Eden Hazard is many things for Chelsea and Belgium - fast, skillful, at his best able to produce something from nothing.
A hard man he is not.
But the forward can show his feisty side, even if it is making fun of one of the greatest fighters in the world.
And it's earned him a new nickname while on duty for his country.
Hazard was caught on camera by his Blues team-mate Michy Batshuayi during the Belgium camp ahead of their next World Cup qualifier.
As the first European team to qualify, other than hosts Russia, the mood is unsurprisingly upbeat, leaving time for the players to have some fun while training.
In the process, Hazard has shown off his impressive skills, taking off MMA star Conor McGregor while doing some work on the pads.
After some short and sharp lefts and rights, Hazard puffs his chest out, bites his bottom lip and walks off tall.
But the video is all about Batshuayi's caption and a nickname we really hope sticks - "Eden McGregor".
Belgium are in action on Saturday in Bosnia and Herzegovina before hosting Cyprus on Tuesday.
