It's really hard to comprehend how strong he must have been at his peak. His power is something truly weird, considering how light he was.

@@kalle1482 that doesn't make much sense..John was as "amateur" as anyone else...he never trained much off the table like guys do today..and he wasn't on PEDs until he hit 40.. yet he was head and shoulders above most ppl for a long time..competing in multiple classes very often and winning while others who tried that usually didn't place in any category..John would have been special and dominant in today's era as well..there was nothing he lacked.. versatility, table IQ, skills, the ability to bulk up when required.. nothing

cool video. and he just drinks beer and is like 60. truly goated.

It had to be a great experience.

You probably just talked me into going to Orlando in August. He seems to be a great MAN. He is my favorite ATHLETE and I’m a few years older than him. Been a fan a long time.

It was, he's still at a level ill never get close to

I had the chance to train with him a few years ago and didn’t go. I had just competed in a tournament and was sore as hell. I didn’t want to pull the GOAT with a noodle arm. I would have skipped the tournament if I had prior knowledge he would be in town.

SUBSCRIBED 💪

Nice to hear. So I had the opportunity to zoom with him because I proposed to paint his portrait. We chatted for an hour. It was very easy communication. He ended up turning the offer down sadly, so when I met him in Istanbul I was a bit awkward, which made the meeting less fun. But I sat next to him for a bit. I just didn't ask him all the questions I wanted to ask so I am kicking myself. Anyways, I really hope he is a wall for Leonidas!

@@JasonPaull Yep. It was frustrating because I can really paint portraits. Check out my Christianiaportraits. leahrobb.com/wp22/christiania-portraits/ I haven't totally given up but will propose to open up the offer more widely and see if there are a number of possible subjects and if the could be crowd-funding from the community for such ideas. I need to find the right person so work with - perhaps Neil Pickup?

😊😊🙏😊😊

He’s probably still top ten at his size if he’s training and if he gets in top shape he’s easily top 5.

Do you by chance know if John is going to be at the tournament this Saturday the 13th taking place at the Rainbow Saloon?

Do you think John can beat Leonidas? It would be incredible to achieve it at 60 years old

@JasonPaull

25 күн бұрын

I dont think John can beat him in an endurance battle. I hate to bet against John...however, I don't think Leonidas is ready for John's hand and I think if John eins it'll be through dominant cupping and pronation quickly to not allow Leonidas to get into his strengths.

Also shows you how great Todd Hutchings is lately. Beating John, before John beat Voevoda. Also Todd beat Krasimir Kostadinov recently which John never beat in his life to my knowledge...
