everyone will immediately say some mma fighter but how usefull are mma things in real life? most of it is useless if someone gouges your eye

imo the toughest person is probably a soldier and probably some guy form the middle east or africa. Someone who will gouge your eye

Only problem with this argument is that a lot of mm fighters are/were soldiers.

Plus, imagine someone like Cain Velazquez powering a double into side control and then eye gouging or nut punching some dude. Yeaaa...

^^^
Chris Leben wasn't a soldier & I'd near say he's the toughest...does anything hurt that dude??
Also shoutout to Rich Frankilin & Forrest Griffin, Honourable mention.

I know this is a trolling thread for teh lulz (not a particularly good one though), but I don't get this logic. Because MMA fighters don't break the rules of their sport by eye gouging, they are incapable of doing so in an actual fight?

And how are we defining the toughest? Who would win a worldwide open weight no holds barred tournament? MMA fighters are kind of the only option, since these eye gouging soldiers are still anonymous.

Jon Jones can beat up anybody in the world at any weight class.

Cabbage?

I refuse to explain to you why that stuck out as ignorant.

Tough people don't come from a region, it's ingrained in them.
Give your head a shake.

Every Hawaiian I've seen fight has been tough as nails.

I'm not sure why I'm bothering, but I doubt you could attribute somebody's toughness entirely to genetics. There would certainly be environmental factors involved, and I'm not sure what environment would breed toughness more often than growing up in a warzone.

^ Also depends on one's definition of 'toughness'.

Meh.

Kendall Grove.

Prime Fedor.

In MMA, I think Chris Leben is the toughest dude. In the world, I have no freaking clue and it is kind of impossible to quantify.
