He also looked real thick and dense for the Marquez press conferences as well. He's not incredibly ripped, his muscles have just become bigger and more rounded. That kind of look can be achieved with some weight training and proper supplementation. I guess since he's at 147 now he figures he can bulk up a bit which he probably couldn't do at the lower weight divisions.
he looks incredibly ripped to me. maybe bradley is the only one that looks better. pbf's midsection is bb ripped. in fact, i cant think of another fighter in the last 10 years that looks as good as pbf in some of those photos.
Pbf abs are always ripped.. but for total physique there's quite a few fighters that match himin the last decade imo. Pac Judah Bradley Pascal Roy jones Jeff lacey To name a few.
