8 MMA fighters that don’t look like the average fighter or don’t look like they could rumble in the cage. But they can.

Darrill Schoonover Looking like he just bought his first ever TapouT shirt in this photo, this is the TUF fighter that Rampage likes to refer to as “Titties”. It’s all funny for Team Rampage until someone gets choked out. Which is what Schoonover did to Zac Jensen.

Jason Brilz So about that ...

When I first saw Darrill Schoonover and Roy Nelson at TUF, I really thought they don’t look like mixed-martial arts fighters.

Gina Carano? Oh, I fell in love with her the first time I saw her at American Gladiators.

Even if you had superior strength I would wager that her endurance is much higher. She could just walk you around the ring for a round or two then pummel you when you're wheezing.

There are currently no NFL success stories in MMA; there are quite a few non-starters, though.

As for the ones on TUF, that show is an almost open cattle call (especially this season, since heavyweights are so few and far between) whose premise is to find out who 'has what it takes to be an Ultimate Fighter'. None of them have made it in the UFC or MMA, in general. Roy Nelson

hehe, i cant make up my mind. on one hand, i totally agree with you. on the other, i think i could pick her up, drop her on the ground and ground-n-pound. i mean, look at brock lesnar, who has relatively little mma skills, fight against Frank Mir. Mir is much better trained at MMA, but he loses due to a pure size disadvantage.

"its much much harder, thats why they get the boot from NFL and go to MMA."

And how many of them are doing any better in MMA? Oh that's right, none of them. Other than the four on TUF at the moment, it's basically a procession of embarassing defeats on minor cards. Hell, even in TUF most of them are getting beaten down. Hilarious that you still think you know better than them, though

You keep going on about NFL. You do know that Brock Lesnar walked out of WWE into the pre-season Vikings team, right? Sure, it didn't work out - but then, most of these guys don't work out in the UFC, either. Mind you, most of the NFL guys that try MMA think it's much, much harder than football.

How can they be the exception to the rule? I watched a bunch of NFL rejects on Ultimate Fighter just the other day. And the sad part is people take time out of their lives to watch these talentless bums. I'm sure they train hard, but truth is they are guys who couldnt make it in another sport and went to MMA.

Royce was actually fighting numerous guys who weren't trained in ground fighting, hence making him look far more dominate than he really was at the time. A better example of superior technique winning over brute strength, would be Fedor defeating every single heavyweight he fights.
