These days, it seems like everyone either wants a piece of Conor McGregor, or is being pitted against him.
Most recently, the name of actor and former "Punk’d" host Ashton Kutcher was thrown in on the mix by his own trainer, legendary Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu mentor Rigan Machado.
Machado, who holds an 8th degree red and black belt under Carlos Gracie Jr., spoke to TMZ Sports about his star student, whom he described as "one of the toughest guys in his school, across the board."
"He’s a purple belt, but he has a good background in wrestling. I think he has a chance to be one of the top guys in jiu-jitsu."
Kutcher stands at 6’3", and weighs around 200-pounds. And when asked how he would fare against McGregor, who stands around 5’9" and walks around at 155-pounds but is ranked higher at brown belt, Machado says he is assured about his student’s chances.
"I put all my money on Ashton Kutcher," Machado confidently said. "I think he can do really, really good. He’s the best."
