Jon Stewart gives himself a wedgie facing off with Max Holloway
If there’s anything civilians love to do around fighters, it’s square off and do their best tough-guy impression.
But when you’re comedian Jon Stewart, and you’re giving the men and women of the Armed Forces a well deserved break, you might as well show off your dad bod – and give yourself a wedgie.
Onstage with Max Holloway and Paige VanZant as part of a multi-base USO tour, the former host of “The Daily Show” host went shirtless and got all up in the UFC featherweight champion’s face.
The virility on display made Holloway backpedal, if only to catch his breath from laughing so hard.
“Jon Stewart is a real (one),” Holloway captioned his post.
Holloway, VanZant and Stewart have been jetting around the world over the past week for visits to Japan, South Korea, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Retired NBA star Richard Hamilton and Food Network star Robert Irvine also tagged along.
After missing out on a shot at the UFC lightweight title, Holloway (19-3 MMA, 15-3 UFC) is soon to enter training camp for his next title defense, taking on Brian Ortega (14-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) at UFC 226, which goes down July 7 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
The chance to support the troops was clearly an impactful experience for “Blessed.”
First #usovicetour trip done. Was an honor to be apart of it. Thank you to the men and women and there families for what they do. Takes a special person to do it. Again from my family to yours thank you
