How would Johnny Hendricks do at heavyweight?

Like This..But With Big Ass Dudes

In a all seriousness, Johnny has a pretty obvious eating disorder. The man needs help. You know what I'm saying?

Bigger Riggs would get DESTROYED easily by most HW

Funny how Hendricks struggled to make weight a handful of times, get constantly berated over it but missing by what seems like nothing compared to Dern and Till.

He missed against Woodley, Gastelum and Magny a stretch of 3 out of 4 fights. What makes it worse is that he moved up to 185 and missed weight. Hendricks at 170, in shape, was one of the very best:

Soft at 185, very average:

The strange thing is that he's pretty much got the same build as DC

Not even close...dc is very thick in the chest and shoulders...while big rigg is only thick in the gut. as bad as big rigg did at middleweight, multiply that by 10 and that's how bad he'd do at heavyweight...forget that, he'd be 10x worse at LHW...heavyweight, he'd get murdered.

Sadly...I have to agree. The drop off in performance after testing began was hard to watch.

That also accounts for his inability to make weight...roids make it much easier...it keeps you leaner, while keeping your muscle as you lose weight...without the juice, he couldn't rely on that anymore...and his poor diet, just kept him fat.
