that because he fought guys that didnt know wtf they were doing lol. Todays top level fighting is Alot different.
what do you mean special treatment? they get the exact same tratment? you compete with poeple your won weightclass and then you figure out whos the strongest guy is..
you dont think its more impressive for someone to lift 3x therr bw then 1.5x?
Think of it this way, it would be like saying the only players allowed to hit each other on a football field have to be the same weight.....and there are guys that are 350 plus hitting guys who are 185 on a regular basis. I just find it funny that in a handful of sports size is taken into account, while not in others.
And I'm just more impressed by the overall amount of weight than the ratio bullshit.
