Does Gegard Mousasi have scoliosis?

[matt35750]

I noticed for awhile now that he looks like he has a slight hunch back, I remember it being very visible during his strikeforce fights. My dad has scoliosis and he has that look to his back too.

 

[clutchit]

either scoliosis or kyphosis (hump back)

 

[MagnusGOAT]

Or just bad posture?

 

[bellend]

Alvarez has the same type of body.

 

[matt35750]

either scoliosis or kyphosis (hump back)

How is he able to train and lift weights with eithor of those conditions? My dads back hurts if he is to active.

Just looks like his fighting stance to me, perhaps a relic of his boxing background.

Or just bad posture?

Gotta be this, no way the commission will clear him to fight with scoliosis.

 

[HuntersCreed]

No.

 

[Slobodan]

Lol no.

 

[anthony stark]

just poor posture

 

[Joe Buck]

boxing background.

 

[MagnusGOAT]

boxing background.

Lol boxers aren't trained to lean and bend, they're trained to bend at the knees. He must have had an awful trainer.

 

[Miiiiiiighty]

imo internal rotators induced kyphosis , which is pretty common in combat sports due to front delt/lats development and guard/defensive posture chin tucked + hands high in front of the face

 

[Jarvan]

scoliosis is not kyphosis

Just looks like his fighting stance to me, perhaps a relic of his boxing background.

It's not his fighting stance, I first noticed it when he was walking around the strikeforce cage before a fight and he still had a hunch back.

 

[seeyouaunty]

I've got no idea but his posture looks really terrible in the cage/ring

 

[zackryder]

i think he just has bad posture

Scoliosis definitely doesn't impede your ability to lift weight, unless you allow it to.

I think George Sots had the most noticeable case. Most people have it in some form or another it just may not be as reconizable .

 

[Nova Union]

Nope. Just bad posture/genetics
