Action is the real life embodiment of the most interesting man in the world. Rapper, chef, wrestler, amateur bodybuilder, exotic olive oil taster.

[@jlking0098]

its many more than that if u ask him LOL

[@alcottdevalte7440]

I remember when Bronson showed up several years ago, people said that he had taught the Gracie's, DJ, Fedor, Jon, GSP and Khabib everything they know... Having watched his interviews throughout the years now, we must all appreciate this man for knowing about combat sports and making it fun for having a good time...

[@roadblues9]

lay off da crackpipe

[@alcottdevalte7440]

@Baby Boy People said that about him, and not him because they were unsure of him being a real MMA fan or not. It somehow started as a pardody of him being an MMA expert and then we all found about him being a real fan and knowing what he is talking about. How did you get to know about Bronson throughout the years if I may ask?

Bam Bam Baklava is a modern day renaissance man

[@darrenfrusciante8279]

Action is a gem. A real treasure trove of cultural references packed inside positivity and humour.

[@robbieg5538]

I wasn't introduced to Bronson through his music. It was his new found passion of bodyboarding that put him on my map. Now to find out he is a huge MMA fan just puts the cherry on top. I hope he becomes a regular on the MMA Hour.

Ariel seems like a good person. That hug was a real hug.

[@hawaiianrussian1047]

[@Lexxir]

Ariel always asking the hard questions. I’ve always wanted to know how often Action Bronson shaves his head

[@skugge78]

[@bigmikeyc83]

I think he did say mother fker but in America its no disrespect to the persons mother whatsoever its an insult to that person only. But ppl who dont speak English think its a insult about their mother but its not.
