Since when is 180 big at 5’7?

Just look at the difference in their forearms on the last picture. Messi has very little muscle mass overall.
their chest arms and shoulders will show you where the 20% higher body weight is. People are delusional trying to justify their builds though noone accuesed them. They are insecure.
 
It is not just about height vs weight. It is also about BMI as it relates to load on heart. Even when I was doing heavy bodybuilding before pandemic (6 times a week with 1 hour sessions for all except sundays when I did 2 hours), I put on a solid 15 lbs of lean muscle mass going from 170 lbs to 185 lbs with a less than 15% fat and a 31 inch waist. At ny heaviest, I saw 190 lbs, but most of the time I saw 185 lbs. I was eating about 3000 - 3500 calories a day of very clean protein from chicken, breast, carbs from sweet potatoes and I would only have 2 cheat meals per week. I was measured 5'9.5" back in my 20s. Might have shrunk a bit now and might be around 5'8.5" or 5'9".

So, while I was very proud of my 45 inch chest with thick pecs, 17 inch arms, 13 inch forearms, 31 inch waist even at 185 lbs, I realized after a while, your heart is meant to handle a certain amount of weight at a certain height. So while I was always brushing off BMI, the heart cannot tell a difference between fat or muscle. In fact, heart works harder to pump blood into muscles. Therefore, if you are heavy for the height, it is going to make the heart work a lot harder and over time could result in enlargement of the heart.


All in all, after the pandemic started, I lost all of the lean muscle mass in weeks. Got down to 163 - 164 lbs and became extremely lean. Just do cardio now and always remain in a caloric deficit (consume about 2000 calories a day and burn around 3000 - 3500 calories). All of my numbers are in the normal range including cholestrol, triglycerides, sugars, LDL, HDL etc. Case in point, one always has to think about the cardio aspect and how much load the weight is putting on the heart for long term sustainability. I might go back to doing bodybuilding, but will definitely stay away from going up to 185 - 190 lbs even with the extremely lean muscle mass because of the aforementioned reasons.
 
I'm sorry but 210 and 5' 7" in shape is non-proportional like a dwarf. I am tending to think all of these short heights and high weights claimed in this thread are overweight Sherbros.

I am 5"10 and 191 lbs and fat bitch doctor didnt even looked at me shirtless, yet she wrote in my medical exam that i should loose weight, but where? I was building thoose sherdog legs and arms forever!!!
 
Watch Topuria's fights, he doesn't look big at all. If he's really 180 or whatever he has super dense bones or something. It just doesn't add up.


We don't have to guess, he fought under CSAC which weighs everyone on fight day and publicly publishes the data.

Ilia was 167.2lbs in cage fighting Volk, and that was with only 24 hours re-hydration after a week of weight cutting and however many weeks in camp dieting.

It seems trivial for him to gain another 10lbs outside of camp, considering he's ripped with abs in the cage at 167lbs. His story adds up, even if he's rounding up a few pounds which is normal in conversation.
 
You mean there are outliers? Come on, that can't be true.
dude why are you jusitfying your own genetics. Ok so you are built narrow, and ? Why make numbers as some standard when we all are different. So I am morbidly obese 6 foot 253 ? Ok sure. We are all built different. Look Max is long 5´11 or what he is fighting at 145. Look Nabil at One Fc 6´4 Muay Tha champ at like 135 ? Than Mark Hunt K1 HW champ and like 5´10.

Do you need to put others down to justify your particular build ? You are narrow, narrow :)

Averages are a hard concept for some people, but they exist nonetheless. Your wife doesn't seem to think I'm narrow. :)
 
As a guy who walks around 210 at 5’7.. under 25% body fat.. I’m kinda taken back by this forums strange obsession with Ilia’s weight. Same with Reddit to be fair

We can all agree the most average sized man is 180 20% bodyfat

Illia is only 2 inches shorter then the average man, and denser, stronger and wider

but it begs the question - are you guys skinny or something? 180 is a pretty meager weight for anyone with a decent bone structure

Lol ..

R u one of those im not fat... im big boned?

Over 200 and under 6'0 is heavy lol ..

Body fat percentage plays a huge factor in that as well .

If over 200lbs you better be under 15% hell 12% body fat..

Or your out of shape...or chubby fit...

Jokes on you I'm single.

Averages. So what are your dimensions ?

There is a concept of food and muslce mass.
 
There is a reason you are single- girls don't like fatties.
Fatties take your girl cause you aren't 6'4 220 10% bf and are illegally posting on sherdog

Translation: OP is short. OP is fat. OP's favorite fighter is Deronn Winn.

Source? Oh right..

You said a search engine. Any random one will do, I guess?

Muscle weighs the same as fat (a pound of fat, is the same weight as a pound of muscle).. That’s common sense that I hope we all understand. It’s just that fat takes up more space than muscle.

That guy did NOT lose 16 pounds of fat that turned into muscle.

I call Bullshit.
You "call bullshit" on what? That some random guy started working out and got in shape? Which one do you think is "bullshit", the 150 pic or the 134 pic?

The average height for world cup players is 6' and the average weight is 163 for midfielders and 172 for defenders.

Some of you guys sound like you've never been in shape before and have no reference what a person would weigh without carrying a bunch of excess fat.

Post a pic
 
I saw Topuria listed from 5'6 to 5'8, I have no idea how tall he is. He's 167lbs fight night, so I have no trouble believing he walks around close to 180, that's just 5 kg more.

I guess he doesn't pass the eye test for 180, if he looked like Vovchanchyn nobody would talk about it.
Top is rumored to be one of the better height cutters.

210 lbs at 5' 7, lol unless you have titanium bones that makes you weight that much, you're fat.

I can see Ilia walk around 180 lbs but that's gotta be him outta shape.
 
No real sherdogger walks at 5'7, that's a sherbum. Sherbros packing heat 57cm and 180cm girth in the right places.
