In an exclusive interview with BroBible, Chopra shed light on his experience directing the documentary. Moreover, he highlighted Conor McGregor‘s remarkable resilience and unwavering focus. According to Chopra, McGregor embodies a unique trait commonly found in great athletes like Kobe Bryant, while drawing comparisons to legends such as Tom Brady and Steph Curry.

“He’s a mad scientist. You know, he’s obsessive. Personality-wise, he’s quite similar to Kobe Bryant, like there’s a defiance and a combativeness to him of course. But he couldn’t be the opposite of Tom Brady or Steph Curry I would say as the most gentle guy.”
