Title: Branch Warren - hardest working bber out there
Post by: GroinkTropin on February 28, 2011, 01:04:07 AM
Branch is the harfest working bber out there now that Ronnie Coleman is gone...

Check out this fucking video, dayum! At least now we know how he got in such crazy shape. Busting his ass!

His rhythm on front presses is scary-sitting back with 315 and repping out what 19 reps? Then hitting the bar back PERFECTLY in rhythm like that is just insanely hard to do. I doubt anyone who hasn't been training a LONG time would have a clue. But it is pretty damn amazing. Then he hits a drop set after. Crazy! Dude gets mad respect from me.

can you imagine how crushed his ego was if he tried to grapple/fight a small 155 pounder in the ufc for example

I wonder if he would kill himself..

He'd have to survive first to kill himself after. He would probably vomit his heart once in armlock.

Im thinking Branch probably sees himself as the MAN, Heavy, and hunts shit with knifes and is super strong.
I dont think his ego coul handle getting beat by someone that just weighs 150...

Im not saying a fight to the death becayse ofc he would get killed, but just a fight

There is no fucking way any 155 pounder takes a chance with someone like Branch. It's funny how you talk about Branch's ego, when fighters are among the worst in the ego department in all of sports. Yes, someone can have a bigger ego than a hockey player, and that is a fighter.

Fighters probably have the least egos of any athletes.. And from personal experience though its not alot I agree, When poeple Know they can kick most peoples asses they dont have to Prove anything ......they know. And thats leads to being secure in yourself. Ofc there has to be some assholes out there though.

And branch would get killed, the question is how would he handle it

Once again the resident midget with his brilliant and logical comparisons ::)

I wonder how crushed the ego of a UFC fighter was if he tried to win a tennis match against Federer or sing on stage against bryan Adams. ::)

you're stupid for that comparison dumbo lol

The thing is a ufc fighter doesnt think he can beat Federer in Tennis, But I beat Branch thinks he can beat a 155 pounder in fighting.

I can show you a video of branch claiming that training like him would make you look like him

...is that good enough?  ;D

I just like my odds assuming it, Im not 100% certian though But

Short which he compensates with being on the juice since age 19 which proves he at least was very insecure add a HUGE car to that and the fact that he loves shooting animals that are 400 yards away I like my chances!

Everyone has a chance with everyone. Fighters know this very well. You just don't want to play with a person like Branch. And besides, fighting with someone 300 lbs is weird territory for most 150 lbs. You don't see that often. Just too fucking risky.

Im talking about a Normal fight in the gym/cage/octagon whatever controlled... Which ofc everyone knows a trained fighter would beat a BB (there are still a few poeple out there that still doesnt get it though lol), but I wonder if his ego would survive it.

It was just a funny thought, apparently people seem sensitive

And why did Swede chose Branch to pick on? Pretty personal shit making claims about someones character judging by what you see them do on Muscular Development videos.

When I am saying close to Ronnie, I mean HE KICKS ASS IN THE FUCKING GYM!!!

Obviously their body's are totally different. However, I was always a HUGE fan of Ronnie because he KICKED ASS in the gym. Pop in The Unbelievable, watch him hit whatever bodypart I was training that day, get motivated and kick some ass. Used to be Blood and Guts but that movie is sadly lacking. Ronnie was just unreal, loud as fuck, blowing out insane weights and LOVING IT. You can't watch one of Ronnies tapes and not want to train. Branch is similar, guy makes me want to kick ass. Kai makes me want to punch him or the closest person to me. Wolf or Heath make put me to sleep as does Jay. Ronnie was truly one of a kind but Branch is from a similar mold and the guy gets mad respect from me.

Congrats on your Arnold victory Branch!!!! (As we know pros read the forums).

That was exactly what I meant, which was why I put a vid of Branch training up and not him posing. Thought others would get that? I guess I should have been more clear.

His arm in that shot looks like something that worked hard all its life for diminishing returns. If his arm could talk, it would say please lighten up on the weight and slow the rep pace down PLEASE, your killing me! And if you keep it up, I'm going to induce the final stage Palumboism on you.

And is about as relevant. ....Branch is a professional bodybuilder....not a fighter. And I don't really know anything about the guys true personality  (about as much as You "know" about MMA fighters) ......but I don't recall him ever saying he was a tough guy.


As someone else said.....being "tough" isn't the end all and be all to the VAST majority of people in this world.

 We don't walk around worrying about whether we can beat up a total stranger walking down the street.  Funny thing is you are one of the tiniest people here and most getbiggers can probably whip your ass and then toss you like a football into a garbage can
