Also tells you something about his early fights. If he's 214 as a forward in Rugby League (guessing he was a prop) and is doing mma matches on the side, then there is no way he's cutting weight like mad in fights. He must have been fighting middle or light heavyweights as a 5'6 guy and winning. No wonder he's so strong when he drops to featherweight to hold guys like Jose Aldo to the cage and have him look like he can't do anything.

I don't think people realize how insane this is, he is like 5'6 height, and was at 214. He fought at 185, which is insane, for anyone who hasn't trained MMA, depending on your body type since some people bulk up easier than others, it is very difficult to be that height and put on that amount of mass and KEEP IT while training MMA, because there is so much cardio involved in everything we do during our training, we burn tons of calories. So it is extremely interesting to me how he managed to be 5'6 and that stay at that weight, if he was 5'10 or taller, then it would make sense, since the taller you are the more weight you can generally hold since you have a bigger body.
@kkech1
2 жыл бұрын
185 doesn't sound too insane to me. I did a summer of MMA style training and stayed around that weight at 5ft9, while limiting my calories. Was my first year really doing any sport and stayed at something under a comfy 18% bodyfat. 214 at that height seems nuts and hard to believe he was natural sprinting all day with that mass. But then again he looks over 20% bodyfat in those times so that seems plausible. I'm from the same country his dad comes from and can say that Balkan dudes can get thick. Must be the diet idk *shrug*

AV played Rugby League in a semi pro league. He was a long ,long,way from top grade here. Top grade players in his position are as much as 120 kg or 264 pounds.& 6f 2 to 6 4 He held down his spot by being really busy & really tough.& having what we call “ a big motor” . Aerobic capacity the determination to be a part of every play.He has a work ethic that’s really at the core of what he is. It’s going to take a hell of a fighter to beat him.

There has been a serious increase in traumatic head injury in rugby too. What they did was change the regulations. Now if you you receive any type of impact to the head, no matter how small, you are taken out of the game for an HIA (head injury assessment) and a temporary substitute can be put on in ur place. If you fail you aren't allowed back on, if you are knocked out there is no HIA you are just substituted. This takes the decision out of the player's hands. 90% of players would usually play on otherwise, its sorta seen as a weakness is you don't. They also changed some of the rules making any blow to the head in a tackle/ruck, any tackle about shoulder height and any tackle where the player lands on their head a red card. It was rugby union that did this initially but I think its the same in league now too

Your so right Joe football players are wreckeless due to the padding they have so they do more extreme tackling with no technique. Rugby players have rules and technique you have to follow. For example to make a tackle in rugby you learn what side to tackle with depending on how the opponent is running. You also go through feet positions and head positions so you don’t get knocked out.

There’s plenty of technique in NFL tackling. Some examples would be.. to prevent extra yards being gained on a run you hit them low and wrap up both legs when you make the tackle. To force a fumble you can make your helmet contact the football when you put a hit on the runner to pop it out of their arms. When you come from behind or the side of the runner you can tackle by the waist and simultaneously use a hand to attempt to strip the football before they are down. When a receiver attempts to catch a pass the cornerbacks making reads and trying to time a solid hit right as it touches their hands so you can force the incomplete pass. Too early on that and you get pass interference which marks the ball where it would have been caught so it’s risky but effective when done right. Can’t target the head during a tackle or that’s a 15 yard penalty and potential ejection from the game depending the severity or repeat offense. When you’re a 180 lbs player having to tackle 250+ lbs fullbacks running full speed at you like a truck you need technique because the physics are not in your favor. As you can see it seems we have some rules and techniques involved with NFL tackling.

Also tells you something about his early fights. If he's 214 as a forward in Rugby League (guessing he was a prop) and is doing mma matches on the side, then there is no way he's cutting weight like mad in fights. He must have been fighting middle or light heavyweights as a 5'6 guy and winning. No wonder he's so strong when he drops to featherweight to hold guys like Jose Aldo to the cage and have him look like he can't do anything.

