Chris Pratt is a Hollywood star who has been featured in both The Avengers and Jurassic World film franchises. However, he made MMA news back in January 2019 when he accompanied Bellator fighter Adel Al Tamimi to the cage.

As it turns out, the man we know as Star-Lord happens to an excellent wrestler who competed in high school. The actor trains alongside Al Tamimi and is very active in the gym. Pratt has also previously worked with UFC legend and fellow actor, Randy 'The Natural' Couture.

Al Tamimi spoke very highly of Pratt and his skills on the matt. "He has really strong hips. I know he’s a really famous actor, but he trains every day. This guy is always training. He’s very, very strong. He comes to fight."
