Fighters With Noticeably Bad Posture

[CreativeTomato]

Let's just pretend that BJ Penn fight never happened.

BJ Penn fought recently? When??

Do you mean posture DURING a fight? Or everyday posture?

Mousassi has AWFUL posture in everyday life. A huge case of anterior pelvic tilt and kyphosis.

Conor McGregor also has awful posture, extremely internally rotated humeri, and some kyphosis (hunch-back posture).

if you look at most very quick boxers, youll see theyve got a tight chest and rotated humeri, i am starting to speculate it might actually help them in generating speed, almost like a stretch reflex

might be a slipper slope with causality correlation though.. just sometihng ive noticed

BJ Penn the last time he fought Edgar lol!!

Goes without saying but BJ Penn's stance in his last fight was just dreadful.

Then why say it?

Pat Healy

Carrying that head around will cause some back issues.

One thing I always notice with Jim Miller is how hunched his back is. I notice the same with Diego Sanchez. They look so unnatural and slow throwing strikes. Miller has found a way to make it work, but Diego looks like he's throwing punches under water most of the time. Anyone know why they look so hunched and examples of other fighters?

Mousasi has to be the worst.

Conor's posture is pretty shitty

Miller was actually countering pretty quick and with some power in the first before he got hurt. Not to mention, cowboy had a decent reach advantage.

I agree. The problem is that Cerrone has a head like a brick.

The problem is that Cerrone has a head like a brick.

Some kid on here a few weeks back described him as "chinny", and was actually being completely sincere and trying to defend his premise and shit too. Can you believe that? lol

Cerrone ate bombs from Melvin Guillard... nuff said...

Surprised that Wanderlei was not on the front page

 

[solarnoise]

Matt Brown for sure. When he fights he slouches like the Joker in The Dark Knight

 

[Kertol]

Hendo
Wand
Gegard

gomi's stance is super low

 

[KarateKickbox22]

Um, Tim Kennedy has the worst...it's not even close.

How did you get the dubs, man?

 

[KarateKickbox22]

This makes no sense.

He doesn't make sense very often at all.
