Pretty good list. I think they were referring to current fighters, i keep seeing these videos pop up on my youtube with different fighters answering the questions
I thought about putting Jon Jones in there too since he is back in the testing pool
For goat mic skills i agree that its Connor but ive been watching alot of old Chael Sonnen fights and interviews. Dude got me laughing
That whole situation with Wanderlei on TUF had me in tears. The "I cant let you get close" situation
I missed out on so many great moments. I wish i became a MMA fan sooner but i was a boxing fan first and had to push through the bias
Chael is arguably the best on the mic ever.
Conor had that swag and was quick with the wit and exuded a sorta Ric Flair vibe. But when he clashed withe Mayweather the schtick got over exposed. The Khabib build up was tasteless. Then he tried to put on the humble appearance until Porier 3. Just became unlikeable.
Chael’s gimmick worked even when he was a shadow of himself in Bellator. Even if he was inspired by Superstar Billy Graham…Chael was hilarious. And he knew how to sell a fight.
I guess the lesson we take from this post. When in doubt, copy from pro wrestling. That’s why Ilia is lame. He’s copying McGregor. Whereas Conor was like Rock/Flair.
DDP, on the other hand, is the most savage ish talker. He knows how to get under peoples skin.
The worst is when someone is screaming about how DDP is going to call him daddy…and Dricus says maybe he’ll be a better father than he is to his own son…my words cannot convey how diabolical this man is lol.
