I'm not even trying to make fun of him but legit Gronk worries me too much that he has CTE to be in a fight. If we were just joking around and thinking about this ridiculous summer thread as a real what if, I'd think Gronk beats Zion with his reach as neither guy likely even knows how to throw a punch correctly lol

gronk has taken too much punishment, i dont think he can take a serious hit from anyone anymore. in his prime sure though.

If zion gave up ball right now, i think he could be the heavyweight champion in 5 years.

If Zion can do Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (I mean we don't know if he can't), then this is a wrap. Gronk won't stand a chance against multiple Zions.

Gronk has way way worse knee injuries lol.

Gronk's body and brain are in complete shambles. He's had multiple documented concussions, and probably way more undocumented, along multiple serious back and knee surgeries, ankle injuries, hip injuries, etc.

Zion might be a big injury risk, but Gronk already has a broken up body that could explode on impact lmao.
