      That is far from impressive i am surprised the weight is that low, dude looks ripped. Goes to show strength can be deceiving cant go by looks. Maybe he saves it for he's fights. He funny tho i was laughing the whole video.

        That was on an incline too so that is a harder than a bench. Not a bad weight for his size.

          Ok, so...

          1) Bench press is NOT weightlifting. It's powerlifting.

          2) He never bench pressed 235 (if that truly is what was on the bar), he never touched his chest and he was never really close to a complete lock out without help from the spotter.

          3) I have no clue what boxers bench, but for someone lifting weights this is by no means impressive.

            lol but seriously but benching big weight don't mean **** for punching strength. The chest muscles have little to do with that. It's more back, shoulder and arm muscles. Plus the legs provide the base.

              I tend to lean toward the majority also.
