If I had my knowledge and skill set now in my 25 year old body, I would be a top MW/LHW in the UFC or Pride (that would've been 16 years ago). Nowadays I've sparred against active MMA fighters, and I've tapped out a few who are waaaaay undercard in the UFC (they are blue belts, I SHOULD be tapping them out), but at my age, I'd not even make the UFC.
Can you fuck @conor mcgregor nut hugger up to shut his bitch ass trick mouth?

I started training in the 90s so I'd probably be known for taking incredible beatings in guard then getting miracle subs. Yuki Nakai style. Then maybe I'd take a few years off to heal and resurrect myself with the fancy jits as Demian Maia.

Terrible. I get a headache when I get punched.
I'd be a .500 fighter at best. I spaz out when I get hit in the head, so any game plan would be worthless and I would either win by blitz or get schooled by anyone with technical ability and a good chin.

I`ve always been tall & had a long reach.I watched boxing religiously since the 70`s.I had darn good cardio in my 20`s & more street fights that I care too mention.Body shots would have been my cryptonite on my near skeleton frame.
Alot of people talk about body shots on tall guys. Body shots have never affected me much and ive taken hard teep kicks and roundhouses to liver and knees to solarplexus and have always been good. It hurts and all but never fight chamging unless its repeated kicks and wears on cardio

Its the goddamn armbars you gotta watch out for with long limbs

id have done alright. i wouldnt have beat the best in ufc/mma but i would have beat some guys. i trained for this my whole life. martial arts, wrestling,boxing, street fights, etc. I sent in my app/video to fight in ufc7/8. wouldnt have won, woulda did much better once my weight class came around. I seriously feel i coulda hung with or beat guys like pulver back in the early days of wef and what not.

Id probably dominate the regional circuit but would only do well in the lower tier big show fights.

Id definitely go to Bellator were they actually care about their fighters.

I have decent striking but im terrible at grappling.

So if i lay a paw on the guy in the First round its over. Anything after that would be a crap shoot.

Id be known as "El Perro Magnifíco"( The Magnificent Dog) more lover than fighter.
People tend to frown on dog fighting

I was in my fighting prime (good striking + okay grappling) during the open weight era, which would've sucked for me. If today's weight classes had existed at that time, I would've done okay, since there were so few people with both good wrestling and good sub defense. BJJ training would've been an issue, since the top guy in my area was a blue belt.
