"All my homies love MVP" - Fans react to Michael 'Venom' Page labeling Ian Garry "fake Conor McGregor"

English MMA star Michael 'Venom' Page continues his trash-talking campaign against his upcoming opponent, Ian Garry, for this weekend at UFC 303. In an interview posted by MMA Junkie on Instagram, MVP called Garry a "fake Conor McGregor," alluding to how the Irish rising star is aping his predecessor, albeit poorly.

Page said:

"Obviously, you can see how much, you know, he [Garry] has been inspired by Conor McGregor. And I get it. Many fighters away from Ireland are being massively inspired by Conor McGregor...So I understand the inspiration. But trying to do exactly what he does is what I call fake. Because your personality might not actually be that guy, which is why people are not necessarily resonating with you."

He continued:

"With Conor, people love Conor. Massive fanbase. With you, people hate you. And I think it's because we can all feel when something is not real, when it's not authentic. And I feel it's not authentic with Garry. Therefore he's Fake Conor McGregor, the BBL version."

What did Michael 'Venom' Page mean by "BBL version"?

For those wondering what Michael 'Venom' Page meant when he called Ian Garry the "BBL version" of Conor McGregor, it means Brazilian Butt Lift. It's a popular cosmetic procedure that augments and visually enhances someone's behind.

He first dropped this line in an interview with Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour, saying:

“I think he [Garry] di*krides Conor McGregor. He’s like the fake version of Conor McGregor. Like, if Conor McGregor was a natural pretty woman, Ian’s like the BBL version that’s just a bad BBL version. BBL Garry.”
