Boxers are freaken strong...

I meant 180. I got my numbers muddled, a 20kg plate and 10kg plate on each side.

Plus the bar (another 20kg).

I did my maths wrong..

LOL. JUY is funny.

It was in a magazine in '89. I have it somewhere, when I get a scanner you can read it yourself and it has a pic too of Benn curling it while roaring at the camera.. you'll see.

I don't know if I should believe it, but seeing Benn's KO's back then it wouldn't suprise me.

You yourself perfectly know that your curling numbers are not related to a big punch.

true. power and strength are different.

thats not true at all. if ur not strong and u punch someone, it'll hurt far less then if u are strong... so the fact that he curls that much means hes that much stronger...

I know. But it's clear Benn had natural strength, in his KO's back then.

corrie sanders wasn't exactly known for his work in the weight room.

Wrong, you are talking about heavyhandedness, even though its also not directly connected to your curling numbers, Physically strong people that dont box are just more prone to pushing while they hit due to their phisical strength, and while pushing is not power its still can hurt an unprepared person.
I am not gonna start explainin how does punching power work and what are its components, its too late and I am too drunk.
But just read training section, and especially what Kid Achiless got to say.

there is no correlation between "strength" and punching power.
