Fighters gonna fight, but Connor McGregor might have bitten off more than he can chew when he asked to size up Brook Lopez court side at the Bucks game on Monday night.
The hilarious moment came in the second quarter when McGregor was doing the round and saying hello to everyone. He then stopped at Lopez, exchanged some words, before Lopez stood up and towered over him in comical fashion.

I’m not saying Lopez would definitely win. After all, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was destroyed by Bruce Lee in Game of Death. Still, it would be pretty incredible to watch a brawler like McGregor try to fight inside against Lopez and his incredible wingspan advantage.
Let’s go to the tale of the tape.
Tale of the Tape
| Stat | Conor McGregor | Brook Lopez |
|---|---|---|
| Stat | Conor McGregor | Brook Lopez |
| Age | 36 | 36 |
| Height | 5’9″ | 7’1″ |
| Weight | 170 lbs | 282 lbs |
| Reach | 74″ | 90″ |
Okay yeah, McGregor doesn’t really have a chance. Best hopes he would have would be to leg kick constantly and chop down Lopez like a tree — but that’s not even a very sound strategy.
This is probably one where McGregor needed to just keep walking.
