Cody McKenzie
Cody McKenzie tried several different looks during his stint in the UFC, from disheveled homeless person through to rejected extra from The Pirates Of The Carribean, but he never did manage to look like he actually belonged in the cage.
It didn’t help that McKenzie just wasn’t an athlete in any shape or form and had an underdeveloped physique compared to many of his counterparts, while his striking was painfully janky and uncoordinated.
McKenzie also infamously forgot to bring fight shorts for one of his appearances in the Octagon, so the care-free fighter simply walked out the nearest store, bought a pair of plain white running shorts and fought in them, not realizing that the price tag was still attached!
Nevertheless, despite the odds being dramatically stacked against him in almost every regard, McKenzie managed to graduate from TUF reality show and fight for the UFC seven times thanks in no small part due to a modified guillotine choke that he had perfected and had an uncanny knack for catching fighters with (10 of his 11 victories prior to joining the UFC had been finished with that one move).
