Was prime Overeem the greatest physical specimen to ever grace the octagon?

[Gracious Warrior]

Prime Overeem bullies the beast Brock Lesnar.

 

[VaselineSweep]

 

[SouthpawSouthernFist]

Brock Lesnar with intact colon would give him a better fight.

 

[Chagaev]

Not with that chin.

 

[Gracious Warrior]

Not with that chin.

His chin went to shit after he popped. During his Ubereem horsemeat stage his chin held up great.

Close to it Ubereem was 6"4, (maybe 6"3 & 3/4), 263lbs to 273lbs, with a small skull but 80 inch reach)

Ngannou is close to it (big hands, huge skull, assumingly good chin, 83.5 inch reach, wide shoulders, long thick legs, explosive, 275lbs, he could be taller though he is only 6"4)

Someone built similar in physique but who has a larger skull (can better absorb blows) and has a strong chin and is 6"6 with 86 inch reach would be a better option


Basically JJ Watt (6"5 &1/2, 290lbs 86 inch reach, or Rob Gronkowski (6"6 & 1/2, 270lbs, 86 inch each) large skulls, fast, explosive are ideal.

You would want to be taller than the average HW who is 6"2 to 6"4 so being 6"6 would do that. You also would want a longer reach than the HW average of (78 inches to 81 inches)

Only Ubereem and this physical masterpiece can elicit salacious responses from the ring girls

 

[Vegeta]

Ubereem was the perfect fighter.

 

[13Seconds]

Kind of yeah. Sad that we never got to see Ubereem fight the best of the best. How did Strikeforce fail to make that Fedor fight happen?

 

[Chagaev]

He covered well and had some favorable matchups, but the weakness was there.

Got rocked when Spong touched him with a jab in 2010, but as I said covered well.

 

[FKAri]

Athletically or aesthetically?

 

[Schaub]

Only Ubereem and this physical masterpiece can elicit salacious responses from the ring girls

 

[Shaddows]

I much prefer this kind of body...

but taste is highly personal, so you do you, I will continue to do me

 

[bad mojo]

Don't know if this counts as a showing of physicality, but Whittaker fighting Romero for 24 minutes with a smashed fist, getting hit and rocked badly more than once and still being able to push through...a lot of it is mental toughness, but you gotta be a beast for your body not to give up. If we're talking superhero physique, Overeem is probably number one, but I doubt his magnificent body would survive something similar.

Nonsensical fetish for physical stats.

Strikeforce didn't fail. Fedor's courage did.

Ducked him multiple times.

No he didn't- but you did duck defending your claims multiple times, little cowardly liar.
