How much is Hatton shrugging here?

I agree a 140lbs man shrugging 528lbs is very, very impressive. But seeing as Hatton wasn't actually doing a shrug I don't see this as impressive.

 

No, the fact that most can't tell what a 20kg plate looks like is quite amazing to me and the fact that you think shrugging 6plates a side is impressive indicates you've never hit the weights.

 

19 Per Side or 19 in total? I did 13 a side when I was 19 (27 now), I was around 160-180 at that age, but if I was ripped I'd be less.

Leg Press is another ego lift, guys can do 12plates per side and only squat 180kg, which is good but not great

True measure of strength = Squat/Bench/Deadlift/Power Clean/Overhead Press. Notice they don't show footage of him doing these exercise because he only benches around 90kg. I didn't bother with ego lifts like Leg Press or Shrugs after my teenage years.

Ricky Hatton probably doesn't deadlift much over 140-160, which is decent but again not amazing

 

Leg press serves it's purpose.
Concentric.

 

Hatton does his weights in a seperate workout from what I've read.

If Kayes did say he could make Hatton into a top powerlifter hes way off and Kayes doesn't have powerlifting expertise anyway.

I'm sure Ricky would put up some reasonable numbers but top powerlifters lift insane numbers, even 140lb 1s (and Hatton would compete at 150, no day before weigh ins).

The lift isn't shabby but Ricky just isn't that powerful. If he was he'd be a bigger more explosive puncher

The biggest powerwise around Hattons weight is Shane Mosley who probably outlifts Hatton by 50% going by reports - although we haven't seen these for sure. Kostya Tyszus lifts put Hattons to shame too.

Having said all this Ricky is a great overall package of stamina and strength and stands a shot at beating PBF

 

My favourite story about Tszyu is that he can do plyometric press-ups so well that he can get from press-up position to standing position in one push. Probably bull****, but a cool myth nonetheless.

 

i heard tszyu does a head stand against the wall and stays there for time to work his neck.

 

You taking the **** out of my bull**** story? I honestly saw it on a website somewhere.

 

I heard a Tszyu straight right is the reason Waldo has been hiding.

 

no seriously, i think i read it in his book, i cant remember.
