In a fresh jab at Chandler, Poirier referred to him as Michael Chinler.
The tweet did not sit too well with Michael Chandler who fired back with a fiery response.
Speaking of Michaels & chins. Congrats to Michael Johnson on his KO tonight. 1st KO since Sept. 17, 2016 - UFC Fight Night: Poirier vs Johnson. Clean KO at 1:35 of the 1st rd in Hidalgo, TX. Michael earned a Performance of the Night Bonus. #chinhistory #ufcvegas54 @DustinPoirier Chandler tweeted in reply.
Michael Johnson picks up the victory!
Michael Johnson picked up a KO win at UFC Vegas 54. Lucky for Chandler, it sat well in his response to Dustin Poirier.

Earlier, Michael Chandler had stated that he has no interest in fighting Dustin Poirier. He blamed it on Poirier's disrespect in the beginning of his UFC journey.
Is there any chance we see Michael Chandler vs Dustin Poirier later down the line?
