Hi guys! Here is my question - if a wild gorilla will fight in an octagon against experienced MMA fighter, equal in weight to her (like Rothwell, Hunt, Overeem or somebody else), how will this fight go? In this case, gorilla can not bite (mouthguard) and scratch (MMA gloves on hands) and also can not escape from cage. Please, tell me your opinion, it is very important cause we dispute with my friend about this situation!

Gorillas and other wild primates have been known to to rip the actual hands off of people (separating the hand from the wrist completely), rip off genitalia, and dismember and remove parts of people's faces.

I think if someone could survive 15 minutes against an angry Gorilla in an enclosed octagon, the show purse should be at least 500 million.

When I saw the title, I immediately thought of Gorilla Monsoon.

Gorilla by sub or doctor's stoppage. It's just too strong and powerful.

Mike Tyson would do it.

This is a rational technique, but Maia is not strong enough, I think Fedor or Werdum could choke out gorilla or break her legs in theory, since gorilla has no fighting intellect! I want to ask Fedor about this, when we talk, but shy!
Twerk gyms really popular in Russia, but not in Dagestan or Kavkaz regions. They have specific national traditions (even men can not wear shorts on the street). But MMA gyms more popular (in our gym number of pro and womens/amateur groups has doubled in a year).

The thing is, you can't predict a Gorilla's movement like you would with a human. It could do things that aren't humanly possible to get out any disadvantageous position or sumission attempt.
