UFC 307 stars share their lookalikes including Brock Lesnar, Jon Bernthal, Pharrell Williams and other celebrities
UFC 307 combatants discussed their celebrity lookalikes in the hours leading up to the event. Some of the comparisons resonated fairly accurately, while few were not comparable, and there was also a dash of silliness in few of them.
This was a segment put together by popular content creator Nina-Marie Daniele as the Salt Lake City-based pay-per-view offering looms ever closer.
Brock Lesnar's name was invoked when asked who is someone people say you look like. Kayla Harrison mentioned this comparison which caused her and Daniele to laugh but the former PFL champion affirmed that this was a comparison she often received from those online.
Jon Bernthal from The Walking Dead was mentioned during this video and it was one of the headliners this weekend that brought up the actor's name. Alex Pereira mentioned that people have often compared his appearance to the actor's when the recurring question was posed to him.
Pharrell Williams was brought up as well and the comparison to the acclaimed musician actually yielded one of the more accurate connections made through the clip. Jose Aldo mentioned the 'Happy' singer in this context and Daniele instantly reacted by expressing how accurate she thought that was.

UFC fighters over the years and their lookalikes
UFC has featured many high-level mixed martial artists over the years who have inspired discourse about their resemblance to the celebrities.
Rich Franklin held the UFC middleweight title proudly throughout his time as a professional fighter. Often times through his tenure in the octagon, many compared him to popular actor Jim Carrey with his in-cage nickname 'Ace' stemming from Carrey's widely known blockbuster Ace Ventura.
Andrei Arlovski's celebrity comparison was fairly specific because he was oftentimes compared to Gerard Butler's depiction of King Leonidas in the film 300.
Sage Northcutt took part in multiple bouts within the promotion and often got compared to a character from Saved By The Bell. The bleach blonde hair and pearly whites often caused many to compare Northcutt to Zack Morris who was prominently featured on the popular 80's TV show.
There are also some internal lookalikes within the UFC roster as Bogdan Guskov has often been compared to former UFC light heavyweight title challenger Anthony Smith.
