If you have 14 seconds google the Butterbean fight. I can't believe it was legal and I'm actually curious if it was sanctioned. He probably still has lasting effects from it

Jesus Christ that right hook destroyed him.

Butterbean was a legit boxer at super heavyweight. Don't let the body fool you. And yeah his punches come with a well known reputation

The idea of the shredded ripped strong guy is only a modern thing with supplements and HGH etc. All the old "strongmen" and even those that compete in those events today are just hulking monsters of fat/muscle.

holy poop

Why the (frank) did he get up? Why the (frank) did the ref let him?

Absolutely. Look at the Mountain when he is doing strongman vs now - almost looks like a bodybuilder at 300+ lbs.

Personally I know my lifts were way higher at 225 lbs than at sub 200 lbs and it wasn't even close. Weight moves weight

1-he got up maybe because of pride, or he was already concussed at that point and didn't really know what was going on

2-perhaps the ref was instructed to let the fight go on until Gunn was completely knocked out (kinda looks like it was the whole point of the thing)

yeah, when you're lean and ripped it usually equates to less endurance. if you look at some of those bodybuilding competitions sometimes there are guys that simply pass out. they may look strong but ironically they are at their weakest.

At that point, he was still able to fight.

I mean, he was in a fight where he shouldn't have been in the first place, but I don't think the ref had any reason to stop the fight at that point.

If he had been smart, he would have went down and stayed down asap.

Incredible stuff.

like there was any other possible outcome.

- BINGO!

it was 20 years ago, when we knew even less than we know today about concussions, so maybe they just thought "meh, Butterbean will knock his lights out and it'll be over, no big deal"...

Ripped Brad Pitt at like 150 lbs knocking guys out like it's fight club all over again

If #2 that's criminal

My right wrist is messed up and my left shoulder tends to dislocate itself.

I think my fictional boxing career is over.

Apparently when men tell a personal trainer about their dream body it's most frequently Pitt in fight club

Sadly no.

It just hurts like a mother(frank)er when it happens and I always pray to god I can pop it back in.

Last time it happened was last week, had my 4 year old daughter in my arms, tripped on a (frank)ing harmonica that the kids left in the goddamn stairs, started falling and turned on my shoulder so I wouldn't body slam the kid on the ground. *Pop*

I managed to not yell too loud because my girlfriend was in an important meeting with Danone about yogurt. Then semi jumped on it while laying on my back until it popped back in.

She heard me yell but still finished the meeting before checking on me.
