…I liked it because he just seemed to be having fun himself…although it was obviously quite a physical role ….so fairly much hard-ish work and tough going…was that physique just for the role or is that his general self…is he always that level of body fitness…?…it was so perfect that I thought maybe it was computer generated or drawn onto his torso……

I saw an interview with him and I think he did a lot of work for it, specific training and diet to get that shape to look like a Martial artist. He was in a film where he was a boxer, Southpaw a few years back and he was in great shape for that too but he looked like a boxer rather than an MMA fighter, so there's obviously differences for the type of physique he was going for

He's a great actor as well and really quite method in his approach.

I suppose it'd be nice to get paid to get in shape though

Don't think I've seen that. But he's one of my favorite actors. He's so good.

…yeah, his shape/physique and Patrick Swayze’s were quite different, I thought…but I don’t know which was ‘more accurate’ to an MMA fighter…

Patrick looked amazing on that movie. Different shape but still

…I always think of him as having a dancer physique, rather than a fighting one…but he did train as a dancer, didn’t he…and of course, Dirty Dancing…..

Yes, he was a dancer. Had a dancer's body. But great actor as well. So versatile.

We should bring back the movie club.

Definitely Jakes, Patrick Swayzes version of Dalton wasn't an MMA fighter though, he was supposed to be a Black belt in Karate

Patrick Swayze did do martial arts as well as the dancing.
