Fighters often grab headlines with their skills and trash talk. Sometimes, it’s their little ones who steal the show. Such was the case recently when Ian Garry’s infant son became an overnight sensation. The young lad showed off his impressive UFC knowledge of various fighters, including Conor McGregor and Alex Pereira, much to everyone’s delight.

Garry is set to compete at UFC 303. He brought his wife and son along for fight week. Amidst the pre-fight tension, his son provided a much-needed moment of fun. During a meet-up with UFC commentators, the toddler showcased his talent for impersonations. Ian Garry’s son started with none other than the notorious Conor McGregor.

The little one nailed Conor McGregor‘s famous “billionaire strut” to perfection. It’s the same walk that sent fans wild after McGregor’s victory at UFC 205. However, the budding entertainer wasn’t done yet. He had more tricks up his tiny sleeves. Garry’s son tackled Alex Pereira‘s “bow and arrow” gesture. Next up was Max Holloway, and the kid didn’t miss a beat. He pointed to the ground, mimicking Holloway’s signature in-fight move with uncanny accuracy.

The adorable display left the commentators, including Daniel Cormier, in stitches. Ian Garry shared the heartwarming moment on Instagram, where it quickly went viral. This little boy has already won the hearts of fight fans without throwing a single punch. Meanwhile, his father is gearing up to fight the dangerous Michael ‘Venom’ Page this weekend.

Pre-fight antics often steal the spotlight from the actual bouts. The mind games and mental baggage come along with the fighters to the octagon. Ian Garry is turning heads with his playful imitation game. His victim is none other than his upcoming opponent, Michael Page.

The Irish fighter is set to face Michael “Venom” Page at UFC 303, but he’s already throwing verbal jabs outside the octagon. Garry recently showcased his hilarious side by mocking Page’s fighting style. He mimicked MVP’s signature sideways stance and exaggerated hand movements. Garry believed that MVP had just one weapon in his arsenal and that was his right hand.

Page is known for his flashy fighting style and in-cage trash talk. However, he didn’t take the bait when asked to impersonate Garry. He remained relatively quiet, focusing on his own preparation for the big night. This weekend’s main card encounter will answer if Page will make Garry pay for the imitation.
