Two of sports biggest stars met in Texas on Thursday when Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt took batting practice and ran into Los Angeles Angels slugger Mike Trout.

While Watt was crushing dingers, Trout - who is pretty jacked, standing 6-foot-2 and weighing 235 pounds - was mesmerized by the size of the defensive end.

"He's 6-foot-6, 290, and shredded. I wouldn't want to be a running back and get hit by him, for sure," Trout told Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times.

For comparison's sake, here's a photo of the two standing side-by-side.

Sorry Mike, J.J. wins the gun show.
