*Elite 125ers - 145ers Vs MLB/NFL/NFL/NBA players*

[Seiryoku Zenyo]

How would guys like Cruz, Mendes, Frankie, Mighty Mouse, McGregor, Aldo, TJ, would do on a fight against the average guys from the MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL?

Destroyed by size disadvantages?
Coin toss, 50/50?
Won if they don't get into a lucky punch?

 

[Toner]

Aldo beats them all.

 

[Congo66]

They'd do a lot better in an MMA fight against them than they would playing basketball, football, baseball or hockey against them.
What did Conor look like against The Mountain from GoT's?

 

[LouisBolanos]

Don't know about MM but pretty sure FW guys would beat Royce silly at UFC1, and if they can beat Royce silly, they can win UFC1, and if they can win UFC1, they can beat NFL/NBA guys without training.

With 6 month training though NFL guys would crush Cain let alone these manlets.

 

[BigMuffler]

Guys like Conor and Aldo are basically normal sized men and would destroy most of them. MLB players aren't even necessarily that big and NBA guys tend to be light for their height.

Not so confident about FLWs though...

 

[Chivas GDL]

MLS players

 

[Hans Gercmiov]

MLB NFL NBA fights looks like some shit off Worldstar.

 

[Hi-Tech]

Frankie would destroy them. Cruz would win a 5 round MMA fight against them

 

[CasterMard]

A level athletes would crush 5'6 guys no matter the difference in fighting skill gap. 5'9 fighters would probably stand a chance against A level athletes but it would be a coin toss. 5'11 fighters would be the slight favorites.

 

[SeattleFightFan]

so this guy is not an NFL player, but apparently he played college ball.

and it took Huerta longer to take his shirt off than to end this guy.

No, those figthers are strong, is not only technique its a different figthing strength

Huerta is a LW. Walks at around 175?

How would fighters do in a FIGHT against Baseball, Basketball, hockey, and football players ? I think that question pretty much answers itself lol.

He took it easy yet still dropped the mountain with a body shot...

This proves the age of sherdoggers....any of those guys mentioned would absolutely tool any baseball or basketball player.

 

[Tika]

Struve vs Muggsy Bogues make it happen!

Crush Cain after six months!!??. That's absurd. After six months training striking exclusively, beat Wonderboy in a kickboxing match? No chance! After training six month training BJJ, beat Maia in a jj match? No fuckin way! After training six months wrestling, beat Weidman in a wrestling match? Not a chance. Put it all together, no player in the NFL , after six months training, could beat any top 10 UFC fighter from middle weight up. Maybe not even from WW up. Also, those NFL roid heads would have to be USADA tested. Since almost every NFL player does HGH and Test, eliminating that from their routine would make the beating that much worse.

Yes, yes, yes and yes!

Athleticism >> skill if the gap in athleticism is large enough. Tough pill to swallow for MMA fans but that's just a fact of physics, and the reality of MMA having low level athletes.

This thing weighs about 150 lbs.

How much training do you think it will need to rip Maia's arm off? Zero weeks. Why? Because it's athletically far superior to Maia, to the point that his BJJ skill becomes utterly irrelevant. Now obviously A-level NFL athletes are still human, they're not chimp level, but that example just shows what would happen when athleticism advantage is taken to the extreme. For NFL athletes, you scale the athleticism down from chimp to human A level, and to compensate, you add 6 months of training. Makes perfect sense.

You ask with 6 month training in striking, can an NFL player beat Wonderboy in kickboxing? The answer is a resounding yes - if an NFL reject like Bob Sapp could beat the K-1 HW champ Ernesto Hoost in kickboxing after virtually no training, an actual prime NFL linebacker with 6 months striking training would destroy Wonderboy like he's a child. Weight, size, athleticism advantage. It's not even going to be close.

one of the fighters you listed used to be a LW champ. another just fought at WW mere weeks ago. and EVERY ONE of them has more fighting accolades than the fighter in my example. and yet you question the validity of this example? LOL

dude, this video (and a handful of Minowaman fights) is the closest thing to *evidence* that you're going to get. sorry it's only 98% perfect and doesn't fully meet your needs. insert eye rolling emoji here.

 

[n.diazismylife1999]

Walk into a gym and train long enough to see big, athletic newcomers with no martial arts background walk in and get manhandled by the 5'5 hobbyists. Then you'll know your answer.

 

[mudrubble]

Assuming the major league athlete doesn't receive the 15 minutes of training it would take to beat them, I'd favour all the fighters over the non-fighters at fighting.

But with 6.5 minutes training, an A level athlete can kill 3 UFC fighters of small size.
