Top 3 scariest men in MMA

Re: Top 3 scariest men in MMA

Bas Ruten,Gilbert Yvel and probably one of or all of the Diaz's (there's 3 right?). They're all crazy that's why. Though Bas is more crazy in the good way.

Gah, I hate the Diaz brothers and Gracie's thug crew. Just a bunch of punks who think they're the ****

Re: Top 3 scariest men in MMA

I once had a dream that Brock Lesnar was winning fights by simply snapping their limbs in half on command. It was the most frightening nightmare I've ever had.

Re: Top 3 scariest men in MMA

I don't get what's so scary about Lesnar, the dude is an all-talk bully in my opinion. He says that he gets a rise out of hurting people like he is some kind of sick maniac, yet he tapped hard and fast like a little girl when Frank Mir subbed him.....that's not tough/scary in my opinion. As much as I don't like him, Chael Sonnen talks the tough guy talk, but at least he backed it up by being willing to allow Paulo Filho to break his arm before the referee stopped the fight anyway.

To me, scary/tough is about being that way all of the time, not simply when you are winning or on top (e.g. Brock Lesnar). I'm not saying that Brock isn't very talented, because he is, but he ain't scary to me. I find guys like Caol Uno kind of scary (not necessarily physically imposing, but he's got tons of heart), because I saw Aoki put him in some sick submissions, had his arm severely hyper-extended but the guy escaped every submission and never tapped. When you throw almost everything you have at a guy (99% of it would tap most people instantly) and the dude is still standing, that's gotta be pretty freakin' scary.

Lesnar seems like a typical bully to me, once he starts getting hit in the mouth by some TALENTED Heavyweights, I think he'll fold. Heck, Frank Mir caught him with a nice knee in their second fight, but Frank wasn't smart enough to follow up and keep the fight standing.

My List:
1. Fedor
2. Alistair Overeem
3. Bas Rutten (he's a super-nice guy, but he is one of the most dangerous men walking the planet)

Illustrator, if you ever get to see Brock in person, I'd like you to slap him, grab sable's breast, then tell him to F off. Come back to the board and tell us if your opinion has changed or not.

Dude, if that's the case then every fighter in MMA is scary, because probably none of us can beat them in real life. I'm putting things in to the context of the discussion. I would never pick a fight with Brock, any other fighter or any other person walking the planet for that matter, but if the guy disrespects/tries to hurt my wife or kids, I wouldn't think twice about fighting him. I'm not at all saying I'd win, but I never once said I'd just go up and slap Brock, disrespect him or touch his woman either. You did.

I looked at the list as if I were an MMA fighter. If I was an MMA fighter, I wouldn't be scared of anyone (at least you are not supposed to be), but if I had to make a list, Brock wouldn't be in it. I'd look at him as a bully that just needs to get hit in the mouth. I could be wrong, I could be right, but it's my list and I'm sticking to it, and furthermore it's all in fun

Re: Top 3 scariest men in MMA

Yeah they need custom gloves made for both guys, but Carwin's are a size bigger. Just pretty scary to basically be hit with a grapefruit-sized ball of bone and muscle at insane speeds... shout out to Frank Mir.

EDIT: Yeah, my god... there's no way Silva avoids that level of aggressiveness and he'd have to really fight his *** off... would've been awesome.

Here's a Carwin pic with some gigantic random person, whose hands look like a little kid's next to Shane's despite being as tall or taller.. pretty nutty.

Here is Lesnar and Carwin themselves.

True. I'm just saying looking at him and not knowing he was an MMA fighter, would you not think twice about picking a fight w/ him?

I get your point, but honestly speaking, I wouldn't pick a fight with anyone. I try to be one of the nicest people anybody has ever met. One good reason why I don't pick fights with ANYONE is because you never know who you are dealing with. I met a guy that is about 5'6" 150 pounds that is blind in one eye, but he is a 3rd degree black belt in Aikido, Karate and (I think) Judo. You'd never know by looking at the guy that he could probably render you lifeless in under 10 seconds, lol.

Re: Top 3 scariest men in MMA

Ha damn, he even makes Brock's "lunchbox" fist look small. He's got gloves on, but still, you can tell his palm is almost an inch wider. Craziness.

I gotta root for dude always since he trains locally and knows some friends of mine... he's a good dude and a family man also... hard for people to really hate on him.

I think he'll beat Brock also... he's got the power and will KO him in the first like everyone else he's faced.

Me and a friend were talking about this fight earlier. I told him, IDK what it is, but the closer we get to this fight, the more I think Carwin is gonna win

Re: Top 3 scariest men in MMA

Holy hell. Carwin has hands the size of a Coleman cooler.

I heard the same things about Carwin. I hope he wins also, I love rooting for guys who actually try to be good human beings. Is it true that he only trains part time and is an Engineer for a living?

Yeah it was in a UFC magazine article. He said something along the lines of he wants to set a good example for his son.
