Say adios to images of gladiators with rippling muscles and swords; the vision presented in 'Modern Gladiator' in Razor | Red Magazine is significantly skinnier.
Model Pawel Bednarek takes the charge for this fighter-themed editorial. Instead of shields and chainmail, though, he's outfitted in football pads, a boxer's head protector and a vinyl jacket. I don't know if he could fight a lion or take down a more well-muscled opponent, but fashion photography is allowed a little creative hyperbole.
