Here is Laraque vs. GSP in a takedown match. Guess who wins:

Obviously if he gets jumped from behind or whatever that’s completely different but a 120 lb guy can sucker punch anyone and knock them out if he lands a good shot.


I don't care how big you are though, you take a poorly timed swing or don't go back into a defensive position fast enough against a professionally trained fighter and you are toast. It's not even close. These guys are so good at what they do that complex grapples and take downs are instinct to them. You can be 220 and 6'4 all you want but if you give any pro MMA fighter an opening, you will be down and out in seconds.

Obviously in prison anything goes but I doubt people will be lining up to take on the guy like you suggest. Especially if he takes out someone who tries.
