Do it with pads and a helmet running to catch a ball with a 6'2 245lb linebacker coming at you who is going to smash you into pieces.FACT: Richard Strachan could run 400m faster than any NFL/NBA/MLB/NHL player in history.

That's what A level athletes do.
Just because someone is a good athlete in one sport doesn't mean they have the ability to excel in another sport. There is a reason there are no great 6'2" 240lb soccer players in the world today.
UFC should be lucky, that NFL/NBA dont accept midgets.
but soccer will take care of the midegts/normal-sized people in the US.
Soccer players are average around the size of a UFC WW. There is far more talent in soccer than there is in the American Football just simply because it's by far the most played sport in the world, by far. It has a much deeper talent pool to select from. And there are literally no big players who are successful at elite level soccer. It just has a different athletic requirement than American Football. Just because someone is successful in NFL or NBA doesn't mean they'd make a great HW boxer. Different sports require different aptitudes.
Jérôme Boateng
Weight: 196 lbs
Height: 6'3
He's not even 200lbs. How would he fair in the NFL? He'd be eaten alive. Finding one slightly larger than average defender doesn't prove anything. You'll find plenty of goalies that size too. And he's about as big as you get for a soccer player.
He could be a wide receiver I suppose if he has the speed. But for a soccer player he's about as big as you get. He would get smashed if he was a running back.
why should be bigger? he is big enough ... or do you meant 300 lbs?
lmfao
