As he is now? Nah. He could sub the pure strikers but the size difference is crazy. He'd never get through the whole card but he'd surprise a few people

Could he defeat Royce Gracie, Guy Mezger, and Dan Severn in one night?

Keith Hackney was 200 pounds of nut busting power.
No way MM gets past even him.
Anyone claiming MM could beat Dan fucking Severn need a reality check - Dan could toss around 200+ pound men all night. He'd probably toss MM over the cage.

Had someone like MM competed at UFC 4, there would be no UFC 5. 1st killed in the cage.

I don't think he would beat Guy or Dan.

Mighty Mouse as he is now in UFC 4? He would have smoked those guys. There are two major things to remember here.
1) No one in those original UFC events were remotely close to being professional athlete. They worked out and were in good shape sure but real deal professional athletes? No. Demetrius Johnson is a machine. He's a freak who could probably sprint a mile. At a minimum he could outwork all those guys.
2) The knowledge gap is nothing to scoff at. So many guys that Royce subbed in those days had no idea what he was doing. Not to knock Royce's skill but fighters at that time just did not understand submissions at all. Demetrius Johnson with 20 years of progress would go circles around Royce and anyone else.

You mean the UFC video game ?
It's not even out yet.
We're still stuck with this one, UFC 3.
