Forrest looked out of shape

mmafan988 · 05-15-2008, 11:18 AM

Lol dam did u guys notice how out of shape Forrest looked last night. He had his shirt off for a couple mins or so and dam he had a pretty big gut and his muscles didn't look no where near as tone as we are used to seeing him....

I guess that's part of mma though for big time fighters...to break for a few months and get out of shape, then get back into shape. Just wasn't expecting Forest to look like that.

Rampage has yet to take his shirt off, I bet he looks worse, lol. But dam, Forest looked rough too not shaving and shit. Don't get me wrong either way he's a great fighter, just thinkin aloud.

Forrest has always looked like that and he isn't fat, it's just bad posture.

Out of shape? Cuz he ain't dehydrated? He looked pretty fucking dangerous to me considering he's probably at heavyweight levels.

You probably think skinny ripped guys at 155 are 'fokking HUGE guy, man!'

Naw come fight day he looks jacked up man. He's very strong for his weight class, actually.

You look bigger the leaner you are. He's MONTHS out of a fight there and he himself has said he lumbers around pretty near 240 when he's not well into camp.

So you're talking about a guy pretty much 2" taller and 15-20# heavier than Mirko.

I thought he looked great...didn't look fat to me at all. He's a big dude...

He also might be trying to bulk up and put on as much muscle mass as possible before cutting down for Rampage fight due to rampages huge 205 physique, I would guess rapage to be 230-250 now, just looking at him. Many body builders do this in the offseason, they add alot of calories and bulk up to ultimately cut down and as a result put on a few lbs. lean muscle mass.

He is notorioulsly a workaholic in the gym, so I would be very surprised to think it wasnt completely intentional and strategic.

You probably didn't really notice it cuz there were only a couple of scense in there without his shirt...lol looked like he had a big gut...worse than Liddell's (not that that matters).

I guess he doesn't diet year round, only diets months out before fight time, which this was recording months ago, so that would explain it...

And you do know come fight time he regains most of his water weight, right?

Did you even read my post? Forrest always looks like that, even with a 6 pack, quite simply, it's just his posture...I would get pics to explain to you what i'm talking about but i really CBF doin that.

I agree...he looked the same to me as usual. I've always thought he looks too thin on weigh-in days.
