Steve Bosse anyone?

And yes, hockey is a tough as fuck sport, do you see how fast they go before smashing into one another? Bare knuckle fights? No sport other than MMA can compare to hockey for toughness.

Theres no way im looking through 37 pages, so if its posted already sorry.

But Darcy Hordichuck (enforcer for Vancouver Canucks) trained the Chuck Liddell in the offseason. Theres some legit tough guys in the NHL, obviously ground game is totally lacking, but could they learn and adapt, absolutely, probably just as good as all these wrestling schmucks if not better

Thirty second scraps with big gloves aren't the best indicator of toughness... although hockey is one of the toughest sports. You can tell its tough by counting their teeth.

I also would say rugby as the toughest sport. During the season at college, one of the players dislocated his arm and broke a finger. What did he do... on the sideline he had fun and played around with it to freak out the girls in the audience. Guys get their ears ripped off and eyes gouged... brutal sport.

Hockey is by far the toughest sport..and not only due to the fighting. You have to be able to skate in order to play...plus the hitting. People always talk about hitting in football.. well think about skating full speed and being leveled.and then landing on ice.
