    I don't know any thing about Hockey. But surely the goal keepers could get away with it?

    Can easily atleast in lower levels. Actualy in national level goalie can have litle extra weight but of course it will be better if he is superb condition

    But you do need pretty good stamina or your rising up from ice, start to slowdown too much in last round

    The most fit and strongest? I believe MMA as a sport requires at least as much strength and endurance. If put up an MMA fighter against a boxer in a strength and endurance competition, the MMA fighter should at least 50% of the time.

    not all fat ****s are just fat ****s.. it depends.. smaller heavys just need some mass adding muscles doesn´t always make sense since boxing is no bodybuilder competition. Someone like Solis for example who wanted to move a lot, box from the outside and so on against Vitali and doesn´t sit on punches anyway is just a disgraceful fat joke because it made no sense at all for him to come in that fat. let alone that knee exploded under his weighing tons belly... in many other sports that rely on leverage the worlds leading contestants are not ripped.. hammer thrower, shotputter, weightlifter and so on

    Keith Tkachuk had weight problems the majority of his career.

    I would agree that in general boxers are more aerobically fit than MMA guys. But there are different skill sets and different fight durations involved too.
