#12: Tom Hardy
Tom Hardy certainly looks the part to be winning martial arts contests, and it fits in pretty well with many of his on-screen portrayals, too. From Black Hawk Down to Venom, Hardy has had his fair share of inflicting staged violence, whether as a hero, villain, or somewhere in between.

So even if his competitors might have been, we’re not particularly surprised that his formidable fictional facade is reflected in reality. I myself wouldn’t be desperate to face off against Tom Hardy in the ring anytime soon, especially now that he’s been upgraded to a purple belt ever since June 2023.
