There’s no shortage of athletes from all sorts of different sports training MMA these days, with some even preparing or pretending to prepare for actual fights. Jose Canseco competed in the DREAM Super Hulk tournament in Japan, James ‘Lights Out’ Toney has talked about fighting in the UFC and Strikeforce recently signed former NFL great Herschel Walker. One name that may have escaped the notice of US fans is making a big splash in Eastern Europe: Mariusz Pudzianowski.
Mariusz Pudzianowski is basically the Tiger Woods of the ‘World’s Strongest Man’ competition, winning the event five times–more than anyone else in history. If you’re over the age of 30, you no doubt remember when the ‘World’s Strongest Man’ was a staple of ESPN’s dark ages. Strong dudes from a variety of disciplines would carry refrigerators on their back, throw beer kegs over walls or drag railroad box cars around a parking lot. Pro wrestling geeks will remember that Ken Patera competed in the event a few times. It was a fairly impressive display of strength, of course, but didn’t really catch on among American sports fans. ESPN long ago quit covering the event, and considering the fact that they cover poker, spelling bees and eating contests that relegated the ‘World’s Strongest Man’ competition to the same level of prestige as a Tijuana donkey show.
While Americans quit caring about the event long ago, the Eastern Europeans have made it their own. 7 of the last 8 winners (even from online betting point of view) have been from Eastern Europe, and its apparently a big deal in Poland where Pudzianowski is a legit star. He’s competed on the Polish version of ‘Dancing With The Stars’, formed a rock band called the Pudzian Band known for their hit single “Zdobyć świat”. He also did a 19 month stint in the ‘grey bar motel’, which he suggests was a frame up at the behest of a local mob boss. Most recently, he’s decided to become a professional MMA fighter.
Pudzianowski, who has become known to US MMA fans as ‘Puddin’, won his fighting debut in impressive fashion defeating ‘pro boxer’ Marcin Najim by TKO via soccer kicks on a card in Poland. Najim was also making his MMA debut, but calling him a ‘pro boxer’ is a bit of a stretch. Our friends at the MMA website The Savage Science came up with this background on Najim:
Najman was a pro boxer with a record of 11-4 but I did a little research and those 11 wins came against opponents with a combined record of 41-207. He beat a guy with a 5-45 career record in his last bout, and before that fought guys with career records of 3-18 and 2-33.
So the guy that ‘Puddin’ Pudzianowski beat wasn’t exactly one of the Klitschko Brothers. Najman probably couldn’t beat a Klitschko sister. Shortly after Pudzianowski’s fight, talk turned to his next opponent. There was talk of a matchup against Aleksander Emelianenko, brother of the baddest man on the planet and a pretty tough dude himself if somewhat of an underachiever. Then again, his brother is Fedor making him MMA’s version of baseball’s Mike Maddux who was a fair to middling pitcher that had to live in the shadow of his brother, Greg, who happened to be one of the best right handers in history. Another challenger had no MMA experience but had been in plenty of fights–former NHL goon enforcer Krzysztof Oliwa. Oliwa goes 6’5″ 245 and was one of the most frightening enforcers in recent NHL history. He’s also borderline insane and legitimately likes to hurt people, including his girlfriend. Oliwa is currently awaiting trial for beating her with a hockey stick and faces his own stint in prison.
The guys at The Savage Science thought this was a pretty good matchup for Pudzianowski’s second fight and said as much in a blog post. Their thinking was that it was a matchup that would draw fans in Poland between two guys with limited MMA experience. Unfortunately, the Polish MMA fanbase reacted to their suggestion that Pudzianowski was at a level where he should be fighting retired hockey players as if the SavSci staff had collectively shat on the country’s flag. If you head over to the post we’ve linked you can read the comments for yourself but the basic take from “Puddin’s” fans is that he’s ready to be considered among the world’s top heavyweight MMA fighters and Brock Lesnar, Shane Carwin and Fedor Emelianenko are all cowering in fear of their hero.
Pudzianowski is a powerful guy to be sure. And he’s got a great catch phrase: “Ta ręka niesie za sobą śmierć, a tej drugiej sam się boję” which translates to “This hand brings death, but the other one even I am afraid of.” Unfortunately, that won’t be enough for him to beat any legitimate MMA fighter in the world let alone a monster like Fedor or Lesnar who’d likely break his arm off and beat him with the bloody stump. As something of a MMA expert, my advice to Pudzianowski is this: enjoy being a big deal in Poland and keep beating up tomato can boxers and making bank. Don’t let your fans go writing checks for you that your body can’t cash. You’re better off not fighting legit heavyweights and you have no business in a ring or cage with Fedor or Brock Lesnar without a weapon. Even that might not help.

