Who is the strongest...

[FeelTheA-Force]

bench press is an overrated exercise. and does not prove you have guts or balls or POWER..

i ***ing hate it when you go gym and all you see if "meatheads" doing bench press.

[LondonRingRules]

Rahman benches 500.

Pound for pound I'd say it's Shane Mosley, he benches 350 and squats 500.. that's coming from a natural lightweight.

** Mosely also did steroids, so it don't count.

Is this for 1 repetition? 5oolbs for 1 rep isnt unlikely for Rahman. But i bet all top boxers can bench quite a lot. Calzaghe might be able to bench a bit. Hatton probably can as well. Hopkins, and not just Lacy because he looks like a body builder.

Rock is real strong but id say its out of Briggs, Valuev and Klitschko. Mabey Tye Feilds too. P4P Lacy

How much can Lacy bench?

[im42no]

Hell Yeah he can bench 500 that isnt even that much for how big his ass is. Darren Sproles a 5' 6" tailback for San Diego can bench 500 and squat 800. So im pretty sure Rocks big ass can bench that too.

[hemichromis]

almost certainly valuev hes so much bigger

Before the Klit and Rock fight was going to happen


"Klitschko will have the benefit of size, with a five and a half inch height and 20 pound advantage, but although Vitali is strong, Rahman can bench press 500 pounds and has arms like tree trunks."

That is one article, I highly doubt that they'd get it wrong.

you mean he says he can bench press 500 lbs. anyway,,,I heard his brother benches over 500 and he does over 400. not sure who his brother is,,but I dont think hes a boxer

No he didn't say, the people who wrote the article said. They said that when they saw him working out he was benching a little over 500. He said that his bro can bench press 100lbs more than him so that's 600 lbs right there, I think he's a surgeon or a doctor. Type in "Hasim Rahman 500 bench" on google or something like that and you might find it. I've seen several articles saying that he can bench 500 though.

Boxer right now? Not punching power, but overall strength such as lifting weights. Rahman is pretty damn strong, he can bench over 500lbs.
