Perhaps weighing 300 lbs could offset that 'wear and tear' that would've come over the years to guys like Cruz and Graham?
That is just so much mass that the knee needs to be able to absorb and redirect. With another person pushing them at the same time, no less.
I'll give you age as a mitigating factor but now you have to take weight/force as an aggravating factor.
And I figure, at best, that puts us back where we started.
