LMFAO

French Canadian reporter asks GSP a question in French

Everyone pauses for a minute waiting for the translator

Dana says 'Did we not prepare for this?'

GSP says he'll do it and translate his own question like a boss

-edit- Thanks for the link @wake99

Hendricks just snubbed Chael's handshake.

For anybody who missed it

I wasn't aware Chael Sonnen and Rashad Evans were such good friends. Chael said when Dana White asked him about taking a fight Chael responded to his text with something along the lines of 'As long as it's anyone but Rashad' and Dana White texted back that it was Rashad. Just so happens Rashad was sitting right next to Chael because they were filming an MMA show and about to start filming or were in between takes. Chael Sonnen shows Rashad the text and says jokingly he could feel Rashad sizing him up for the fight when they began filming and he was talking to him.

Josh Koscheck does not have a beard while Tyrone Woodley looks massive and has a viking beard, both answer their questions very well and are some of the best of the conference especially Koscheck.

Ali Bagautinov got asked one question (they had a Russian translator but no translator for French) and answered it in the coldest manor possible, and in the end says he wishes Elliot's camp the best because they are gonna need it.

Elliot also got asked one question, and his reply before answering was 'Well, I was hoping to get out of here without having to answer any questions.'

Chael Sonnen ends the conference perfectly answering a question on if he believes the UFC will be the biggest sport in the world/or is and replies perfectly with a statement that goes along the lines of you could take this card anywhere in the world pretty much right now and it would be huge.

Dana White says 'Pow'

Everybody gets up and leaves and the mic is shut off.
