1. Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (Mountain on Game of Thrones)

This Icelandic Viking is better known as the guy who plays “Mountain” on Game of Thrones.  He has placed in the top 3 the last 4 World’s Strongest Man competitions, and has twice won the title of Europe’s Strongest Man.

At only 27 years old there has been lots of pressure on Bjornsson to get into MMA or pro-wrestling.  Bjornsson would finally get into a MMA gym and have a sparring contest with Conor McGregor.

Unfortunately for everyone involved, Bjornsson’s “sparring” amounted to nothing more than what Nate Diaz would describe as a game of “touch butt”.  When your only venture into MMA is a game of touch-butt with Conor, you make #1 on this list.