James Toney Thinks Joe Rogan Is a Clown
I agree he is not ready yet to face top mma fighters, but this guy got some potential. He strength is much greater then Lesner, he is also very athletic. His got some boxing and karate backround. And if you start in MMA you not gonna start fighting top competition, you need pick up some experience by beating up guys like Najman and go up the ladder.What he needs is probably some BJJ and some wrestling and experience in the cage. My prediction is: he is going to make to the top with smart managment.
Okay…. too bad you dont have what it takes to tell Pudzian to his face that he has no business in the ring. He can do whatever he wants cuz he does have potential and its his damn life. Who is anyone to talk shit about someone else when all theyre doing is sitting on their asses in front of a comp their whole lives talking shit criticizing others… instead of being jealous why dont you be happy for the guy, hes done more and seen more in his life than you have most likely and he did this through hard work. So he wants to explore into the mma world, well thats good for him, hes not one dimensional and only focusing on a single aspect in his life. He wanted to fight so why are you bringing him down… ohh no his polish fans are saying he can do well and they want him to fight the best already… okay so a bunch of kids online upset you because of their happiness and that they found someone, a countryman, to look up to from a country that doesnt have much to begin with. I see more people talking shit about him than people cheering him on. If he fails in the future, at least he tried unlike other people, and if he succeeds, well I guess youre just gonna find someone else to talk crap about.
He’ll do well given his strength. But he’s nowhere hear the top echelons of MMA.
Youtube is crawling with guys with impressive pecs, delts, and bi’s with oozing veins and vicious staredowns getting in the ring and getting smashed and looking utterly confused by MMA technicians.
That’s not the point–I’m a MMA journalist. I’m not trying to pick a fight with the guy. My gripe is with his fans that think he’s ready to jump in the cage with Fedor Emelianenko based on a dominant victory over a hand picked tomato can. And I’d definitely tell him to his face that he’s not ready to take on a significantly higher level of competition at this point in his career. I hope whomever is managing his career will do the same thing.
Obviously strength is an asset, but there’s not a lot of guys who come into the sport from a non-fighting background that do well. There’s a big difference between the functional strength from, say, wrestling that guys like Lesnar and Bobby Lashley have and weightlifting and..uh…whatever it is that Pudzianowski does. The only guy I can think of off the top of my head whose primary background is in anything remotely similar is Phil Baroni, who was a bodybuilder but even he had an amateur boxing background. Without a serious competitive fighting/martial arts/wrestling/etc background 32 is kind of old to be learning on the job.
This is really exciting. As the article notes Mariusz does come from a striking background to some extent. But I don’t think his repeated domination in nearly all WSM events year after year is not a background at all analagous with Phil Baroni’s body building background. Nor could conclusions be drawn about Mariusz’s mma prospects from the fates of youtubes many “guys with impressive pecs, delts, and bi’s with oozing veins and vicious staredowns” who’ve maybe not done so hot in mma. The WSM competitions are also crawling with huge ripped guys -the strongest men in the world- and Mariusz ussually lays waste to them in every event. If he can clean up his technique and focus the explosiveness and power he shows in the above video, and he has a decent chin I think he’ll may well put on some unforgettable performances against the heavyweight elite.
To compare Mariusz’s strongman background to Baroni’s Bodybuilding background is absurd. I understand Mariusz may look like a bodybuilder, but he is not. This guy is a serious strength athlete, just search some videos on youtube and see what this guy is capable of. I do not think he is going to be a MMA champ, because the biggest question is could he pass a drug test. World strongest man events are not testing for roids.
I have to agree with many of these comments. That ANYONE has no business in a ring or cage with whomever is just plain silly. For sure, he’d lose if he fought a top HW tomorrow, but who’s to say he won’t sign with a top training team and become a serious force in a few years?
I know it’s cool to try to bash other athletes because so many MMA fans have little man’s syndrome after Lesnar basically walked through the UFC, but Pudzianowski can make it to the top if he really wants it and puts his time and effort into it.
Finally, the guy above me nailed it. There’s a MASSIVE difference between training for strength and training to look pretty. Pudzian’s bodybuilder physique is simply a byproduct of his power and cardio training, not the goal of it.
