SIR.

I made a thread on this dude in 2014 asking for the UFC to pick him up:

Interesting.

 

[FlyingDeathKick]

Isn't he over 300lbs?

Isn't he over 300lbs?

Weighed in at 263 for his last fight, so should be okay.

Interesting. Would have loved to see him join the UFC a few years ago.

 

[xentreos]

Wow I can't believe he's at heavyweight.

He's not the goat but believe me when I say that dude is a fuckin PROBLEM.

 

[BenRichards]

He's pretty old anymore isn't he? I remember hearing about this guy in what feels like ages ago

 

[Raymundo Alvarado Guevara]

The fight is going to be in SUPER HW
(It is sarcasm)

 

[Pepy]

the most athletic superheavyweight in the world

This will be interesting. He is always putting on a show in his fights

 

[beastman]

Huggy Bear is very entertaining, hope he gets a couple fights.

 

[EndlessCritic]

Genuinely did not think he would ever end up in the UFC.

 

[MixMartialFarts]

Was hoping to see Mozharov he looked like an exciting addition what happened to him?

 

[Kaybee]

I saw him get starched by Nicholson years ago at a local joint. Seems he has gone on an undefeated run since then so good for him I guess

 

[Aranha21]

Rothwell easy

 

[norsuu]

263? wow...i remember barnett weighted over 150 kilograms

 

[VinceArch]

Oh man that's a big boi!

 

[thebesteva21]

I’m 5’9, couldn’t imagine weighing 260 holy smokes

10yrs too late but I'm weirdly looking forward to this now! It'll have a kind of freakshow vibe to it, haha.
