Fighters often rely on motivational quotes to maintain a strong mindset before a fight. UFC star Conor McGregor once remarked, “I lost my mind in this game, like Vincent van Gogh,” highlighting how his dedication to the sport consumed him, much like the artist’s devotion to his craft. Nowadays, it’s common to hear fighters share philosophical quotes, with Michael Chandler following McGregor’s lead by using Socrates’ words to showcase his physique.
Chandler is set to return to the octagon after a two-year hiatus, facing Charles Oliveira in the co-main event of UFC 309 on November 16. Fans who have been following Chandler’s training updates on social media will finally witness his elite physique in action. Alongside showcasing his progress, Chandler also referenced a famous quote from Socrates, writing:
“No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable. -Socrates.”
Michael Chandler’s physique is undeniably impressive, with the lightweight star appearing incredibly shredded. The upcoming bout will serve as a rematch of their UFC 262 showdown for the lightweight title, where ‘Do Bronx’ secured a Round 2 KO victory. This time, Chandler will aim to avenge that loss. While the outcome remains uncertain, fans will finally see how it unfolds this weekend at UFC 309.
