    the chances of marcos, who probably walks around at 165, benching 420 pounds is very close to zero.

    Can't think of another HW that benched more than S.O.T Larsen.

    Truly a phenom.

    Tyson would probably bench alot with those short stocky arms.
     
  8. Ellie Sechbak said he did in one of his videos so its probably true.

    The first time I worked with Rahman he benched 545lbs. CLEANLY... without much struggle. He was out of shape and had not been working out for quite a long time. Factor into that his ridiculously long arms which put him at a disadvantage o the bench, and you have an insanely strong individual.

    Marcos would tear both triceps off the bone even attempting to unrack 420
     
  12. Bull**** I've seen him moving ALOT of weight around in videos and pictures on his twitter. The guy is 5'6ish and walks around at 165lbs hes strong as ****.

    Did Cintron have good weight room numbers or was he just a natural puncher?

    Benching heavy doesn't necessarily translate into punching hard and vice versa.
