Disagree 100%

I went to HS in a CHL town and went to school with half a dozen future NHL'ers.

Out of the 6 that went to the NHL to have careers, TWO were good athletes. The other four were big and tall, not inordinately so and pretty uncoordinated. I used to play basketball with them frequently.

Out of all 6, not a single one could dunk a basketball. One could dribble decently. The lone short guy was a decent shooter. In P.E none of them were particularly gifted athletes. They were not fast sprinters, they were not good distance runners. They couldn't throw or catch a football for shit.

If any of them had tried out for our basketball team, we finished 5th at the AA tournament, they would have rode pine. If any of them had tried out for our football team, we won the provincial title once and lost in the final the other year, some of them MIGHT have played on the D-Line.

They were not even close to being the most athletic kids at that school.

I think the following hockey players could make it in the UFC:
1. Arod
2. Dan Marino
3. Kobe Bryant
4. Mia Hamm
5. Tiger Woods

all others have no shot

Mickey's Fine Malt Liquor asked Tito Ortiz "what is the second toughest sport behind MMA?" and Tito said it's got to be hockey because of what they are able to do on skates. He also said that hockey players are the toughest athletes.

What NHL player if any do you think any hockey player might make it into the UFC?

Actually......i really can't undertand why did you make this stupid qustion for?? Whta's the link between a nhl atlethe and a ufc/mma fighterò.

This is the retarded shit I've come to expect from the geniuses here at Sherdog. Hockey players are tough. UFC fighters are tough. Some of the guys working at your local 7-11 might be tough. The bouncer at your favourite bar might be tough. If they were in the UFC, you could discuss the issue. Until then, get drunk and talk your retard talk with your stupid friends, not on here. It takes up space that the grown ups could be using.
