Hws nfl better athletes

[chalk]

Do guys like peppers jpp etc, the guys with great genetics in the nfl have great potential in mma or is overeem proof that huge muscle mass equals shit cardio? Is a big gass tank better than explosiveness?
I guess what I am trying to ask is the myth that we don't see the best hws due to the nfl etc having great funds thus attracting the best athletes just that a myth?

anyone?

I don't think it's a myth, but, what they are exposed to at a young age. More kids play football than practice MMA from elementary school through high school and college. Guys like Peppers and Pierre-Paul have better gas tanks than Overeem, but, it's a different type of conditioning. You can be built, but, have a good gas tank, as long as you build muscle endurance and just don't always work out the glamour muscles like Overeem does.
