Johnnie Morant was one of the biggest dudes of his time. He was one of the first guys to step on stage nearly 300lbs, and that was 15 years ago (even though it was for McMahons organization)...
-
this guy looks pretty crazy, how tall was he?
-
I'm not sure, but I want to say 5'11"- 6'0". His son was recently drafted very high in the NFL and he is 6'4".
-
wow
any back shots
-
i was talking to johnny afew months back at a mma event in jersey,he got on the scale and it tipped to 355 and he wasnt fat,he gave me a 2 second ab shot and even though he wasnt near contest shape he was still tight.he said hes training at the ymca these days and wants to compete again in 2006.hes a super cool guy
-
I believe he was 5'11" he was supposed to be the next Haney , I think he competed at 260 in the IFBB , I'm not sure how much he competed at in the WBF .

haha that's what i was going to say, i didn't realize those were used for anything other than the klan.

No GH belly either. Amazing structure.
-
I was in Vegas the year he won the North Americans and turned pro.
He DID have a GH gut, just not to the same degree as the guys of today. I can clearly remember a photo shoot he did by the pool and the fact that when he relaxed his abdomen he looked pregnant even though he was shredded. That was my first real-life viewing of a GH gut.
That said, he had an awesome physique and was HUGE. As someone else mentioned he still trains and looks quite large in a recent photo I saw of him somewhere.

"the old days"
-
You're 6'1 right? That helps to narrow down Johnnie's height.
6 ft 1 and a half "..to be technical
-
For tall guy he had huge leg's.could have been top guy in early nineties if he didn't jump ship.
-

Seen him in person about 15yrs ago. Had the biggest and thickest pecs I have ever seen, and I've seen many pros in person before.

I think MMI reported a few years back that Johnnie Morant got popped for dealing some substances.
