If Mariusz loses to this guy then I'll abandon all of my notions that sheer muscle mass and strength makes a big difference in a fight.

you seen bob sapp fight?

Bob Sapp isn't a World Strongman champ.

I expected more from someone who claims a decent boxing backround. Slow and punches mostly with his arms (power comes from the torso). He's very athletic and about the strongest guy you'll find but if he isn't training regularly in grappeling and MMA, he's strength may not transition over as well as many would expect.

Very slow. Don't they drug test in the MMA? How's he going to fight?

You, on the other hand, are pretty fast. What a fool.

he should work on his ground game. that's where a big strong guy has the biggest advantage.

never the less he has the most size and muscle mass in the org in which he fights yet is 0-4 this year...

He comes across as being no stranger to "grappling" with half naked dudes.

Strong don't mean chit when you are fighting off your back, especially when you have someone with a good mount. As opined by some, as long as he can close the distance and clinch he will do well. If he fights someone with good footwork, his career will be short lived. I hope his management keeps picking hand selected cans for him to fight, build his career, hopefully he acquires some skills, loses some mass and gets better.

Wish he had more hip in his punches, we will just have to see how it goes!

^ I second that! When is the fight and what channel is it on?

JasonH · « **Reply #39 on:** December 09, 2009, 06:01:40 AM »

Haha - this should be very interesting.

I hope Mariusz can take it all the way and one day fight Fedor - now that would be something.

I heard that he lost about 20 pounds for this upcoming fight.

Water or not it's 20 pounds and he doesn't have fat to lose anyway. He is very athletic. His bulk gives him that not-fully extended punch. His strength will be a factor somewhat.

Bob sapp had some winnings, specially 2 times over Ernesto Hoost, wich was (until last week) the only human to win 4 titles in K1, one of the best (if not the best) muay thai/kick boxer striker in the world...

tbombz · « **Reply #46 on:** December 09, 2009, 12:00:31 PM »

if he takes it seriously he will easily be one of the top fighters on the planet. he isnt a bodybuilder where you can write him off as all show and no go, this guy is pure functional strength. strongman shit is real world type of power. he will break some peoples skulls, literally.

He seriously injured someone after hitting them on his motorbike while drunk in Poland in 2000 just after competing in WSM 2000 . Spent 19 months in one of the toughest jail in Poland. This is why he didn't compete in 2001. His story is that he attacked a bullying Polish Mafia member but that is just a story as I was actually living and working in Poland at the time and it was big news.
