Fighters who still "lived the life"..

Eder Jofre has that famous video of him destroying the bag with combos at an advanced age.

The documentary 'Joe, Tommorrow' shows Joe Tatsuyoshi out training his pro boxer sons despite being twice their age.

 

Hamed ? He couldn't make Cruiser !

 

Jack "Kid" Berg skipped 20 minutes every day in his late seventies. Brian London never drank or smoked and was running at least 2 miles a day until a few weeks before his death.

 

Haven't seen him in years, are u saying he's the size of a cruiserweight 2day lol?

 

Yeah, Hamed is chunky now.

 

Is he? I heard he looked nothing like Hercules anymore.

 

I saw a recent(ish) interview of him on YouTube that was wishing the last year and a half or so and he looked good. Interviewer even commented that he looked in shape.

 

He look like he's about 250lbs in recent pics. Totally unrecognizable.

 

For Hamed, you open both doors Flash !

 

That’s shocking considering all the haggis and deep fried mars bars they’re bound to share

 

You bet. This is from 2018. You sometimes see elite athletes who reached fitness levels that we’ll never know go to pot…badly. Perhaps due in part to the trappings but also maybe also due to an accumulated aversion to any type of exercise after years of spartan training. This man used to fight at 126 lbs? He’s just 5’ 4 1/2” so hard to gage but I’d guess at least 210 lb or more probably.

Based on his Superstars performances in the masters division, Joe Frazier performed at least as well in the weightlifting event as an older man as he had during his prime. Maybe he used weights to keep in trim as he aged, or maybe he stayed in shape in other ways.

 

Strength is the one easy thing to keep into old age, assuming you keep up with it.

 

Yep.
