That's totally understandable. Very taxing on the body to be that big as someone gets older. Hope Bautista is around to treat us with his skills for many years to come!

That’s what I was thinking—if he’s gonna keep making action movies, even tho it’s acting, there is still a fair amount of running and jumping even if doubles do a lot of it. Less weight = knees/hip/back last longer.

It’s more the prolonged steroid use
