Mixed Martial Arts or MMA fighters are known for their strength, discipline, and determination in fights. But when the gloves come off, many of these athletes tend to show off a great collection of luxury watches. If you are both a watch collector and a MMA fan, then you have just landed on the right page. We’ll take a look at some of the popular MMA fighters and the watches they are often spotted wearing.
Watches on Wrists of MMA Fighters
Most of these MMA fighters have a great taste in watches. While some tend to go for more flashy models, others prefer to keep it simple yet elegant. Take a look at the watches your favorite athletes wear and decide for yourself who has the best taste in watches out of all of them.
Khamzat Chimaev
Khamzat Chimaev is one of those MMA fighters that has climbed up the ranks very quickly and aggressively. Just like his performance in the UFC, his watch collection is equally impressive. He has often been spotted wearing Rolex watches especially the Black Submariner Date and the Rolex Batman.
While that does tell how he likes wearing elegant pieces, he also wears something that stands out. The athlete has been spotted wearing a Richard Mille RM055 Yas Marina Circuit, which is limited to just 50 pieces in the world.
Conor McGregor
Conor McGregor is a popular name not only among MMA fans but also anyone who is active on social media. His lifestyle leaves many impressed and so does his watch collection. McGregor has been spotted wearing the Rolex Daytona John Mayer and has even been seen wearing the Patek Philippe 5905P.
He is also into some extremely flashy pieces like the Jacob & Co Astronomia and the Daytona Eye of the Tiger. His love for watches is further shown with the pieces like Patek Philippe Nautilus 5980/1R, Rolex Day Date Olive and more.
Francis Ngannou
The insanely popular UFC fighter Francis Ngannou is also a great watch collector. He made headlines in the world of watches when Cristiano Ronaldo gifted him a Jacob & Co. Since Ronaldo was gifting him this watch, this had to be none other than a Jacob and Co. Epic X ‘Flight of CR7’ Baguette.
Besides the one he has received, he also has built a collection of his own consisting of a Rolex Sea-Dweller James Cameron and the Sky-Dweller Two Tone with Champagne dial.
Dustin Poirier
Known as the fighter with a big heart, Dustin Poirier has his own set of true fans. Along with his incredible skills in MMA, the athlete has also shown his love for watches by being spotted wearing some of the nicest pieces out there. He has been seen wearing a Jacob & Co Epic X Chrono. He has also been spotted wearing a Hublot Classic Fusion with Diamonds and the Rolex Datejust Two Tone.
Georges St-Pierre
With over 26 wins in UFC, Georges St-Pierre is nothing less of a legend in the MMA world. He does not particularly have a watch collection. But he has been often spotted wearing the same Yellow Gold Rolex Daytona attached to a leather strap. Being spotted multiple times with the same watch says how much he loves this piece and how committed he is.
