Wll he's a former 2 or 3 time strongman champ, I cant remember how many. Well anyways, he's been fighting in MMA now for a couple of years and its a cant miss event everytime for obvious reasons.

Who else but Butterbean, cmon, he's the big man's 21st century yardstick. If you cant beat him then you suck. Well here's how he looks in a fight. Scary funny? Im not sure how to describe it

 

BoB Sapp vs Mariusz Pudzianowski. . hilarious, both well over the 265 SuperHeavy weight limit.

I'm not sure these guys has as many roids as you think.  I'm sure they use some sort of enhancements just like all NFL players do (don't kid yourself).  The difference is these guys come from an Icelandic culture where EVERYONE wants to be a strong man competitor.   Just watch the VICE documentary on it on youtube.  You can go into an electronic store and there is a normal, strongman there working.  Despite only like 500k population or something, a huge chunk of these people are amazingly strong.  When you've been training and doing things like this from a very young age, you are going to be a beast.   I also think they are just large people because of their genes, so you have that too.   Tough man competitions require some speed, agility, and some pretty good footwork or else you would hurt yourself bad, very often.   These guys pull big rig trucks and things, often.   Maybe they wouldn't be the best offensive lineman from the outside, but on the inside or even DL, I could see them being pretty good.

 

The big thing everyone is forgetting though is you have to be smart to be on the offensive line, or at least to a point.  I believe the IQ's of offensive lineman are higher than any other position.  You have to have the mix of str/athleticism with some smarts to be able to learn when and what to do on the line too.

Genes do play a huge role in all. I'm scottish, with about 25% OP genes. Thejohnson side of my family was unreal, living til the 90s with great health.plus I have size on both sides.

The viking genes are the best currently, which is what these man beast are made form. I'm done some training with these type men(even johnny perry old bros) 100% of them where on all sorts of stuff, animalroids, igf, hgh and HIGH doses too. Id would have done similar stuff, but my doctor told me the risk due to the bad heart genes in 75% of my pool. I still rember a few young guys training with us. Clean never done the stuff, start the cycles and BOOM!!!! Increase 100+ lbs bench within two weeks, no more waking up sore and able to training much longer than me. And we are talking about men that where already super strong and big framed. People take roids cause they work and all of these already huge/strong take them too.

Brock Lesnar couldnt handle pain. Thats why he failed. People underestimated how effective guys like some of the Gracies, and the Shamrock brothers were just because they would be determined to take more punishment than you while still dishing it out. Shamrock used to load up on pain pills late in his career to compensate for his ability to deal with it. In the end he stopped beating people and starting getting mauled for 5 rounds in a pain pill induced drunken stupor.
