GSP/McGregor trumps all.

 

[Peteyandjia]

GSP/McGregor trumps all.

That's a great one, especially with the story behind it; but I still love the Liddell one more. The look on Chuck's face looks straight out of a comedy, like 'who the hell is this lunatic'. Plus the fact that it's the most famous striker the UFC had ever seen at the time, meeting the person who would later become the most famous striker in the UFC. That's like some superhero origin story shit. 'Epic' is an overused word on the interwebz, but that's fucking epic.

Just because he's saying "It's an honor" doesn't mean he's starstruck, it means he respects him.

It means he knows Anderson is the GOAT.

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

It's an honor, sir.

Love seeing stuff like this. Some of these guys are even bigger fan boys than we are. The first fighter to hold two titles simultaneously in the UFC and he's still taking "make a fist" pictures with every legend he runs into

Is it just me or does Chuck look extra fucked up in this pic.

 

[RichardN7]

Far outgrew him skill-wise and career-wise. Andy the roider should bow to him now.
Condor GOAT

What story?

Personally, I think fighters are the only ones who should do the fist pose. Lol

What story?

Conor had just blown his ACL during the Holloway fight, and was looking to be out for at least a year. This is when he was making rumblings, but not a superstar yet. So it could have really derailed him. He bumped into GSP during the rehab, and talked to him about the leg, ended up getting advice & encouragement from GSP because he had the same exact injury before, and still came back strong.

Conor also bumped into one other legend during his rehab there, who also gave him inspiration:

Stupidest hair cut of all time on Connor. If you’re gonna have a man bun at least let it grow out some before you put a rubber band in the back or whatever.

 

[Sapphorous]

was?

That beard really did wonders for him
