Dan Hooker trying to pronounce the name Nicolae Negumereanu is one of the funniest clips from MMA fighters. Israel Adesanya cannot keep it together as his teammate butchers the UFC light heavyweight’s name.

Dan “The Hangman” Hooker is one of the funniest personalities on the MMA roster. If you watch any of the vlogs from the fighters at City Kickboxing Gym, you’d know Dan adds a lot of positive energy to the gym. Recently, Israel Adesanya invited “Hangman” as a guest on his YouTube channel to talk about the best matchups in the UFC.

As the two went on to talk about the potential matchups, Hooker was caught struggling to pronounce the name of UFC light heavyweight fighter Nicolae Negumereanu. For obvious reasons, Hooker was hesitant to pronounce the fighter’s last name and had Adesanya in stitches. The UFC lightweight tried his best to not butcher the name but he got caught accidentally pronouncing the N-word.

The Stylebender and his brother, behind the camera were hilariously laughing as their teammate was butchering the Romanian MMA fighter’s last name. Adesanya’s brother swooped in with the “How’d you say his name?” comment making the clip even more hilarious.
