TORONTO — Marc-Anthony Hor is convinced he belongs in the CFL.

The burly German defensive lineman was among 18 Europeans participating in the CFL’s national combine this weekend. The 26-year-old left the event Sunday feeling he can play in the league.

“I can go with the Canadian players, I can definitely play with them,” said the six-foot-four 295-pound native of Mannheim, Germany. “I can see myself playing in the CFL, I think I have a shot.”

Hor had 28 reps in the bench press Saturday, tops among Europeans. On Sunday, the Frankfurt Universe player was solid in the one-on-one drills, showing his brute strength.

Twice he was asked to line up in matchups requested by CFL officials.

Hor’s CFL future could involve making the switch to offence. One team asked Hor if he’d be willing to play on the offensive line, which he said he would.

Hor also interviewed with all nine CFL teams and said the combine only reaffirmed his desire to take football as far as he could.
