PIC: Infamous MMA villain Rousimar Palhares has gotten so ripped that he barely looks human

Good grief

Something tells us that when Rousimar Palhares returns from his suspension, he won’t be fighting at welterweight.

The former World Series of Fighting champion is currently serving a two-year suspension for failing to let go of a kimura against Jake Shields after the referee intervened, and it looks like he’s been spending his time off hitting every weights in the gym.

Well, that is when he’s not working around his suspension by fighting in Europe… not that we’re complaining too much about that.

A photo has emerged of the MMA villain posing with his gym buddies and quite frankly, he’s put on a serious amount of mass.

Palhares has fought as heavy as light-heavyweight in the past, but as you can see from the image below, he looks like he could have packed on enough to fight at heavyweight.

Check out the Rousimar Palhares that looks like he could eat the older version of himself as a snack in the photo below (on the far left).

If you’re still struggling to locate him after those instructions, just look for the group of three people standing up on the extreme left. Now have a closer look. That’s right, that’s actually one person – Palhares.
