Baena said he was a fat kid who struggled a lot with normal activities. He said, “I was the chubby kid in my crew. It was until I joined swim my sophomore year — and I only joined swim because I didn’t make the soccer or basketball team. I got cut because I was too chubby.”

Bradley digs at Baena in the video by saying he could beat Arnold in bodybuilding. However, on this Baena made a sarcastic remark, “I don’t know man. I don’t know if you’d even beat Lou [Ferrigno] You look like Ronnie Coleman met Frank Zane.” 

Bradley questioned Baena if he knew anyone who could beat Arnold. Then Baena said, “The lines are so different now. “Joe added,”The conditioning now is a lot more dry. To me, it doesn’t look like a sculpture anymore, it looks like a bodybuilder. I don’t know. It’s a tough one.”
