Why Don't More Fighters Do What Ubereem Did?

[jeff7b9]

Overeem is 6'4-6'5 and was having serious issues with cutting to 205, causing him to gas out badly.

People act like he put on 60 pounds of muscle. The guy was ripped with barely any fat and probably 230ish. Then he filled out and beefed up but it was over the course of a few years.

205 was the wrong weight class for him and the cut wasnt healthy. Similar to rumble, he came into his own when he stopped putting his body through the torture of the extreme weight cut.

I truly believe that the best fighters are at LHW, cause they are faster and more technical than HW fighters.
Plus, they have enough weight to not be muscled around and shut down by heavier guys.

315 lb homer. What a monster

lmao. two division champion, flyweight and heavyweight.

He needs to get mad to be Heavyweight, though.

I'm still trying to figure out the context of the original vid. For some reason I can't stop laughing at it.

One of the most ridiculous threads ever.

Now after all that imagination try to imagine also how long your account will last.

P.S. 8/10, would read again

Imagine a strict spinach and horse meat diet, daily sessions of Gamma radiation therapy and then after a few years MM coming back as the Incredible Hulk.

You mean the incredible UberMouse right?

 

[Redhawks100]

Let's face it. The best fighter in the world is the best heavyweight in the world. All these guys are claiming they want to be the best then they fight at like 170 lbs.

Imagine GSP using his few years off to pull an Ubereem, come back and be HW champ. Why not?

Imagine BJ coming back looking like Jeff Monson and taking the HW belt.

Imagine uber-Anderson coming in to claim his throne as the real GOAT.

Imagine Fedor without a size disadvantage.

Overeem proved that it can be done.

But Overeem hasn't proven to be the best so....

lol yeah context or no context it is one of the funniest gifs ever. There is also one with this mixes in with mark Wahlberg gif and the good the bad the ugly stare gif. So wtf lol funny!

 

[NoContest]

How has the horse diet worked for Overeem? He never won UFC gold and gets knocked out left and right. If he wins the title now, it'll be the definition of a pyrrhic victory.

Found it for you. Pretty funny shit.

 

[Turkleton]

Overeem was always a big lhw and was slowly killing his body by cutting down to 205

so he was just like "fuck it" and instead started slowly killing his body by taking lots of steroids

Imo

Econoreem > Ubereeem

This includes their mindset as well.

The numbers don't really support this. Ubereem was undefeated for 3 years in over 10 fights.
Econoreem was destroyed three times in his first four fights. And it's not like he suddenly had a jump in competition when he became Econoreem.

 

[Uber_Noober]

Um.... angles.. lighting....

Beat me to it.

 

[ortizgnp]

Why don't more MMA fighters do what Usain Bolt did?

Usain Bolt trained hard in 100m and broke the world record, he makes 33 million a year. If only MMA fighters would take up running and break the world record, they'd make tens of millions a year and retire and live like a king within 2-3 years.

Econoreeem is undefeated.

You're thinking of Tranistionalreem (or Transreem) when he was coming of the drug testing and losing his muscles.

It seems like many of the people who start threads are the more, uh, "creative" Sherdoggers.

People once thought of Greg Jackson like that.
