    Is it possible that the hardest man in the world is not in combat fighting?

    Could there be a guy out there who could beat anyone in boxing and in UFC, or anything else, but does not want to do it? For example, in Seinfeld, Jerry was a Usain Bolt-like machine that left everyone in his dust, leaving the people wondering what just happened, but despite being told that he was wasting his gift (of speed), to quote him "I choose not to run." Is there someone similar out there who "chooses not to fight", despite being the best? Nash out - His Majesty

    I think you misunderstood that episode of Seinfeld. Jerry wasn't the fastest. He got a head start that led to him wining the race. That's why he chose not to run again, because he didn't want to be exposed as a fraud.

      Of course I know this. I've seen the episode tons of times. Nash out - His Majesty

        Well if sport fighters intimate someone who wasn't pro, as better than them..You'd have to take them serious.
        I've got someone in mind. I'm sure you thought the same person as I'm thinking of too

              Very unlikely. Got to train, spar, fight the best.
              The majority of fighting is reflexes and experience.

                To be good at fighting you have to practice fighting. Combat sports gyms are the only place to do that consistently enough without getting arrested and/or killed to be the best in the world at fighting.

                There is nobody who could beat up Francis Ngannou or Tom Aspinall or Oleksandr Usyk or Rico Verhoeven in a hand to hand fight that isn't a professional fighter. Because you're passing up on generational wealth if you can beat those guys and choose not to do it.

                    There's more than 7 billion human being out there

                    There are lot of genetic freaks out there

                    All you have to do is cross two genetically gifted people and put their child in the correct environment to see some results that would defy expectations

                    Look at Moses Itauma for instance; Nigerian muscle crossed with Eastern European fast twitch fibres
