I kinda procrastinated on an independent research project for my English class, and its one of the few things standing between me and thigh school graduation.
My original plan was to do my project on the evolution of MMA from a spectacle into a worldwide sport, but there's just too much to cover in terms of research in such a short amount of time (the project is due tomorrow).
Last week, I chose to change my topic to real-life superheroes, using Ripley's Believe It Or Not and Stan Lee's Superhumans as sources of information on people who have real superpowers.
I feel like including an MMA fighter would be a good fit for this project, and 3 names have come to mind so far:
~Cain Velasquez for his Flyweight-level endurance
~Herschel Walker for his incredible ability to adapt (using his multiple personality disorder to adapt to any situation athletically and socially)
~Anderson Silva for his precognitive counter-attacks
Can anyone name anyone else?

Considering my final grade is on the line, can we take this a little more seriously?

- Jones crazy reach
- Check out Cain Velasquez on Sports Science, it's pretty good
- GSP's muscular endurance. Watched something on him and his Vo2 Max was only at 80% max of world class endurance athletes when they were maxed out.

I like a little comic relief, but at the same time, I need help picking people to feature in this report.
So far I have:
~Daniel Browning Smith, "The Most Flexible Man In The World"
~Dean Karnazes, "The World's Most Famous Ultramarathon Runner" and the Diaz Bros' worst running-related nightmare
~John Ferraro, a pro wrestler with a skull that's more than twice the thickness of a normal skull
~The Russian Iceman guy whose name I forgot

Sounds like a good start, don't know how many examples you need but Sports Science did a cool special comparing Lucia Rijker's punching power to a top male amateur who was the same weight and she blew him away. Obviously I'm a fan of Stan Lee and thought the concept for the show was Great! Hope you get a good grade, and send me a copy when your done

It has to be 6 to 10 pages long, with an additional title page, and an additional citation page. Thankfully, because I changed my topic, I don't have to be finished until Tuesday, but I'm still gonna try and pull an all-nighter just cuz I want a reason to not go to school tomorrow.

a 6-10 page paper due for tomorrow, for final marks and you are choosing 'real life super heroes' and trying to shoehorn in mma too..
*You* should probably be taking it a bit more seriously.