Good comments, fellas.
Not Najim but Najman.
The fight in itself it pretty funny. It can be best summed up with:
http://i50.tinypic.com/34he4wx.jpg
Mariusz Pudzianowski is a powerhouse!
Well you don’t watch ESPN because they play episodes of the World’s Strongest man contests every week. He’s very fast and extremely strong. There’s no way Brock would be able to lay on him and beat him up. And from the looks of the fight you have posted he seems extremely aggressive even after being hit. Not like bob sapp.
I think this is awesome I can’t wait to see him fight in america. I can’t wait to see someone try an arm bar or a submission move on him. I think he’ll be one badass fighter.
hmm.. a giant oaf with speed and strength. won’t be winning fights in the UFC unless he can land punches. throwing punches for dear life will only land you luck shots.
Sir Writer,
I might have missed it. Could you point to me where Pudzianowski says he can beat Fedor or Brock Lesnar? Are you really giving fighting advice and criticizing the man based on comments you saw on a online forum?
“You’re better off not fighting legit heavyweights and you have no business in a ring or cage with Fedor or Brock Lesnar without a weapon. Even that might not help.”
Go to a Yankee sports bar ( for those of you who don’t know, the Yankee and Red Sock teams are major rivals ), listen to the fans bad mouth their rivals and then blame those remarks on the team, no the fans. While this is far from perfect, I hope it gets my point across. Don’t give advice in a instigating manner to Pudzianowski based on comments he hasn’t made. Write a real story about how many online fans don’t seem to realize that he still needs to prove him self before he can be compared to such greats as Fedor. That seems to be the real issue. This article does not seem to be very good sports commentary. Did you sir run in by an editor by chance? I hope I’m not coming off as condescending and that you respond to my comments.
While I don’t expect Sporstuntapped to be a shining beacon of journalism or commentary I at least hope the editorials are useful and/or insightful.
Kind of a bad attitude, actually… Pudzianowski did nothing to deserve this kind of verbal trashing. He’s not just another run-of-the-mill ego trying to make it in MMA either. This guy is the real deal in terms of being a world class athlete. If others can come from professional wrestling backgrounds (even with amateur wrestling before that), boxing backgrounds, and others and be considered for real then WTF not the all time world’s strongest man legend?
This guy is explosive and from what I’ve seen looks to have fantastic cardio and stamina to go along with his raw power. Throw in some martial arts background and the desire to put everything he’s capable of, both mentally and physically, into being a true MMA threat and I’d guess you may just be selling him WAY short…
Time will tell, and the drug testing issue may end up being an issue, but the way you crapped all over the guy just because of his background was way off base. What would have been far more entertaining, and far less like likely to make you look like a jerk, is if you couched the article in a manner that touted the guy’s amazing historical accomplishments, insane physical prowess, and obvious mental strengths… Then you could have questioned his future success in good faith without looking like you were spitting on him from 5 stories up… Whether he’ll ever be an MMA champion or even top contender is neither here nor there. The dude deserves big props for what he’s done, and he could truly be a serious threat to anyone in MMA before all is said and done…
As the other commenter pointed out, you are dead wrong about ESPN having stopped carrying the WSM competition. Geez, you could at least do a little fact checking before spouting this kind of fork-tongued drivel…
Pudzianowski hasn’t said such (that I’m aware of) but if you’d checked the YouTube comments on the video I linked to and the comments on the article I linked to you would have seen that he’s already got a legion of fanboys who are ready to throw him in against Fedor, Lesnar and who knows who else.

“There’s a big difference between the functional strength from, say, wrestling that guys like Lesnar and Bobby Lashley have and weightlifting and..uh…whatever it is that Pudzianowski does”
Glisan maybe you would be well advised to actually do a bit of research on what is actually involved in strongman competitions, strongman is probably the ultimate test of functional strength – they literally are the strongest men in the world. Your attempt (in the comments section) to compare bodybuilding to strongman as though they are similar or the same highlights how ignorant you really are when it comes to sport. The only similarities between strongmen and bodybuilders is that they they are big and train with weights, I can name dozens of sports whose competitors fit that criteria. Pudzianowski would be (is) a hell of a lot stronger and more powerful than someone like Lesnar or Bobby Lashley and you’d be a fool to try to argue otherwise. Furthermore, Pudzianowski has power-to-weight, he was completely dominant during his time competing in strongman yet was also one of the smallest competitors – probably about 20-50 pounds lighter than most of the competition. Bear in mind also that while he was competing Pudzianowski’s greatest strength was actually considered to be his cardiovascular fitness and conditioning.
