Wasn't garÿ Goodridge an arm wrestler ?
The majority of football players don't make it to the NFL. Same as the majority of soccer players don't make it to major soccer teams. That's what's being compared.Probably because the nfl plays better
I'm not sure being able to explode a weight up is the same as moving your body explosively. For sure though it's closer than powerliftingHockey goons already train fighting and would probably do well.
I always thought the best foundation for any sport would be gymanstics
And I can't find any gifs or images of olympic heavyweight lifters dunking basketballs because internet searches have turned to ass, but these fuckers can explode like no one else:

That's because people take someone like Aldo and compare him to guys like mitrione and Schaub. Those guys played in the NFL and didnt start training MMA till later in their livesSoccer (Aldo, Gane, probably a ton of other Brazilian/European fighters)
It's funny that soccer has produced more good fighters than American football, which is the opposite of what you would expect. We've seen a lot of American football players in MMA but they're usually mid at best.
It's true that Aldo started MMA too young to be considered a legit crossover.That's because people take someone like Aldo and compare him to guys like mitrione and Schaub. Those guys played in the NFL and didnt start training MMA till later in their lives
Aldo was training MMA at age 17 and done with soccer. Thats like saying Jon Jones came from American football cuz he played in high school.
lebron would win the belt over his opponent dqingLebron absolutely does NOT have that dog in him. He would jump out of the cage with any adversity.
literally huhI feel like 99% of UFC fighters don’t have that dog in them except for Izzy.
Soccer should as it is global and more people play Soccer. NFL has produced some decent fighters.Soccer (Aldo, Gane, probably a ton of other Brazilian/European fighters)

CM Punk disagrees.I guess pro wrestlers and American football players have done ok. Although, these are violent sports, so maybe not what you're looking for?
