If there’s one lesson we’ve learned about Carolina Panthers great Cam Newton over the past calendar year, it’s that he’s probably best left untested.
The latest episode of FOX’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test pitted its celebrity contestants against one another for a “controlled aggression” challenge—where the “recruits” squared off in hand-to-hand combat. Newton was matched up in a heavyweight bout with competitive swimmer and five-time Olympic gold medalist Nathan Adrian.
Here was the result . . .
Newton made headlines last February when he was involved in a brawl during a 7-on-7 football event in Atlanta, Ga. His challengers in that fight experienced the same fate as Adrian did . . .

Oh, and lest we forget Newton’s famous training-camp tussle with cornerback Josh Norman in 2015 . . .
Anyway, Newton—who impressively jumped into a helicopter from a moving boat on the show’s season premiere—has successfully made it through the first four episodes of the competition.