As for the drug test concerns, strongmen are drug tested, in 2004 Pudzianowski was actually disqualified after failing a drugs test (but seeing as he’s had no problems since then you can give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is clean now).
You may be right to say that Pudzanowski isn’t going to be a world champion MMA fighter or anything like that Gilsan but the way you attempt to belittle Pudzanowki’s past achievements, your attempts to belittle the sport of strongman itself (believe it or not it actually has a very strong following in America – nearly a third of the finalists last year were American), and the general tone of your article just makes you sound like a sad sad little man. What’s the matter Gilsan? Did some Polish man bone your girlfriend when your were younger or something? You come across as sounding like a bit of a dumbass to be honest.
Pudzianowski isn’t just “a powerful guy to be sure”, he is literally among the world’s strongest men (both pound for pound, and compared to the others who outweigh him). Literally. That means he is FAR stronger than Brock, or any other fighter. Furthermore, judging from your article, you apparently haven’t seen a strongman competition. Their strength and power is far more functional than you would believe (they’re not just lifting weights statically).
Whether this equates to strength in the octagon remains to be seen…but you are not qualified to say it won’t (I am not qualified to say it will, either, but I don’t make such a claim, whereas you do). With the right team behind him, I don’t think you are in any position to say how far he could go (again, I don’t think anyone is in such a position. It’s an unknown quantity).
Also…who the hell refers to Pudzianowski as “Puddin”? I’ve never seen him referred to as such, ever. The closest I’ve seen is him being referred to as “Pudzin”. It sounds like something you’ve made up to poke fun at him, tbh.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I respect yours (the author) and everybody elses (regardless as to whether I agree/disagree with them). The tone of your writing is pretty disrespectful though, and has somewhat detracted from the article.
I would’ve liked to have seen a more reasoned argument from you (I am interested as to why you think Pudzianowski would not be successful. I’m sure you have very good points to express, many of which I know I would agree with). Hopefully you can provide this in a future piece of writing.
Respectfully yours,
Some guy on the internet
To end my rambling…whether or not he succeeds, it will be very entertaining to watch.
Sorry mate but your writing is very lacklustre. If you’re going to try and write ‘properly’ then it’s ‘cheques’ yeah?
All I say is this: where was Brock Lesnar before he started MMA? He competed in fairytale MMA for a bit and before that was a decent amateur wrestler..
Pudzianowski won The World’s Strongest Man five times (physical advantage discounted) and is a fourth dan (yes my friend, the same level GSP is at) in Kykoushin Karate (full contact karate, understand? Not fairytale wrestling).
So if Lesnar can do it, Pudzianowski, a world class performance athlete who obviously has the work ethic to train and learn, would become a god.
So give the guy a chance, before pretending you know that much about MMA yeah?
P.S. – Carwin isn’t even in the top three heavyweights in the world – he’s only beaten Gonzaga – I’d consider some Black Dragon fighters if I were you. Chow.
Wow, I think a lot of people are reading this article wrong.
He’s not belitting Mariusz as much as you guys think.
He’s saying his FANS are already essentially calling him the best fighter ever and that that statement is premature. You see that all the time and it’s really annoying to be honest. A guy with potential with a dominating win over some random person suddenly becomes “the best guy ever”.
MMA is fraught with people like that. Anytime any heavy weight wins handily it’s always “Fedor is next and he’ll beat Fedor easy!”. And it’s annoying because these are pretty much untested fighters and one win over a nobody and suddenly he’s better than someone who has handily beaten EVERY competitor thrown at him (and no, these people were NOT nobodies). If I remember correctly after Tim Sylvia won some match he was calling out Fedor and there were legions of fans screaming that Sylvia was better than Fedor cuz he won the UFC belt. Well, we know how that turned out.
I think the point of the article is fans have gotta stop pulling that crap out. Once the fighter has good legit wins under his belt, then you can call him a contender. But it’s silly otherwise.
Pudianowski definitely has potential to be awesome in MMA. I mean anyone that’s seen him in WSM competitions knows he’s a bad ass. But no one knows how far he is now MMA wise. He’s not proven enough to be placed on the same level as current champions. How is he on the ground? How is he against a good kick boxer? How’s his wrestling?
