MMA fighters who can dunk

Lets see if anyone beats me to it

Wow. Talking about cordination.
 
Penn's vertical out of the water was decent as well, I don't know if that was dunk height but it was nonetheless very impressive.

It was impressive but more for the fact he could pull up his legs so close to the upper body. Not sure it would help dunking.
 
I bet Arlovski and Overeem can. They're both tall, athletic guys.
 
I would say Ronda








Under the right circumstances
 
Dunking isn't very impressive if you are over 6ft. I am 6'3 and could dunk a basketball my sophomore year of HS. By my senior year I could dunk w/out even taking a step... and while I was very athletic, I definitely didn't have ELITE athleticism.
 
90 % of MMA 6 + footers and many below should be able to dunk the ball.

If old Fedor jumped so well, then the young one should have dunked IMO.

I dunked the ball at the max weight of 195 pounds. Now at 220, I can grab a rim.

I'm 6'1.

And white.

Here is me jumping on a sand from a stand still.

That Romero backflip video made me curious if there are any clips of an MMA fighter completing a legit dunk, and that sad Jones vid is still all we have. Unbelievable. When will a hero arise?

Still the most athletic beast who ever competed in this sport, RIP. Would have been nice if he demonstrated a dunk before he left us though...
