This photo below does not do him justice at all, he's like 10 time the size and way more ripped than this photo shows.

    The F*ck is wrong with his lower chest....

    seems like he needs to do some decline benching...

    He's nowhere close to 350. That's more Bob Sapp territory. Wrestling weights are always inflated. His weight on Wiki says he's 285 at 6-2. Still big, but not unbelievable.

    Bobby Lashley was bigger. Plus, the WWE pays way more money, and they often turn their back on PED use.

    Simple answer:

    WWE have much less risk, much less intense and require much less skill. In some cases it brings more money. Even Dennis Rodman and Karl Malone could last in the WWE.

    At the same time, 'wrestlers' in the WWE take much, much more physical punishment than MMA fighters. They have to travel around the world and perform with crazy injuries on a nightly basis.

    In MMA, you train for months for a fight and, if you suffer an injury, the fight is postponed/canceled.

    In that respect, the WWE is much tougher.

    But, a lot of the guys in the WWE likely have no clue how to really fight. They are entertainers and there is nothing wrong with that. They are also allowed to take as much PEs as humanly possible, which helps them look like 'freaks' when they probably aren't natural athletic freaks.

    There is a lot more money for the top guys in WWE... However, if guys crave real competition without the grueling schedule of fake wrestling, they would be wise to try their hand at MMA.

    It is like comparing apples and oranges.

    very true. People completely underrate the physical strain/injuries that WWE guys go through. It really does take a lot of skill to do. Not the same type of skill as MMA but just as much skill to perform all that stuff

    People underrate just how much of a beating wrestlers take out there in companies like the WWE and such. You have to be physically strong of course...and your endurance has to be on par to perform a match...you have to not only look out for your own safety, but the safety of the person in the ring with you....the mats HURT too...its not like they're landing on a soft pillow...its literally like a board, with springs....you SPLAT on the mat....and it has some give to it...but essentially you do hit hard....and continuously....


    Im not saying they're the most hardcore on the planet...but these men ABUSE their bodies out there...it is NOT an easy busy by any stretch of the imagination.

    ...which is why they all end up becoming dependent on pain killers to ease their injuries and steroids to help their endurance. People think that fake wrestlers only use PEs to make themselves look huge... That is only part of it. The major benefit of steroids is that they take away the need for healing time that your muscles would normally need in between workouts/events.

    Btw, it is very obvious to me that Lesnar was on steroids during his stint in the WWE. He isn't nearly as cut now as he was in his WWE days. It is obvious... I don't even know why he is denying it.

    Hell yes. That man used to look like a monster....you could tell he was juicing just by looking at his damn NECK....at one point, he had no neck...it was ALL muscle.
