If you’re an MMA aficionado you may notice cameos from MMA fighters and related figures, including:
- Bas Rutten
- Vinny Magalaes
- Krzysztof Soszynski (God, that guy is a spell check’s nightmare)
- Brian Stann
- Mark Delagrotte (along with a giant Team Sityudong banner – very Thai name for a team that seems to consist exclusively of extremely white dudes from Boston)
- Mayhem Miller
- Joe Rogan
- Salma “Heavy Bags” Hayek
And of course, 12th degree capoeira black belt Henry Winkler. That’s an awful lot of people from the MMA world participating in a movie whose message seems to be that any fat loser can do it (he wrestled in high school! Probably would’ve been all-state if he hadn’t blown out his knee and turned down a scholarship to take care of his sick mom!). Paul Blart even knocks out Mayhem with an overhand right at the end. I wonder if Peter Berg taught him that.
