Who was physically stronger: Hendricks or Hughes?

[froggyluv]

Hughes is real strength. The kind you only get by working on the farm and hanging out behind the barn.

Ive heard the "Farm Boy Strength" all my life but lemme tell ya something: Barns Ruin Families !!

I think Hughes, could keep it up for more years and keep his strength longer during fights. Hendricks edges the power and short term strength.

Hendricks had punching power. That's not strength.

Lol
Hendricks owned GSP in clinch for 25 min,but its not strength

Thank you for proving my point.

Hendricks when he was on all the good stuff back then.

Prime Johny was roided out of his mind and more dominant in that window

This. It depends on whether we are talking about natural strength or not.

Hughes consistently demonstrated a stronger game.

Hendricks was hit or miss to the point it almost looked like 2 different peeps.

Well, his "misses" suspiciously increased big time post-USADA. Lost like 6 out of 7 if you include the bare-knuckle match he lost to a gay porn star at the end.

Thank you for proving my point.

What point is that exactly

 

[powerbottom5000]

Considering Hughes was about 40 pounds lighter, him.

 

[Mammothman]

Grappling wise Hugues, punching power Hendricks.

 

[Harlekin]

Considering Hughes was about 40 pounds lighter, him.

Considering that, Hendricks
You were talking p4p

Strength is kind of a P4P-adherent attribute. 360-pound squat ain't a world record but it would be if you weighed 60 pounds lol

It's like saying Marcin Tybura hits harder than Ilia Topuria or something.
