This russian athlete looks just like a young Robert Baratheon

Wrong forum? Please don't delete, but feel free to move it. I just want to see if other people's idea of Robert matches mine.

The video in itself is not particularly good and has nothing to do witht his forum - I'm just asking if you agree that he looks like your version of a young Robert Baratheon. There's no need to watch all of it. Start at 01:35 or 02:00. Hair, eyes, height, muscles, very strong, looks charismatic - just like a young Robert, although perhaps a tad shorter, but still towering over most men. He dominates in arm wrestling just as Robert did in melees - keep in mind that all matches after 02:00 are fought at top level - the world's best, and he goes through them just like Robert went through people. At his prime, he was the best - no one could stop him.

However, have no hope of seeing battle of the Trident, because unfortunately ... there's no Rhaegar there. More like Clayton Suggs :D 

The only difference, I think, is that he's a bit shorter and not as handsome as Robert was. Robert looked as good as Jaime does (according to Ned, Renly is a copy of a young Robert, but smaller, and Sansa thought Renly was the most handsome man she had ever seen, AFTER meeting Jaime, but whatever), and this guy is average, or perhaps a notch above it.

Agree?

Sorry, I got distracted watching the video. What was the question again??

Lol, come on. You take the time to answer  but make sure you don't answer what I wonder.

 

Does he look like you imagine a young (time of the Trident) Robert Baratheon? Except Robert's a bit taller and more handsome.

The combination with being almost 6'6, heavily muscled and tall black hair makes it rather rare, I've found.

Which muscled dude are we looking at? The one who won? I dunno...he's a bit too greasy looking, if that makes sense. And the Robert I imagine isn't so erm...'roided up.

Robert was very strong. Ned could barely lift Robert's hammer, who swinged it one-handed. Jaime, a strong man in his own right, thought "Robert had been stronger, to be sure", and mentioned the Cleganes, Greatjon Umber and Crakehall in the same sentence. I think he looked quite roided up, except he obviously wasn't
