I literally walked into Sokoudjou at my local Walmart. I was turning around looking for the bathroom, and he was walking talking to his Asian girl he was with and we kind of walked into each other. I turned to say sorry and I go, "oh shit! Sokoudjou! Happy halloween man!" And held up a peace sign. He said thanks and I wished him good luck against Mousasi. I didn't want to ask for an autograph, didn't want to be annoying. Was pretty fucking awesome. Definitely the most popular fighter out of Team Quest I've bumped into. He wasn't much bigger than me. He was definitely more cut and muscular, but not by much. Weird, because on TV he looks fucking massive.
You guys ever wonder what it would be like if guys as physically gifted as LBJ and Dwight Howard got into MMA? I personally think we'd be looking at LHW and HW champions. shit I don't even know if Lebron would make 205, the guys like 250 or something
High level athletes will always do well in competition. LeBron weighs over 260 and would probably have to cut to make HW. We've had this discussion before IIRC. His physical gifts would make him stand out in any sport. Enormous height and reach, unrivaled athletic ability, powerful, agile... he'd be a force.
