Dave Batista WWE Star 1st MMA fight !!!

Please...FFS...stop it already with the freakshow... !

 

Dana will be there to scout him.

 

Anyone want to bet on how bad his Chin is? Hope it is better than Lesnar's...

 

Wow all the beefcakes are tryin their hand at MMA. Wonder how The Animal will look without the drugs

Both Booker T and Chris Jericho have already kicked his ass

 

Didn't he lose like 75 lbs? I'm pretty sure I had read he would compete at like 185.

 

Crikey. Thats insane if true

 

its about time , I think more of those wraslers should sign up .

 

Batista was around the 260270 mark when he was in the WWE. I have a very hard time believing he's remotely close to that kind of weight. You got a source?

 

That's going to be his billed weight. The WWE always inflate stats. He's close to 6ft 4/5 and around 260 when he was on gear. He's been off it for a while. So i wouldn't be surprised if he was around the 230 mark.

 

He lost a ton of weight immediately after leaving WWE but he's put it all (and possibly more) back on for a film.

I mean I have no interest in the fight but I don't feel any negativity about this. The guy does love the sport and has been trying BJJ with Cesar Gracie for ages (even runs an affiliated gym). He wants to try fighting - more power to him.

Its also worth remembering that if Strikeforce hadn't been bought by the UFC we'd almost certainly had seen him fight for them last year. He even bitched about the UFC stopping his dream.

 

Agreed. Daves been trying to do this for years. I reckon one and done for him as his not young. But fare play to him lets see him achieve his dream.
