How many MMA/UFC fighters have been in street fights/pub fights?

[AusMMAfan]

I'm guessing there is quite a list:

There ones I can think of off the top of my head are:

- Volkan Ozdemir
- Bas Rutten(Ba danga ba danga)
- Overeems(Both brothers I think)
- Werdum with Covington(whatever his name if, if you call that a fight)
- Mark Hunt(started his career this way lol)
- Badr Hari(not MMA but yeah)

I'm excluding fights on TUF, street fighters like Kimbo Slice and domestic violence.

Uriah Faber and GSP have talked about being in street fights or bar fights. My guess is a lot of them.

Lee Murray was posting here and he shared a lot of his stories it has been a lot of years but I remember a poster asked him whats the best advice in a bar fight and he replied always give your back to the wall and fight that way

Only Tank Abbott. And I guess Jones and Cormier since they fought each other.

Liddell was involved elsewhere in that brawl but apparently fared much better.

There was also a bar fight story involving Couture and Hendo back in the day where Couture dragged a guy across the bar.

Shockingly War Machine has talked about being involved in some.

 

[Chain Saw]

Most of them...

Bisping fought some Russian bouncers when the bar he was in with a friend tried to give him an extortionate bar bill.

Faber got attacked by a gang in Bali, he talks about it in his book and you can probably find stories about it online if you google it

Also rousey beat a group of 100 guys up in the cinema once...or so I’ve heard
