Both Fighters<\/h2><p>This fight represents a crucial crossroads moment for both men. For Michael Chandler, a win over the popular Pimblett could potentially set up the long-awaited showdown with Conor McGregor that he has been chasing for years. He has made no secret that he plans to call out the Irish superstar if his hand is raised at UFC 314. Meanwhile, Pimblett sees this as his opportunity to break into title contention. Currently 6-0 in the UFC, &lsquo;The Baddy&rsquo; believes a win over Chandler would put him in position to challenge for the lightweight belt held by Islam Makhachev sometime in 2026.<\/p><p>The five-round co-main event at UFC 314 in Miami is sure to deliver fireworks. Michael Chandler has never been in a boring fight, and Pimblett&rsquo;s aggressive style should mesh perfectly to create an explosive contest. While Pimblett confidently predicts a second-round finish, Chandler&rsquo;s threatening message suggests he has other plans. Either way, the fans and lightweight division will be watching closely on April 12th to see which fighter can back up their bold words!<\/p><p><strong>(Image Credit: Jessica Alcheh &ndash; Imagn Images)<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Michael Chandler sends a threatening warning to his next opponent!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":37227,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[1783],"tags":[2351,3215],"class_list":["post-37225","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mma","tag-michael-chandler","tag-paddy-pimblett"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>&ldquo;One Foot On His Throat&rdquo; - Michael Chandler Has A Violently Threatening Message For Next Opponent!