I don't think people realize how insane this is, he is like 5'6 height, and was at 214. He fought at 185, which is insane, for anyone who hasn't trained MMA, depending on your body type since some people bulk up easier than others, it is very difficult to be that height and put on that amount of mass and KEEP IT while training MMA, because there is so much cardio involved in everything we do during our training, we burn tons of calories. So it is extremely interesting to me how he managed to be 5'6 and that stay at that weight, if he was 5'10 or taller, then it would make sense, since the taller you are the more weight you can generally hold since you have a bigger body.

185 doesn't sound too insane to me. I did a summer of MMA style training and stayed around that weight at 5ft9, while limiting my calories. Was my first year really doing any sport and stayed at something under a comfy 18% bodyfat. 214 at that height seems nuts and hard to believe he was natural sprinting all day with that mass. But then again he looks over 20% bodyfat in those times so that seems plausible. I'm from the same country his dad comes from and can say that Balkan dudes can get thick. Must be the diet idk *shrug*

There has been a serious increase in traumatic head injury in rugby too. What they did was change the regulations. Now if you you receive any type of impact to the head, no matter how small, you are taken out of the game for an HIA (head injury assessment) and a temporary substitute can be put on in ur place. If you fail you aren't allowed back on, if you are knocked out there is no HIA you are just substituted. This takes the decision out of the player's hands. 90% of players would usually play on otherwise, its sorta seen as a weakness is you don't. They also changed some of the rules making any blow to the head in a tackle/ruck, any tackle about shoulder height and any tackle where the player lands on their head a red card. It was rugby union that did this initially but I think its the same in league now too

Your so right Joe football players are wreckeless due to the padding they have so they do more extreme tackling with no technique. Rugby players have rules and technique you have to follow. For example to make a tackle in rugby you learn what side to tackle with depending on how the opponent is running. You also go through feet positions and head positions so you don’t get knocked out.

There’s plenty of technique in NFL tackling. Some examples would be.. to prevent extra yards being gained on a run you hit them low and wrap up both legs when you make the tackle. To force a fumble you can make your helmet contact the football when you put a hit on the runner to pop it out of their arms. When you come from behind or the side of the runner you can tackle by the waist and simultaneously use a hand to attempt to strip the football before they are down. When a receiver attempts to catch a pass the cornerbacks making reads and trying to time a solid hit right as it touches their hands so you can force the incomplete pass. Too early on that and you get pass interference which marks the ball where it would have been caught so it’s risky but effective when done right. Can’t target the head during a tackle or that’s a 15 yard penalty and potential ejection from the game depending the severity or repeat offense. When you’re a 180 lbs player having to tackle 250+ lbs fullbacks running full speed at you like a truck you need technique because the physics are not in your favor. As you can see it seems we have some rules and techniques involved with NFL tackling.

I live in a city with a lot of Aussie/South African/Brits, and over here (at least in the amateur league) you get a lot of shorter guys playing rugby built exactly like Volkanovski. These guys have a distinct advantage in some regards because their center of gravity is lower making them WAY harder to tackle, and they're super quick.

Same with wrestling, and to some extent, MMA. It's very hard to take down a short person, Volk has long arms too, so he has a reach advantage usually.

Mark Deeming Depends where you’re from, here in Hull rugby means league, you have to specify union if that’s what you’re talking about, not that you would - start talking about rugby union at work here is a good way of ensuring no one will sit near you at lunch time.

Howling Mad Murdock yeah but in Australia we tend to just call Rugby League “footy/football” like this guy does here. So you just use “League” as a shorthand on occasion, but you generally don’t call union “football” here

Joe is probably going to savagely beat Young Jamie within an inch of his life for this error. I feel bad.

@@David-li2qj Union isn't the same, and it's objectively worse than rugby league despite it being more popular worldwide. League is trying to grow into new markets, but since the two sports are similar it's hard to get new fans to differentiate between the two. If people start to watch more league then I think the majority of them will become fans.
