Chandler began mixed martial arts training following graduation in 2009, when he defeated his first opponent in Turlock in the first round with a TKO. His illustrious career included winning multiple world titles, a decade as one of the world's best lightweight fighters, and participation in some of the most exciting fights in MMA history. Chandler has been on "Fight of the Year" lists on five separate occasions, indicating his ability to liven up the octagon with his all-action displays.

This victory also earned him the "Performance of the Night" bonus, which officially cemented his presence as one of the new rising forces in the UFC. He then faced Charles Oliveira for the vacated UFC Lightweight Championship at UFC 262, and after a promising first round, lost the fight via technical knockout in the opening stanzas of the second round. This resilience and skill was further demonstrated in his follow-up fight, which saw him defeat Tony Ferguson at UFC 274.
