    Jaws and the Bear are identical in weight and with just 1″ difference in height but one appears to be able to kick your ass and the other welll… not so much? I’m worried that something bad is going to happen to the champ… he looks to be very, very unhealthy. All the long term top eaters for the most part look vibrant and much healthier. Hope I’m wrong on this one. Anyone else have the same opinion… and how long can he continue in this condition?
