ORCHARD PARK, NY – DECEMBER 24: Ndamukong Suh
ORCHARD PARK, NY – DECEMBER 24: Ndamukong Suh /

28. Ndamukong Suh in the UFC

Ndamukong Suh is a talented football player and one of the main pieces of a strong Miami Dolphins defense. But, despite all of the strong points, he does have a poor reputation for one aspect of his game.

Suh is widely known around the league as a dirty player for some of the incidents that have happened throughout his time with the Dolphins and the Detroit Lions. With all of the cheap shots and dirty hits that he’s done throughout the years, he’s always had fans thinking he’s immature and out to injure quarterbacks or players that get in his way.

The Dolphins defensive tackle has lost over $400,000 throughout his career, but maybe it’s time to transition that anger and animosity into another sport, and maybe make that money he’s lost from his fines back in a unique way. The answer is simple: it’s time to step into the Octagon.

Suh has a huge frame to work with, standing at 6-foot-4 and 305 pounds, and could make for an impressive heavyweight in any MMA fight. He has shown he has some serious power with his kicks, granted while he’s wearing cleats, and is incredibly fast for his size. He would obviously have to cut some weight if he was looking to actually make this a legitimate fight, but imagine Suh up against a guy like Stipe Miocic or Alistair Overeem in the UFC.

It would probably have to be after his NFL career wraps up, but it’d be a fun sight to see Suh in the Octagon.
