Whats the worst movie you've seen that stars a UFC fighter?

[Do The Evolution]

None of them are any good. The only decent films starring UFC fighters are the ones where they have cameo roles, like the winter soilder and triple threat.

So with that in mind whats the worst film you've seen starring a UFC fighter or fighters?


This is my pick:

Jesus that title and sub - header. A straight - to - DVD, C movie from first glance alone.

Twin peaks had bisping in it briefly, that was pretty cool

Bisping was in Twin Peaks??? Mind blown. I’m looking that up.

 

[Kid Quick]

Considering that I didn't even like Warrior, which is widely considered to be head and shoulders above the rest, I didn't waste my time and watched any other MMA movie. But from the clips I've seen on Sherdog, Never Surrender seems like a very probable winner.

That's gotta be the absolute worst.

The expendables has some good action sequences, but Randy is hard to watch

They should just stick to WWE guys like back in the days.

They look better, know how to act and imitate fights better due to experience.

MMA fighters look like neanderthals and are terrible actors. Way too off putting for the audience.

How producers chose to cast them when they’re ugly and have 0% acting experience, i’ll never know.

Never Back Down 2: The Beatdown is the worst one of those I watched. Terrible B-movie.

Other movies I have watched that includes mma fighters:
Kick-ass 2 (Chuck Liddell)
Captain America: The Winter Soldier (GSP)
Here comes the boom ( Jason Miller and Bas Rutten)

 

[Zeta Reticuli]

I haven't seen any but i've heard Tyron rap so when his movie comes out I would guess his would be the worst.

 

[Jean-MMA]

Martial Law, with Sammo Hung was the real deal back in the days

Bas Rutten was the villain with Kevin James in one episode

 

[Judoka_DR]

WTF, he made Suicide Squad FFS.

We all know Warner brothers fuck that movie up #releasetheayercut but fury and end of watch are amazing movies

 

[MCS]

Those Hector Echavarria Seagal-type MMA straight to DVD's, like "Confessions of a Pit Fighter" and "Never Back Down". Rampage used to frequent those.

I don't know how it happened in the past, but given WME's portfolio of talent and their incentive to pay off that $4.5B debt, they probably cut deals with the studio to help promote the UFC. "We think Brian Ortega has potential beyond MMA. If you put him in the 'The Tax Collector,' we'll convince Joaquin Phoenix to sign that 3 movie deal with you."

Duffee is an absolute slog of an actor.

 

[ufcfan4]

Not sure the worst but the best is most likely the movie Warrior, and Kingdom the series. I actually enjoyed Never Back Down, it reminds me of the old school martial arts movies I used to watch with similar Karate Kid story lines.

Never Back Down is fun. Recycled Karate Kid plotline which is entertaining. Plus the man Djimon elevates it with an awesome performance.

Jesus that title and sub - header. A straight - to - DVD, C movie from first glance alone.

It's also never a good sign when the lead actor gets fourth billing after the athletes who are probably glorified cameos to supporting roles at best.

 

[Superior]

Cyborg Soldier was pretty shitty.

Liddell's cameo in Kick-Ass 2 was kind of amusing.

Here Comes the Boom is a solid recommend for MMA fans in my opinion. It's not particularly funny but it is entertaining and has likable performances from the lead actors. Bas has a major role. There are a bunch of MMA cameos too and some of them have good self-referential winks to the audience- like Chael phantom tapping and then contesting it with the ref ( a la Filho fight).
