Fighters of past and present have recently spoken about Conor McGregor’s keys to victory against Dustin Poirier at UFC 264. The main theme, so far, has been about “The Notorious” going back to his roots.
For Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson, it’s going back to moving like a “Karate guy.” And most recently, Chael Sonnen pointed out the importance of trash-talking, which was last seen from McGregor in the build-up of his UFC 229 title fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018.
If there’s one man who understands the significance of talking a big game, it’s Uncle Chael.
