Even worse is Wilt Chamberlains claim that he benched 500 pounds

Years ago, in his prime, the number kicked around by trainers and people in the training camp was #365 - 385. I'd give him #405 ish during the prison years.
Strong guy.

Wasnt it Hasim Rahman who claimed 550lbs?

Mike said he got a prison guard pregnant .

Given the fact that he could KO people with one punch with 12 oz. gloves, I believe him.

Yes, during the 2nd Lennox fight, he claimed #500.
He's also known for the giant lump he got during the Holyfield fight right after -

Los Angeles, April 22 — Former heavyweight boxer Mike Tyson has claimed he got a prison officer pregnant when he was in jail.
However, he refused to give any details, reports dailymail.co.uk.
The 45-year-old retired boxer served three years of a six-year prison sentence for rape in 1992 and returned to jail for nine months in 1998 following a road rage conviction.
Tyson revealed that the woman in question did not have the child, but he refused to elaborate on any other details.
"I didn't talk about getting a prison official pregnant. Oh yeah. In prison, stuff happens. But she had no baby," Tyson said.
The former heavyweight champion, who has eight children, says he used to take many drugs previously, both legal and prescription describing them as his little friends.
"I just liked morphine, but I had to take a lot of it because it didn't stay in your system for a long time. And I'd have my cocaine, and I had my marijuana, and I had my Cialis and Viagra and my little friends all sitting there," he added.

Just watched it. Imagine being locked in a bathroom for 3 hours smoking coke with scary ass Mike Tyson. What a great story to have.

In his prime, Tyson was juiced to the gills. 500lb BP - if their are naturals claiming to do it here. Why couldn't he? They have everything in the big house, that we have available.
Ben Johnson used to come around to the gym from time to time. He used to play around with 3 plates on the bench, and 3 plates and a quarter. And 5 plates on the squat. He was just around 200lb BW. For his build no body would believe it, unless they seen it in person. His general AAS protocol was 3 weeks on 3 weeks off Winstrol Depot or/and Furazabol 3* a week at 1-2cc. He preferred the latter over Winstrol Depot.

Yeah, I, too, witnessed Johnson weight train when at his peak ... The lifts you claim were indeed performed, but NOT in any way, shape or form to any acceptable standard. His squats were quarter reps, at best, and his presses were horrific.
Anyway ...
Anyone who believe Tyson benched 500, legit, has never pressed 315, legit.
Fuck me

This is a crazy statement, Tyson known for his power, not a small guy by any means. Was easily 250 while in, Was probably juiced to the gills, 500 probably slightly exaggerated, but not by much, so according to you if I believe him I never benched 300? THAT IS THE SUPIDEST THING i HAVE EVER READ IN MY ENTIRE LIFE, wow I can't bench 315 cause you said so, I will smash 315 for 20 any day of the week, lots of youtube videos of me should I post one up. lol...anyway I would give him between 400-450, probably did 500 with someone holding the bar

Can't understand literal from simply making a point, huh?
Anyway, calm down, Mildred.
Tyson was NEVER 250 pounds. Are you for real? He was likely never heavier than 215-220 in his fighting prime.
And punching power is one thing, pushing 500 is quite another. The latter helps the former, but the former, when fully developed, is in no way reliant upon the latter.

sure he was, he weighed in at a fat 270 when he went in, most fighters in the world usually weigh 20-30lb heavier then fightnight, everyone knows this.

Tyson was over 300lbs when he came out of jail in Maryland. George Foreman benched a legit 500

Ya that's what I thought and walked around at close to 250 almost all the time, lol at people who think he fought at 215 and walked around at 215, lmao. :D

Lotsa folks with a hazy memory 'round these parts.
And all this so-and-so benched 500 crap is getting old.
Get to know the deal.

Tyson fought around 220-225lb for the majority of his heavyweight fights. He was often heavier in the off season.

I've met only 2 people who could bench 500 and both were at least 300 pounds and juiced to the gills.

