An seriously, do you realise how strong and athletic people like mariusz actually are? Strongman events involve loads of running & tossing really heavy stuff. Mariusz could actually hold 2-3 heavyweight fighters in his arms and run around. He has world records in most of the strongman events.
If you look at the intensive training of the big fighters like lesnar, a lot of it is actually wimpier versions of things done in strongman.
This isnt a video of mariusz but one of his mates arild haugen. Just at how the size of these people does not necessary slow them down in the slightest. Have you ever tried to lift an atlas stone? Do you realise how awkward any heavy they are?

Many of the more athletic strongmen would easily have a chance against skilled fighters with no fighting skills, pureley for the fact they could grab and toss people.
Mariusz apparently got some skillz though, so it will be interesting to see how this turns out.
