Who is the most 'jacked' fighter in the UFC?

Is Alistair Overeem the most 'jacked' fighter in the UFC?

Mixed martial arts (MMA), like any other sport, requires commitment and dedication. Aside from the time spent perfecting their respective craft, any athlete must also dedicate time to their body.

Not every mixed martial artist has the "Adonis" body type (here's looking at you, Roy Nelson), nor is it a pre-requisite, but most fighters dedicate the time to their physique as much as any other athlete as say, the NFL or NBA.

The toll training camps and the fight themselves have on the body is brutal and taxing to say the least. A good physique can help aleviate that toll and can often times equate to a strength advantage over the opposition; though it does not necessarily mean victories.

So, who is the most "jacked" fighter in the UFC?

According to the "Top 100 Most Jacked UFC/MMA Fighters" list created by muscleprodigy.com it's none other than "The Demolition Man," Alistair Overeem.

Standing at 6'5 and weighing in at 260 pounds, Overeem truly is a behemoth among men.

Once competing in the 205 pound division, Overeem has gained over 50 pounds of pure muscle mass over the years in order to compete with the big boys of the heavyweight division.

Aside from having good genetics and ingesting a heavy dosage of horse meat as a source of protein, Alistair has obviously put his time in at the gym -- as have the rest of the fighters who made the list.

Make the jump to see the rest of the top 10 most "jacked" fighters in the UFC.

you know what's actually kind of creepy?

Look under each arm at his “muscles” around the armpit area. They actually look like a half face on each side. Like he has an eye on each side, nose, and upper and lower lips. It looks like a soul trying to come out or something.

Can anyone else see what I mean?

I hope someone can… Cause readin that back, I sound kinda kooky…

The fucked up thing about Davis

Is that it looks like he has two tumors sticking out beneath his armpits, with it’s own tentacle (or crab leg) shaped rib muscles. Can anyone photoshop this? It’s freaky.

Plus it looks like he was the model for those Milli Vanilli suits with the large shoulder pads.

Sometimes he will need cardio to do that also TW

The "Prodigy" BJ Penn will be in the Philippines on November 30, 2011 at the Music Hall of the SM Mall of Asia. That will be good except if the mall administration decides to charge $5 to anyone who wants to see BJ. (just like what they did when GSP came).

There is no way I am going to pay $5 to see a pudgy, out-of-shape, retired waste of talent who is 1-3-1 in his past 5 fights.

Overeem did not put on no 50 lbs of muscle. That shit irks me. Overeem put on like 25 – 30 lbs of muscle over years. He was already in the 220s when he fought at Middleweight , he just cut down

by p123 on Nov 28, 2011 6:06 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

Came to post this

How is it that people who know how MMA works assume Overeem when fighting at 205 actually walked around at 205? Especially when every time he walked to the ring Bas Rutten would comment on how huge he was, how he cut a TON of weight and it was going to effect his conditioning.

Overeem has said he was ~230lbs when he was fighting at 205. He came in at 256 for his last fight. HOW IS IT POSSIBLE FOR A MAIN TO GAIN 30 POUNDS OVER SEVERAL YEARS?

Frank Mir gained 30 lbs in one fight camp , Overeem making those gains is totally possible , the right genetics , and strict diet.

20-25 lbs of muscle added to the frame of a 6’5 guy is not really a big deal at all realistically. Damn near any athletic build can support that.

Remember , Reem never used to touch weights at all.

I love how guys will cut weight and gain/lose 20 pounds within 1 day of the fight but guys on the internet who don’t lift anything heavier than a Coke can are baffled that a professional athlete with professional trainers and nutritionists could gain 20-30 pounds quickly.

by JasonHarris on Nov 29, 2011 12:46 AM EST up reply actions  

i agree with jason

people fail to ralize that “bulking” steroids aren’t even the type of steroids that an MMA fighter would do. guys don’t get popped for dianabol or decadurabolin.

Not really with the type of cardio and endurance training...

But I’m not gonna argue over a keyboard with u. If u wanna think reem is clean, then go ahead but just wanna say this… I trained with one of the head track coaches from penn state and he was an Olympic qualifier and he said that no world record since the late 60s ahd been set without the help of a “foreign substance”
