UFN 23/Fight for the Troops

[Mr. IWS]

Ill clean this shit up later.

[MMA_scientist]

MMA fighters I would like to look like:

1. Sarah Kauffman
. . . just off the top of my head.

Now you are just saying shit to try to get a reaction so you can call me a gay basher.

Seriously, that's your goal? To look like a woman... what am I supposed to say? sounds totally straight.

[Svino]

This thread brings the lulz.

but honestly, if we going full gay in this thread talking about who has the sexiest man physique, I personally prefer the BJ Penn or Shogun look. They look like they are in hape, but just from training.

I do like how it took MMA_scientist about three posts to go from calling people talking about guys' physiques gay to joining in.

[MMA_scientist]

^ shut up queer bait.

[Ludo]

Don't worry, Svino. He'll get what he deserves just like hilary swank in boys don't cry.

[MMA_scientist]

^ I don't watch gay porn so you'll have to fill me in on what I can expect.

Yeah, but Faber didn't sculpt that in the mirror... he got that build through good genetics (well at least partially good, he is like 5'4 so I wouldn't say he won the genetic lottery or anything) and wrestling and just trying to form usable, functional muscle. The reason I know this is because I have seen a picture of him when he was a freshman in college wrestling and he looked nearly the same. Also go watch any d1 college wrestling match, a lot of the guys have a similar build. Uriah is a little bulkier, but he doesn't look too much different than Mendez or Benevidez, he is just cutting more weight so his abs show more.

It doesn't matter how he got it . . . the point is that he's got it. Especially at FW he was thick as fuck, with good definition from top to bottom. A true bodybuilder's physique. Since you bring up Mendes and Benavidez, they also both look pretty good.

Besides, you think he doesn't bench? Or do curls? I bet he does.

[MMA_scientist]

^ Vi do bench and curls too... but I bet he doesn't look at his shape and worry if he looks too thick in one area and not in another... I bet he just tries to get stronger and leaner.

1. Not a homophobe. I am turned off more by the vanity of it all than the potential buttsex. I just find the all the shaping and tanning to be feminine. Since I am crass, I tend to call things that I find feminine "gay." But I got no problem with the real gayness.

Vanity is everywhere. If it's not dudes checking themselves out in the mirror, then it's in dudes thinking their BJJ is all that, or that they're awesome at Magic: The Gathering.

2. Women like Paul Walker, sure,he is also handsome and lean. But you know who they like more than Paul Walker? George Clooney. Ever see Clooney with his shirt off? Go down the list of lusted after male stars and you will see a lot more Johnny Depp and Jude Law than you will Paul Walker or Matthew McConaughey.

Johnny Depp? Okay. But I think the deal there is that the sheer force of his personality is so overpowering that women don't give a shit about anything else.

George Clooney? Maybe the old bitches think that, but not 25 year old hotties.

And I would beg to differ on Jude Law, too. I think that most women would go for McConaughey before they went for Jude.

It is a funny thing to me... because a lot of people use the excuse "for the ladies" which is fine. But I really think the ladies just like guys that are comfortable in their own skin. If you can't accept yourself, then really you are right, because IME women don't like that at all. Better to be fat and proud than shredded and concerned about it.

I agree regarding women being attracted to confidence. But there's a reason why women go "ooohhhh" whenever Brad Pitt or Ryan Reynolds takes his shirt off.

But really, I am just giving you shit, don't get pissed. If you want to body build, by all means, do some bodybuilding. My favorite hobby involves putting a man between my legs and trying to trap his head and arm in my crotch. So I really can't say say shit.

Thanks. I will do as I please.

Word.

BTW, awesome AV. We should start a new trend. First it was ninjas. Now it's old school WWF wrestlers.

Well symmetry IS important.

And I also think you apparently underestimate these guys. I've seen Paul Harris, Sherk, and Marcus Davis bust out straight bodybuilder poses at the weigh-ins. You don't think that Kongo ever flexes his shit in front of the mirror when he gets out of the shower, or that Faber throws up the bicep for the ladies when they start squeezing his arms? How about Akiyama and his shirtless photo shoots, or GSP and that gay calendar that he did that Serra was making fun of on TUF?

Granted, these guys have a primary goal is becoming better fighters, but you don't think they also get off on how awesome they look?

[poopoo333]

Lmao

[MMA_scientist]

^ I don't think you can use the bodybuilder poses as evidence of anything. Otherwise that means Nate Diaz is a body builder too. And Gonzaga... and everyone. Just something they do.

I am sure they are happy they look good, but that is a by-product of functionality. I want to look good too, but it is not the goal. Of course ego and vanity are everywhere, but for me bodybuilding is like glorified modeling... the whole goal is vanity.

whatever, to each his own. take a pic when you get tan and buff.

Fuck this. I'm off to watch Pumping Iron.
