RDA always reminds me of this stardown with McGregor, there was a story around the shirt mcgregor was wearing and with his hand out, i’ll have to find it, gangster related..

@slimmanmma ? Can you remember?

I don’t remember the story with the shirt 🤔 but I definitely remember the stare down!

Lee • Jul 9 '22

I’ll have to find it.. it was all staged, even the fake hand shake 😂

Here we go…

“Conor McGregor trolls Rafael dos Anjos with ‘El Chapo’ handshake at UFC 197 faceoff”

Lee • Jul 9 '22

“McGregor’s taunts didn’t stop until the press conference was over, but then the featherweight champion pulled off his most impressive troll job yet.

As he stood next to dos Anjos for the staredown, McGregor put out his hand as if he was reaching out to the lightweight champion. But a second glance shows his true intentions.

McGregor was actually recreating the same photo that “El Chapo” had with Penn in Mexico before he was captured.

There’s only one Conor McGregor, and he’s nothing if not original.“

I love this! 😂 I always thought Conor was way overhyped growing up but after growing up and paying more attention I love the showman that the guy is! No one else like him!

hahahaha yeah this is so fucking funny

Joe Bloom • Jul 9 '22

Doubtful, though he is good and still pretty hard wearing

I also think Fiziev is an incredible talent

I need to watch a few more of Fiziev’s fights before this next UFC tonight 😅

Lee • Jul 9 '22

Agreed - at what point would you say he dipped from Championship material? After the Covington fight?

Slim • Jul 9 '22

I think he can definitely make a run for the 155 title. There’s way too many killers at 170 for him to make it there but I think he’s on track if he can get through Fiziev tonight! He’s shown he can stand and go the distance with the best, and he’s always got that top notch grappling and jiu jitsu black belt in his back pocket. It’s always hard to pick against RDA when he fights but I’m picking Fiziev based off of his youth, athleticism and his pin point striking 💥

Fiziev sounds exciting, Muay Thai specialist training out of Tiger Muay Thai and Sanford MMA I believe - looking forward to watching it, like you will be impressed if RDA gets through this with a win

Slim • Jul 9 '22

I wouldn’t be too impressed if RDA was to pull out a win tonight unless it was a crazy knockout or something like that, only because he’s got so much more experience in 5 round fights than Fiziev. This only being his 6th fight in the UFC and this is RDA’s 11th main event alone! But Sanford MMA is putting out some really exciting prospects right now I like it!
