Chelsea midfielder Eden Hazard mimics UFC Lightweight Champion Conor McGregor during his training session.
With Rio Ferdinand swapping the football pitch for boxing ring recently, it looks like Eden Hazard might just be preparing himself to follow suit.
While training with the Belgium national team, the Chelsea star was filmed by Michy Batshuayi throwing a tight sequence of jabs while limbering up for a gym session.
Suitably impressed with his teammate's pugilism skills, Batshuayi added the caption "Eden McGregor" to the snippet of video before sharing it on social media.
And now we simply sit back and wait for the "Belgian Butterfly" to announce his grand in-ring debut.
