("World’s Strongest Man" vs. "World’s Softest, Hairiest Stomach.")
Insulting Quote of the Day comes to us courtesy of Mariusz Pudzianowski, who just signed a contract to fight Tim Sylvia at a May 21st event in Worcester, Massachusetts, which is being put on by a shadowy Korean promoter called "Moosin":
The five-time World’s Strongest Man winner also revealed that he should be fighting former Olympic judoka Pawel Nastula in September this year. “Listen, I’m not afraid of anyone. I have my next fight on May 7th and another two weeks later, if everything goes as planned I’ll face Pawel in September. I do it step by step.”
Step by step, huh? So to clarify, on the spectrum of MMA competition it goes random Polish first-timer, 1-0 fat guy, Tim Sylvia (after a two week layoff!), and finally, a 1-4 PRIDE veteran. This is the company you’re keeping, Tim. Part of us hopes Sylvia smashes Mariusz so he can regain some measure of self-respect. In the meantime, we’d be content if he just stopped harassing Andrei Arlovski‘s ex-girlfriend.
^^ That warning being: Tribal tattoos can make you look more muscular, especially if you already have a muscular physique (see left image). Just remember that too much of a good thing is not a good thing: The more ink you have, the more it hides the definition of your muscles. This is why inked bodybuilders often opt for small, simple looking tribal designs. Also, keep in mind that getting a tattoo will not magically transform fat into muscle. In other words, tattoos can enhance a muscular appearance, but cannot actually create one. When you combine an overdose on tribal tattoos with an already soft physique, the results can be tragic (see right image).