While I can’t say for the rest of the people here I did get the writers point. That is, a lot of his fans on youtube are saying he is already the best but he needs to prove himself before he is the “best”. It’s just the writer didn’t articulate well and instead insulted Pud. based on online comments.
“You’re better off not fighting legit heavyweights and you have no business in a ring or cage with Fedor or Brock Lesnar without a weapon. Even that might not help.”
“that won’t be enough for him to beat any legitimate MMA fighter in the world let alone a monster like Fedor or Lesnar who’d likely break his arm off and beat him with the bloody stump. As something of a MMA expert, my advice to Pudzianowski is this: enjoy being a big deal in Poland and keep beating up tomato can boxers and making bank.”
Now he could have done that for a few reasons.
a) He didn’t think much about what he wrote and it came out wrong. (That’s being generous)
b) He insulted Pud. because he wanted people to come to his article and make comments about how he is wrong. Any publicity is good publicity?(That’s being cynical)
c) A bit of both (realistic)
d) I don’t know (Also a possibility)
The only thing I can say is write an insulting article about his fanboys not somone who isn’t even involved in the argument.
HAHAHAHA wow, first of all he will never fight in the US because they test for steroids and also the HW limit is 265. Second to call him quick or fast or athletic is a joke. Just watch the fight look how lumbering and awkward he is compared to guys like brock of fedor. I do agree he has the choice to do what he wants and make money how he wants but let’s not get it twisted he will NEVER be an elite fighter!
[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us ’0 which is not a hashcash value.
Yo, just found your site on bing. You have a bunch of awesome posts
Ok, Truth, obviously you didn’t do your research. Just like Lesnar, pudzian weighs 310 pounds of pure muscle, when he came into weigh-ins during his fight, he weighed in at 276lbs, that’s just 12 pounds off the HW limit, so he could easily make weight and go up in weight come fight day. Secondly, You obviously don’t know anything about pudzianowski to say anything let alone your trolling against him. Aside from Lesnars dry humping when he lays on someone, he’s as flexible as a log in standup. Pudzian went into an adrenaline fueled rage when he fought, but good coaching will bring him into focus. I’m sure people like you give him reason to work freakishly hard at mma like he does WSM to prove all doubters wrong and shut your mouth, lest you’re a troll, which it seems like you are. Fedor on the other hand is as slick as they come and has mastered his technique so he doesn’t factor into this equation.
Time will tell! From what I’ve seen, Pud is an amazing athlete: Strong, agile, quick. I would not want to get in the ring with him, especially if he has martial arts training. With some practice, he’ll beat the tar out of most guys. Not sure he’ll ever be at the top of the sport, but a lot of that has to do with his goals.
He’s obviously driven and can do a lot with his talent.
dear david
I have to say you are a t”w”a”t and a troll too, to call yourself an MMA journalist is a insult to journalism, you did no research and cached up on the word count by writing insults and bullshit. Dominator (that is his nick mate) can lift any heavy weight MMA fighter with one hand… you understand that ONE HAND hes training regime is really similar to what Fedor does he might not have much training with all that brasillian gay hugging on the floor but trying to put an arm bar on someone that grabs 500 pound weight and jumps up a set of stairs couple of hundred times a day is… problematic. If he wins his next fight which is with a sumo/wrestler I think he will owe Silva`s ass in the US fight easily.
I corrected your many mispellings….riddle me this: how many weightlifer/strongman types have ever had any kind of success in MMA and/or boxing? You can count them on one hand and have fingers left over. Strength is an asset, but its no substitute for fighting ability. At this point any top 100 heavyweight would destroy ‘Puddin’.
[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us ’0 which is not a hashcash value.
Without getting into any pointless,no-win net. battles i don’t really think the author of the above article mentioned that pudz actually has 7 years competitive boxing experience (polish national league)as well as the life long practice of karate (Kyokushin) (4kyu). and as a street enforcer in poland…i know karate guys dont get a lot of respect from mma people which is probably justified in most peoples opinions but if youve ever tried to fight a massively strong incredibly well conditioned guy that can punch you really should know that youve got your hands full man!!(no disrespect but you probably hav’nt) I would suggest if his chins good he’ll go far also never forget the football maxim of “physical superiority cancels out all theory” ……and he certainly is physically superior,so dont be an idiot and “no class” him
I’ve read several conflicting accounts of the extent of Pudzianowski’s boxing background. Personally, I have no issue with the guy giving the sport a shot–one of the fascinating things about MMA is the many different backgrounds its competitors come from. And in a street fight I’ll take a tough guy with strength and power, some boxing training and ‘real world’ fighting experience over a trained martial artist any day of the week.
