I remember reading about this guy. Had never heard his name and would probably barely recognise it if I heard it again.

Dtp1979 · 20-12-2013 09:36PM

Roulon Gardner or something like that

Dtp1979 · 20-12-2013 09:37PM

He was wrestling champ in Olympics, had one fight in pride.
The only reason I know this is because he was on the biggest loser programme last year.

And if I'm right, I'll ask the exact same question as I answered, cause there's someone else!

Had Rulon Gardner but I see it was gotten. This was a tough one so had to do some research. This one is obscure.

That would be Alexander Karelin, probably the greatest athlete that very few people have heard of.

Didn't he have a move named after him? The Karelin toss or something like that where he basically picked you up from a turtle like position.

Ye that's right. It was a small mans move but because of his athleticism and freakish strength he do do it easily at heavyweight

Arawn · 23-12-2013 07:09PM

think it was his only loss in 12 years and first lost points in 6

Are we still waiting on an answer or confirmation here?

I really have no idea :pac:

Somebody pick a new question quick!

Hong Man Choi went 1-2 after losing to 2 high profile guys, Fedor & Cro Cop, in successive fights.

He stopped his next, even more high profile, opponent in the first round. Who was the opponent?

Can't think of the name but he was an American footballer or baseball player.

Well, he wrote a tell all book and blew the lid of steroid abuse in Baseball. I remember the fight, he actually came to the ring with a baseball bat!

Pity he wasn't allowed use it because he didn't last long against Choi!

Nope. Just to make sure too. I mean the event they won it at was outside the US, not their nationality

My go so.

Today, 4oz open palm gloves are compulsory, but that wasn't always the case. Who was the first fighter to wear the now famous gloves in the Octagon.

Tank Abbott?

If you mean any gloves it'd be the boxer in 1 if you mean the smaller ones they use now, something browne at ufc 4 or 5?
