Conor McGregor responds as Michael Chandler questions his hand size
As we all know, UFC’s first double champ is known for his exceptional hitting power and punch size. However, Chandler does not agree with this notion. Recently, he posted a years-old picture of Conor McGregor and Justin Gaethje, where he tried to prove that the Irishman’s hands are not exceptionally sized.
In his tweet, the former Bellator champ talked about how objects closer to the camera look bigger. Overall, he tried to conclude that the Irishman’s hand just looked massive because it was near the camera.
Shit films hahaha
“There is a term in cinema we use called “spatial recency” that says the closer and object is to the camera on a lateral plane that said object will look bigger…be better Belo…Conor has tiny hands…I spent 5 weeks with him.”
