5 Epic things MMA fighters have done outside the Octagon

#3 Bas Rutten almost destroys an American football player

Urlacher almost got this smile wiped off his face

Bas Rutten is one of the true greats of MMA who is a no-nonsense kind of guy. If you’ve ever heard him speak, you know that he has very little patience for stupidity and showboating. This is why Brian Urlacher should consider himself a lucky man.

During a charity event, the story goes that Rutten stepped on Urlacher’s foot causing the latter to spill his drink during a charity event. Rutten apologised and offered to buy him a replacement drink but Urlacher was having none of it, as he asked Rutten to step outside for a fight.

The former UFC star – who is a black belt in four different disciplines – gladly obliged and was about knock Urlacher’s teeth out when they were stopped by bouncers. You are a very lucky man, Mr Urlacher.
