Watching UFC, friend says he can knock out someone in the lighter weight classes out. I’ve tried explaining that these guys are trained to kill, but he still won’t give. Can anyone help me explain this to him?

Edit: still can’t get it. Might just have to agree to disagree

I say sign him up for a local fight and see what happens. Only way to get through to him at this stage of delusion

If he’s lucky, he’d get dropped like a bag of wet biscuits without landing a single punch

If he’s unlucky, one of those lightweights would choke him stupid or make him suck his own dick on YouTube


So yeah, he’s wrong

Way back when the "Tough Man" touring deal was going on I had an acquaintance who thought the same, I paid his entry fee and a group of us drove him to Mobile to watch.

It was well worth it, everyone but him had a good laugh and now every time he gets drunk and mouthy I show him the tape and he STFU real quickly.

No bar room brawler can stay in the ring with a trained pro in peak condition, it aint happening.

Does your friend have any sort of martial arts training?

Sounds like the guys I knew going to basic who claimed they'd knock the Drill Instructor out if he got in their face.

How big of a baw is he? Connor McGregor fights at about 145lbs and I think there's smaller weight classes than that. He might have a shot if he's got 70 or so lbs on someone.

Around 230. I’m still convinced that no matter what weight anyone who is trained as a profession to kill someone, he couldn’t have a chance

True but are we talking in an actual fight or the guy just stands there and lets him hit him?

He doesn't stand a chance at all. I have a friend who does amateur MMA locally, and I can't even touch him. So no, your friend doesn't have a shot in hell against a professional fighter.

You’re friend is a douche bag and you shouldn’t hang around douche bags unless you

Laugh at them on a regular basis
Use them to make you look better
Or you are a douche bag also.

I had a distant family member like this back in the day, he was a big guy and talked a lot of shite. This is back around early 90's when they used to have the Tough Man competitions come through Mississippi and he and another guy he talked shite about decided to enter so they could put the gloves on and get it over with once and for all.




He got his arse whipped
