If Lebron James decides he wants to become a UFC fighter

[MMAProfessional]

Has he ever been punched or kicked? Really hard?

Being athletic is only a small part of being a real fighter.

True but Hardy has been pretty solid with little experience and James is a much better athlete than him.

 

[khabib time]

Imagine Lebron fighting for 250k twice a year

I don't imagine him getting out of bed for 250k let alone fighting.

 

[mmacrisis]

Flops in MMA aren't just watched your opponent jumps on top and beat the crap out of you.

 

[EYEKICKFACES]

He would just sit out in protest and never fight.

 

[The Penetrator]

I would seriously love to see him vs prime Igor Vovchanchyn...

 

[storeybuckle]

I wouldn't say a small part. I'd say 50%.
So he's already half way there.

Look at Lesnar's story.
Being a natural athlete can get you far.

Being a natural athlete with a collegiate D-1 wrestling background can get you far. Not so much basketball were men throw slaps moving backwards

 

[storeybuckle]

More flopping! That's great.

Just shows how he couldn’t take a punch
