#3 Rashad Evans gets a dose of the Macho Madness
“Suga” Rashad Evans will go down in the history books as one of the true greats of the sport. The former champion, in his heyday, was considered to be one of the top pound - for - pound fighters on the planet, and while he is a shell of his former self today, he is still a legend in the sport. Rashad has also worked as an analyst, lending his wealth of knowledge in MMA to breakdown the fights.

While working for Inside MMA back in 2011, Rashad was asked about his thoughts on professional wrestlers making a successful transition to MMA - similar to the likes of Brock Lesnar and Lashley. Inside MMA had also interviewed Hulk Hogan, and a snippet from the interview was shown during the program. This prompted Rashad to channel his inner ‘Macho Man’, as he tried to copy one of Savage’s trademark catchphrases.
Rashad also admitted that if he was still in his prime, he would’ve dabbled in professional wrestling.
