The Marvel Cinematic Universe is one superhero universe which took off and exploded way beyond anything anyone could have even dreamed of in the Superhero verse.

They are the most popular superhero franchise of all time and have broken all sorts of records. With 20 movies out and more already in production, the Marvel Cinematic Universe may be about to witness their biggest possible year in 2019, with Spiderman: Far From Home, Captain Marvel, and not to forget, the fourth instalment of the Avengers movie, unnamed till now, picking up where Infinity War left off.

The UFC is the best Mixed Martial Arts Promotion in the world at the moment, and as such has a lot of fighters who are high profile and show off their talents in the Octagon, as well as outside it.

As such, some of their fighters have characteristics oddly similar to some of the Marvel Superheroes that we have come to know and love.

In this article, we will talk about 3 UFC Fighters, who could be heroes from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.


#3. Daniel Cormier - Hulk:

One of the features of Daniel Cormier which everyone agrees with is that he is immensely pleasant out of the Octagon.

There are very few people who would actually say that they don't like the UFC Superstar, as he remains one of the favourite stars of anyone who watches UFC.

However, not a single person would call it a pleasant experience to get into the Octagon with Cormier. The usual pleasant UFC Fighter disappears, and instead, he leaves behind what can only be characterised as a beast, who will fight and decimate his opponents to pick up the win.

Daniel Cormier is both the UFC Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight Champion for a reason, as is evident from his skill. He is the 'Hulk' of the UFC.

#2. Conor McGregor - Iron Man:

Conor McGregor has quickly become one of the top names in the history of UFC. Without him, the UFC would not have gotten to where it has now.

His sarcasm level is through the roof, and he is great on the mike. At the same time, he is b far the richest of all the UFC Fighters or any fighter in the field of MMA for that matter.

If there is one thing about him which is without any doubt, he still is an excellent human being at heart and would do anything to defend the honour of his friends.

For that reason, when it comes to Conor McGregor, only Iron Man, Tony Stark is the possible answer for a superhero that he is closest to.

#3. Georges St-Pierre - Captain America:

Georges St-Pierre has been around in the UFC for a long time. Even when the UFC was not as popular as it is today, it was the Captain America of the company, Georges St-Pierre, fighting the good fight.

Possibly the most beloved UFC fighter in the history of the company, St-Pierre has had a long history in the company and recently made a huge comeback which is big for the company.

With rumours going on that he will take on the winner of the Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov fight, there is no limit to the number of dream matches still awaiting him. And if Conor wins against Khabib, then GSP and Conor could have their very own 'Civil War'!
