Michael Chandler considers Paddy Pimblett fight ‘The People’s Main Event’ of UFC 314

MIAMI – Although Michael Chandler finds himself fighting in the co-main event of UFC 314, he believes his bout is the main attraction.

Chandler (23-9 MMA, 2-4 UFC), a former Bellator champion and UFC title challenger, takes on rising British star Paddy Pimblett this Saturday at Kaseya Center (pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+). They’ll be setting the stage for Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes, who fight for the vacant featherweight title in the main event.

Yet, despite a title on the line, Chandler sees his bout with Pimblett (22-3 MMA, 6-0 UFC) as “The People’s Main Event” of UFC 314.
