“He’s a Human Panther”: Joe Rogan Was Left Stunned over Freaking Body Features of 6′3″ Wrestling Giant Born to Normal 5′7″ Parents

Some names command respect and fear whenever uttered. Their laurels speak volumes of skill, and their intimidating personality adds to the mystery. Critics and fans alike bow to the greatness of these bodybuilding legends who have carved their names in the pages of history. Earlier, Joe Rogan named a great wrestler who was, in equal measure, frightening and spectacular. 

YouTube Channel Sigma Life posted a clip where the famous UFC commentator names the “scariest wrestler of all time.” He took the name of Aleksandr Karelin, who was freakishly huge, while his parents had average height.  

Aleksandr Karelin bewilders Joe Rogan with his size

Fans hail Karelin as the finest Greco-Roman wrestler who won three gold medals at the Olympics. Moreover, he remained unbeatable for most of his career. Speaking of the gargantuan wrestler, Rogan exclaimed, “They used to call him the experiment because his parents were like normal size like kind of tiny like five seven and he’s a panther-like a human Panther six foot two-three hundred pounds.” The podcast then details Karelin’s fighting skills, famous for throwing his opponent to the ground in one smack.  

The TV presenter stated, “He would just hoist them up in the air and look at that picture….. he moved like a cat. He had crazy flexibility, like ridiculous flexibility and mobility.” Despite sporting a hulk-like figure, the iconic sportsperson focused on improving his agility and movement. Expressing his awe at the bendability of the titan, Rogan added, “That guy was a freak.” The superheavyweight champion lost his Gold in the 2000 Olympics. Once, reminiscing about his training style, the distinguished athlete had a strange confession. 

Karelin reveals his training style

After leaving the sport with a silver medal, Karelin now belongs to the political circle in Russia. He has become a symbol of Russian pride. The ‘Experiment’ once said, “No one can completely believe that I am natural. The most important drug is to train like a madman–really like a madman. The people who accuse me are those who have never trained once in their life like I train every day of my life.”

His opponents were more afraid of the famous reverse body lift that Karelin had mastered than of losing the bout. The Greco-Roman style wrestling hero has achieved a mythical status in popularity. The 1988 Seoul Olympics, 1992 Barcelona, and 1996 Olympics in Atlanta will remain the crowning glories of his career.
