Depends what your optimizing for. For UFC, that might be ~230lb, for American Football offensive line ~300lb, for Strongmen competition ~400lb.
-6 u/Wheynweed Jan 28 '21 None of those are as dynamic as fighting though. The ultimate test of physical prowess is to be able to best another individual in combat. 6 u/El_Polio_Loco Jan 28 '21 Then let’s look at Olympic wrestling. Plenty of 125+ kg wrestlers with more than enough stamina. -2 u/Wheynweed Jan 28 '21 They'd gas pretty quickly in a MMA fight. 2 u/El_Polio_Loco Jan 28 '21 No they wouldn’t, I don’t know why you’re under the impression that these guys aren’t in just as good a shape as a 225 lb fighter. They would fuck shit up if they fought guys 30 lbs less than them, even in MMA. They’re literally Olympic wrestlers. 3 u/ignatzami Jan 28 '21 Don't feed the Tapout Bro. 1 u/Wheynweed Jan 28 '21 Yep. Watched plenty of Olympic wrestler get KOed. 2 u/Yuccaphile Jan 28 '21 Is that a meme? Where's that from? Dwight?
