What if Sean O'Malley gained 10 lbs of muscle?

[datpuz]

The dude has such impressive striking, but he's so fucking skinny... what do you think would happen if he put on 10 lbs of muscle and put some power into those strikes at featherweight?

 

[Fluffernutter]

He would fight at 145

 

[mb23100]

He'd weigh ten pounds more

 

[datpuz]

He'd weigh ten pounds more

Not necessarily. He could put on 10 lbs of muscle and 50 lbs of fat, for example.

He might reach Erik Silva prospect levels

 

[IloveTHIS]

Im sure he is going to fill out some and still fight at 135

 

[JayJayFrench]

He might reach Erik Silva prospect levels

Fuck Roger Huerta is looking good.

 

[Carvaso]

He’s be a white Yair.

 

[Post 2 Decision]

He looks like a stick-man

 

[Which Doctor]

Not necessarily. He could put on 10 lbs of muscle and 50 lbs of fat, for example.

Pretty sure that's 60 pounds.

 

[GtehMVP]

Fuck Roger Huerta is looking good.

It's all in the alpha nail

 

[bubbleboyjones]

His frame is too small for adding 10lbs of muscle. He might break his foot.

He'd probably lose his speed and precision

 

[Egészségére!]

135 + 10 =

Nothing. Strength is overrated. It's about endurance, technique, and fight IQ.

It's better to be flexible, thin, and have good movement.

Adding muscle mass requires too much time, and energy for such little payoff. You have to eat more, and even put on fat, and keep it on.

 

[hagestad]

that's real or someone is making fun of Eddie Brah idea?

 

[Patman]

The fuck? Holloway hits hard as hell and doesn't need much muscle mass to do it. This is not bodybuilding.

He's gotta be the skinniest dude in the UFC though... like, you can take anything too far. Max Holloway is one of the tallest featherweights and he's the same height as O'Malley.

Yeah and he's a featherweight and the same height as O'Malley...

 

[Seaside]

he would be better. being physically weaker than everyone else does not make you top dog anywhere in elite of division these days.
