He further added that he has the skillset to build up the matches. Chael Sonnen said, “Ian Gary has a skill set, and it’s not just go out there and punch and kick, and then say something that Conor McGregor once said in a microphone to Joe Rogan. It’s not just that; he knows how to build things up. He knows how to go into a fight and build things up. I was in Boston for his last fight. He did some really incredible things. He came to a press conference, and he broke bad on Neil Magny. Saw an opportunity, went with it, kept a straight face as though he really meant it, and believed some of these things. It was very viable.”
