Yeah, depending on your level of athletic ability. That's what Rich Franklin did, with basically no martial arts experience.

There are some other guys who have done that. I mean, most guys have been training their entire lives at something, but as long as you are focussed on MMA, you'll be able to keep up, because so few of those guys have been directly focussed on MMA. It's a new world for pretty much everybody when they get into the pro arena.

There's a chance, yeah. And like I said, it really depends on your commitment and you athleticism. Still, I think that's a reasonable goal.
