Think back to your favourite athlete in the prime of their career. In your mind they will stay that way forever. Landing that knockout blow, hitting a baseball out of the park or deking out the goalie for the highlight reel, they look great. In reality though, NFL, MLB, boxing and athletes from other sports don’t always look immortal. They are just human after all.
Tank Abbott made a name for himself in the UFC by being a big, bald SOB who could take a shot and dole one back just as hard. Nowadays he’s looking more like a grumpy santa in a bad wig. Roberto Duran also crafted his legacy with a trail of broken men, but unlike Abbott, he wasn’t fat in his boxing days. Can’t say the same about “Hands of Stone” nowadays, but at least he looks happy. Marc Mero was a bearded wild man throughout his WWE career, but nowadays he’s a good old clean shaven Christian motivational speaker who preaches to kids about the dangers of drug and alcohol abuse. Tonya Harding is known by everyone for her involvement in the infamous Nancy Kerrigan attack back in 1994, but they certainly wouldn’t be able to pick her out of a crowd nowadays as she looks totally different. Not every transformation is necessarily for the worst. Former NFL centre Jeff Saturday went from 300 pounds down to 230 pounds in retirement and looks great. See him and others in these 10 Athletes You Wouldn’t Recognize Today.
