As most people here know, Don "The Dragon" Wilson"--actor and professional kickboxer--was a commentator for UFC 7 and other UFC events. I was just taking a look at his Wikipedia page and ran across this sentence: "He stated several times that he would be willing to fight in the UFC himself if enough fans requested it, but it never happened."
So here's the question: Being a successful, high-level pro kickboxer, would he have had what it took to win a UFC event? The real question here is his grappling ability. Wikipedia doesn't list any grappling credentials for him, but it's worth nothing that a lot of martial artists from that time period have at least SOME kind of training in either wrestling or judo.
On the feet, he should dominate easily. But could he keep from getting taken down and either controlled or subbed? What does everyone think?
