Just saw an ad for him for the next season of The Biggest Loser. 474lbs!
Interesting. Buster Douglas bloated up to over 400 lbs. when he stopped training.
Yea but to almost 500 lbs?!?
I think 280-290ish when he won the gold.
Remember how fat Matt Ghafari was for that 'fight' with Ogawa?

fat gene + rich guy + no reason or desire to trane = big fat fuck

That dude could've been something special in MMA. 
Beast!!! No pun intended
However he got as big as he was(shows pretaped), hes gonna fuckin win the show
Dead Roman - He was like 300 when he competed wasn't he?
Yes. It's the "large athlete" syndrome.
A lot of these big, beastly heavyweight athletes eat a ton. They get away with it as professional athletes because they train hard and they train often. The thing is though, when a lot of them hang up the gloves and call it quits, a lot of them keep on eating like they are world-class athletes, but they don't exercise much beyond maybe running a few times a week.

F&@king rhetorical questions, how do they work!?
Anyone that can live the wrestler lifestyle and still be a fatty is DOOMED once they stop training. Guys that could keep up their size all season usually had creeping slow metabolisms. They get fat if they eat a carrot w/o running 10 miles afterward. Rulon's in shape weight is still close to 300 lbs so I don't see him doing so hot on this show w/o just sucking weight that will come right back after the show. The winners on that show go from like 450 to 180 don't they?
A major life saving hero.

^EVILYOSHIDA swears to Pokemon that "fight" was real.
And this is despite the fact that Ogawa himself doesn't even claim that fight was real.
EVILYOSHIDA/Japanophiles = adorable
I didn't call it a "fight" because I was convinced it was a work, I called it a fight because Ghafari might have given the WORST performance I've ever seen in a fight.
Anyone have the video anymore? Did they announce his weight? Ghafari in the Olympics looked less in shape that Rulon, and he looked REALLY out of shape in the Ogawa fight.
It's going to be interesting to see exactly how bad Rulon looks...

I was shocked that a gold medalist wrestler would let himself go like that! Crazy I don't care how slow his metabolism is, as a competitor youd think he would keep in decent shape
