Does Cormier count as an A-level athlete?

Instead he was the HW and LHW champ?

For more detail, DC wrestled at 184lb in college and 96kg (~212lbs) in worlds/Olympics.

He’s steadily grown in weight but not height. :joy:

So in 2000 he wrestled at 184 and retired Aug 2020 with last weighing in at 236 pound (guarantee he isn’t under 260 right now). That’s 52 pounds if you go by last weigh ins but I’d say he is about 80 heavier then in 2000.
In 2012 or 13 I had my last fight and weighed in at 136 (walk around 55ish). Lost and got depressed and became an addict and 8 months later I weighed 210 pounds and looked like DC. You don’t get fatter like he did while your working out like an “A level Athlete”.
I know first hand what your capable of 40 pounds lighter. Sayin this doesn’t shit on his accomplishments and as a former wrestler I looked up to him coming up and a guy in the sport you want your kid to use as a role model.

After that being said; “Eat your Popeyes and enjoy retirement DC. You fucking deserve it.”
