    Closer to that in style of trash talking, definitely.

    McGregor's style isn't nearly as witty as Chael. And They are both light years away from Ali.

    Nobody can match the intensity of Flair. When he gets going he has to breathe once every two words. Every single one of his words has an entire lung-full of air behind it.

    Ric Flair looks like a clown that needs to be taken to some psychiatric hospital as soon as possible.

    I'm going to have to go against the grain here as Ric Flair is a legend and Conor should be honored to be compared to him.

    WOOOOOOOOOW!!

    How f'n dare you, TS.

    You can besmirch Sonne, Ali, and Bruce Lee.... but when you try to compare a potato-eating, dag stealing, ginger-headed, pube-bearded, sheep-sleep'n and ranking-cheat'n to the Nature Boy Ric Flair..... you better take what you've got and head on out because I'm coming to burn your house down.

    Conor is definitely the Ric Flair of the UFC.

    He acts like the "bad guy" but you can't help but to root for him because of his charisma and sense of style.

    And these...

    Sonnen is much closer to Flair, but still is nowhere close.
