Training partner reveals Chandler avoids hard sparring, only does touch work

Russian lightweight Nikita Kulshin (9-0 MMA), who trains alongside Michael Chandler at Kill Cliff FC, says Chandler rarely engages in full sparring, preferring light touch work and drills. Kulshin notes that Chandler insists on training alone in the gym rather than sharing space with other pairs of fighters. Despite the cautious approach in the gym, Kulshin questions Chandler's psychological stability given how differently he performs inside the cage.
