Ronnie coleman in the UFC!

[the-Carter]

how well do you think Ronnie Coleman would do in the UFC?!!
haha

[Vitruvian-Man]

He would either get his ankle, wrist, arm, or leg broken. hands down. probs even by someone 1/2 his size.

It doesn't matter how big/strong you are, if someone gets you in an ankle lock, and applies enough pressure to the Achilles tendon, and hyperextends the opponents foot, it will snap.

Remember when Mir did that to Brock in their first meeting?

[gettingthere]

I think if Ronnie could build up speed in his defence and get a striking technique going he'd do ok!! but does he even have this? i doubt it, and like the above comment, Mir made brock tap.....he'd probably have done the same to coleman

yea this would apply in general but how do you get a hold of him and if he charges at you its like getting hit by a car lol and even if you do he s way too stong he ll break out of any hold\lock you have on him i think..

[layeazy]

like taking a lamb to slaughter all that muscle needs oxygen after round 1 they would need a medic to revive him lol

I believe it's called... the magic of jujutsu...

Go to youtube and watch the mir/lesnar fight.

[ozy battler]

After one mad bull like minute the big man would be gassed...

This

[oldgrappler]

ROTFLMAO that coleman could fight in the UFC or any other org. for that matter.

[collar]

LOL

this is so true, if the opponent does not land any punches or get hold of coleman.

coleman himself would drop dead after the first round lol......

[AlphaMaleDawg]

a prime ronnie's only chance would be to land a few shots immediately and hope for a quick TKO. Otherwise he is screwed

[wanabeMASSIVE!]

He would get his arse kicked.

Having muscle mass doesnt make you a hard bstd, it just makes you look like one

[BgMc31]

Just looked at what happened to 5 time WSM Mariusz in his fight against tim sylvia.

[DKU]

Just looked at what happened to 5 time WSM Mariusz in his fight against tim sylvia.

Exactly - and WSM does take a bit of cardio and speed (whereas bodybuilding doesn't).

[F4iGuy]

Would bj penn take him? What about cyborg?

Twice you have brought up Lesner without mentioning the other facts of the 1st fight and the ultimate destruction of Mir by Lesner in their 2nd fight. If you remember correctly Lesner had Mir on his back bleeding and ready to go in the first 30 seconds then the ref called punches to the back of the head (replays showed that as a questionable call) stopping the fight letting Mir get his wits and then get Lesner in an ankle lock. Lesner learned and did not get caught like that in the 2nd fight. Lesner is not Pud or Coleman he is a high level collegate wrestler, D1 heavy weight champ and really for as inexperienced as he is really cannot be compared to those to want to bes. Carwin v Lesner should be interesting. Carwin a D2 champ wrestler with heavy hands vs another high level wrestler with some heavy hands of his own. Still I love the idea of anyone trying MMA to bring more fans to the sport. JMO!!

flex wheeler would do better

[BgMc31]

flex wheeler would do better

That's because Flex actually was a martial artists (Shotogun Karate, I believe) before he got into bodybuilding.

thats why i said what i said

[yannick35]

FLex didnt he train in tae kwon do, anyways who cares, Ronnie way to big to compete in MMA, is cardio would be god awful.

Unless he lost a tone of weight, lay off the steroids and work on conditionning day and night.

[supermanfw]

horrible ......too old

[Cotto333]

He would destroy his reputation, Check out Mariusz Pudzianowski VS Tim Sylvia on youtube, the guy was gassed, he is too unfit too big and too slow, and supprisingly his strength did him no good at all.

Hit the nail on the head!

[ValeTudoFighter]

I have a question, how would Frank Mir do if he competed at Mr. Olympia?

The answer is, just as good as Ronnie Coleman would do in the UFC.

[The Gladiator 911]

100% accurate reply

daymn just checked that he got destroyed

[icepick27]

i think its stupid ...and he would loose to a lightheavyweigt

[Brown Ninja]

he would also lose to Florian and Penn. But fact remains he is a BB'er not a fighter. Its like asking if Jay Cutler could beat Kobe in a game of 1 on 1.

[Brown Ninja]

Just for the record Kobe would win....

[jonny101]

Would bj penn take him? What about cyborg?

IMO BJ would beat him easy,the flexability and speed alone could win it for him but put the skill and technique that bj has in all areas in to it as well and i think it would be over quick, UFC 1 style

[shaihulud7]

he is 2 old and I bet you his cardio is not good. I don't think that he has the speed or the skills either. On top of it the guy is way above 265, the cutting limit for the heavyweight division in the UFC. I think he would get slaughtered even in a stand up match.

[Times Roman]

different sport all together.

That's like asking how ben johnson would do in a marathon.

the short answer is, he would lose quickly.

[george_lifter]

He would fail! He too big an not in that kind of shape for fighting!

[Ruutu#15]

how well do you think Ronnie Coleman would do in the UFC?!!
haha

Probably would be sleeping under 1 minute.

He is so big that could he even move his arms and legs normally?

[bodybuilder]

lol he would get his ass owned. Have you guys seen that youtube vid of him boxing. He is one of the best bodybuilders in the world but he would have no bussines in the fight game

[Cheetah]

Correct.

[paleocaveman]

I'd say ANY entry level UFC fighter in the heavyweight division would have their way with him, maybe even Rhonda Rousey haha

[Frank egg white]

Too muscular...
