Fattest wrestler of all time?

[Iop]

Who was the fattest wrestler of all time?

Was it Haystacks Calhoun, or was there anyone fatter than him?

Was Yoko fatter than Haystacks?

[whiteyford]

Big Daddy was a bit of a porker

[CSL]

Giant Haystacks was bigger than Haystacks Calhoun

England represent

[Droford]

wasn't he Loch Ness in WCW?

that guy was just fat

[Anybody Thrilla]

Mickie James has to be in the running here.

[RiX1024]

Big Daddy was well fat but not as fat as Giant Haystacks.

[The Destroyer]

Yokozuna at his peak was apparently bigger than Giant Haystacks at his peak.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I think I remember Yokozuna being advertised around 800 lbs at his heaviest. Can't translate that to stone for you Brits, but that's pretty fucking fat. Dunno if it was true or not, though.

[Anybody Thrilla]

Independent circuit (1999–2000)

After his WWF career ended, he performed for various independent promotions. The last major appearance for Yokozuna was at October 1999's Heroes of Wrestling pay-per-view, where he looked enormously overweight compared to his WWF days. At an estimated 760 pounds, he had not only gained the weight that he had lost but admitted he was intentionally getting bigger with a goal weight between 850 and 900 pounds. At the pay-per-view event, Yokozuna was scheduled to take on King Kong Bundy in one of the event's two featured matches. However, this was not to be as Jake Roberts, who was scheduled to face Jim Neidhart in the other main event match, came to the ring for his match intoxicated and in no condition to wrestle. The promoters made a last minute change and ordered Yokozuna to team with Roberts against Bundy and Neidhart, and Yokozuna's team lost.[1]
[edit] Personal life

Damn. Why would anyone want to be 900 lbs?

[El Fangel]

Sumo? Guessing here.

[MisterLee]

its quite obvious that Yokozuna was a fat mofo but dang.. when I look at this pic, it pretty nasty mang.

[Hanso Amore]

The difference in Yoko and Haystacks was about 7 inches. And they were similar weights.

[CSL]

and Yoko was pretty good considering. Haystacks was awful

[Anybody Thrilla]

Sumo? Guessing here.

He never actually competed as a sumo wrestler, so wrap your head around that.

[Hanso Amore]

Wait, WHAAT?! Then how did he get the Champions name of Yokozuna?

Next thing I know you will try to tell me that The Goon never played in the NHL.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I also heard that Duke Droese was an avid recycler, so I don't know what to think anymore.

[MartinBullet]

Have a look at this (http://www.looneypalace.com/worlds-fattest-athlete/)

Not a "wrestler" per se, but Jesus Christ!

[Rollermacka]

In the 1950s, Happy Humphery weighed in regularly at 800 but at one point weighed around 900 lbs. I've said it before, out of curiousity I would want to see him wrestle his 600 lb arch nemesis Haystacks Calhoun

[Anybody Thrilla]

That sounds disgusting and boring. If Big Show and Mark Henry have to work to be "pretty decent", that would be downright excruciating.

[Damndirty]

This almost a thread asking which one had the biggest floppiest titties? That would probably be a tie between Big Daddy V and Abdullah the Butcher.

[Wolfpack423]

It's probably Haystacks Calhoun with Yokozuna (though I'm a big fan of his), Mabel/Viscera/Big Daddy V, Mark Henry, Vader (once again I'm a big fan of his), Earthquake, Tugboat/Typhoon, Bastion Booger, and Brodus Clay following. You had people like Rikishi and the Samoans, but they could actually move as could Vader and Yoko was good as well during his earlier runs, but of course by 1996 he was just too big to really do anything, doesn't mean I wasn't still a fan.

[CSL]

there have probably been roughly 3,498 wrestlers fatter than Mark Henry, Vader, Brodus Clay etc bro

[Destor]

his body fat % has to be legit 80%+

[Dark-Slicer Diago]

I thought it was Bastion Booger myself.

[KIRA]

there was some big fat guy during NWA-TNAs first few televised shows he was so big he just kinda sat there and looked like he could have a heart attack at any given moment.

Anybody know his name

HOLY HELL.

[daimoniac]

remember the headhunters? they were fucking huge - they couldnt half fly though

[Skippord]

god damn, their gunts have gunts

[Rollermacka]

I want to see it more for the "spectacle" than for the wrestling. Of course its going to be horibily slow, hell I don't think even Macho Man Randy Savage could carry an 800 pound man in a match (no pun intended) and he made Kevin Nash look passable in late WCW.

[Anybody Thrilla]

I would be terrified to work with those McGuire guys. How do they even get in the ring?

Are you referring to Swish? He's like a tornado coming after you...or some shit like that.

[Lock Jaw]

According to Wikipedia, that Cheex guy broke the ring right before the very first broadcast in a dark match. So they had to shuffle the schedule around and put a bunch of non-wrestling segments first while they desperately tried to fix the ring as fast as they could.