The only real issue I’ve had is the over the top suggestions from some of his fans that he could jump in and dominate the Fedors, Lesnars and Overeems of the world right now. I am aware that I’m making a lot of the same arguments about Pudzianowski that were made about Brock Lesnar when he started training for MMA. And I was in the same basic position then that you are now, as I was big on Lesnar’s prospects as a fighter and kept trying to remind people that his size, strength and athleticism combined with his legit amateur wrestling background were no joke.
Time will tell and it’ll be interesting to watch.
[WORDPRESS HASHCASH] The poster sent us ’0 which is not a hashcash value.
the sport was created relatively recently and one of its advantages is that it allows people from different backgrounds to tests their skills against one another. Since sports like wresting, boxing, judo are not going to disappear in a flash, it is going to be so for a time to come. Aside from strictly professional mma fighters there will be someone like pudz crashing the party now and then. i understand that mma fan-base and mostly mma professionals are not very happy to see outsiders crashing in, especially if these outsiders are as foreboding as pudz is. the writer of this message is a twat, no doubt about that, he would be better off pursuing some other interest than mma. talk can everyone. time will tell. i don’t think that a human strength nowadays can stop pudz from getting to the top. his two next fights are up and coming. pudz is the guy who talks little and does a lot and that what gonna happen.
i repeat again. one of the primary ambitions of martial arts was to confront fighters from different backgrounds. if some mma employees don’t like it now, they should create a new sport, specifying that someone with no history can not enter the sport. then, they will have nothing to worry about and can sleep tight with their pussies unscathed.
Interesting is that although you have been corrected so many times to not use “puddin” you still with the stubbornness of an ox do so… I really think that like some mentioned before you have a grudge because some polish dude shagged your girlfriend or you are just a puny troll that likes to be annoying because every type of publicity is good publicity… and listing boxers and mma`fighters is like compering apples to oranges… stupid, Im a brawler I took on some way huge guys on the street just by being nasty and knowing where to punch but in a ring most of them would owe me because of there are rules… i guess if you are a fat sad Davida (i will misspell you name from now on… guess why) you might think that strength rules on the street… it might but much less then in the ring where you cant punch in the wind pipe or rip somebodies earlobe off or traditionally headbutt the motha, and other such tricks… HENCE your theory and yourself are officially owned and you should look for another vocation.
‘Puddin’ is his nickname that’s sweeping America….’Puddinmania’ if you will…
David i think you mean Pudzian
No, ‘Puddin’ is his nickname that’s sweeping America.
I think he’d have a hard time making weight in the UFC. The guy is about 300lb of muscle. I don’t think that he’d be able to get down to 265 without losing all the power that gives him his edge.
Good point…its different for guys like Lesnar and Carwin who are massive but are familiar with the concept of cutting weight from their wrestling days. That’s a tough thing to do at age 33 if you’ve never done it before.
Pudzian will make “Puddin” in his oponents pants.
I think your a little confused on the difference between Lesnar and Carwin cutting weight and Pudzian cutting weight. Pudzian is used to a very strict diet and workout/cardio plan! Have you ever seen his daily routine on an everyday basis? Obviously not! If he has to cut weight he’ll know the quickest, fastest way to do so…change of diet and workout routine is nothing, and from what I understand he has already altered that.
Im not really sure what you’ve been watching on ESPN, but they have played Worlds Strongest Man for years! It’s actually very big here as well. Pudzian has always been the smallest to compete in his days in strongman, and has come out on top more than anyone ever has been capable of doing. Dont bash a mans achievments, that’ll make you a fag! And as far as just lifting weights..strongmen dont train with your regular dumbells and plates, they train with raw weight. I mean kegs, tractor tires, or anything you could think of thats in outstanding amout of weight. This sets Pudzian away from other MMA fighters.
Another thing to add to physique types between lets say Lesner and Pudzian. Pudzian is close to 300 lbs at around 8% body fat and Lesner is around 300 at around 20% body fat. By saying this, Pudzian has a much more solid physique which will make him harder to knock down.
I think with the proper training and experience he can recieve from some good managing, he will be a great fighter! Maybe not jump to the top all at once, I think he has the heart to make there someday!