"Acceptable standard" - we can debate that all day, I won't.
Having seen some powerlifters do it in the fancy suits and the way they push and prod on the bench, it doesn't take anything away from the lifts of these world class athletes. They did it with nothing but a belt. It's rather ironic seeing the fat whales in power suits pull and prod on the bench press until they touch the barbell to their belly button (who really performs a bench like that. try that and your shoulders will come apart, if not for the suit), only to raise it back up a few inches. Only real lifts are raw lifts - with nothing but a belt.
When performing 500lb+ squats Johnson always used a bench and a spotter. He also trained at the university i went to and the local gym. This was post his prime years. He's bench press was done clean and with full range of motion.
As to Tyson, he focused too on the fast twitch muscles just like Johnson. However, he performed the movements in a even more explosive fashion. Remember, they weren't training to be powerlifters, but being a world class sprinter and a boxer.
"Anyone who believe Tyson benched 500, legit, has never pressed 315, legit".
I can press just a little more than 315lb for 1RM, doesn't say anything for anyone that they are not doing a "legit" bench or have never done one. Your point is negated therefore. We have a lot of strong individuals here that can play around with the 3 plates on the BP, whereas they lack in the other power movements i.e. squat/deadlift. Everyone has a niche. I can play around with 4 plates+ on the deadlift and squat and can't do shit on the bench, that doesn't take anything away from someone legitimately doing a certain number for 1RM.
Truth is often exaggerated, that is just part of the game. Liars are a dime a dozen. Maybe he really rounded off his 450lb bench to 500lb. 450 is not too shabby either. Having seen Johnson, he could have easily done around 420-440lb for 1rm.

Johnson never got to 200lbs. He was 160lbs in race condition. He occasionally went just over 175lbs in the off season.
When he won at Seoul he was 165lbs.
He reportedly benched 405 prior to Seoul. But at that time he was smashing anadrol as he had replaced the winstrol with it cos he had an argument with his coach and didnt have a clue what he was doing.
-
has anyone ever asked him about juicing? i am convinced he had to dabble in something, he was built like an ox and chad nichols was his..."nutritionist" ::)
Come on bro...of course he dabbled in steroids. Probably started when he was extremely young. No doubt about it. All the top heavyweights dabbled in steroids. Look at Holyfield. Dude was juiced to his gills!
The funny thing is someone like Tyson would gladly admit allt he rec drugs and illicit drugs he used but would probably adamantly deny ever touching steroids...........go figure that one! LOL.......

This is the late 90's - post his prime years as a competitor (at this stage he had received a lifetime ban), and early 2000. He was much heavier at this stage 190-200.

Every juicers "naturals" enigma. They'll openly admit to robbing, assaulting, and raping someone at gun point before they admit to delving in hormones, as if it takes away from their accomplishments. ::)

Yup just being in prison easily adds 50 lbs to your max bench press.

nicely played. I was thinking of this J.Foxx clip when I read the title of the thread.

about as believable as the 20 000 women claim.
I had a guy come up to me at the gym and claim a 500lb bench there a little while ago.. meh..
Tyson might of hit the 400 mark..
-
Johnson easily pushing 410-440?! Never. Not then and not now.
Tyson might have done a crap rep with 385-415, but that would be about it.

chris is feeling up a chick and yates in check out chris's package.... sounds about right

500 was probably bounced and he had a 300lb brotha pulling on the bar, but I can believe it.
there's vids on youtube of 500lb benchers who could (and probably do try to!) pass for natural.. apart from their bloated test faces they dont look like much.
tyson was an explosive tank and doing nothing but eating, juicing and sleeping all day is great for strength training.

Very true.
Mike had knockout power but used to get pushed around in most of his fights, i doubt he was greatly strong.
Who knows though, but i call bs on the 500lb, too far above his training lifts.

Ben Johnson used to come around to the gym from time to time. He used to play around with 3 plates on the bench, and 3 plates and a quarter. And 5 plates on the squat. He was just around 200lb BW. For his build no body would believe it, unless they seen it in person. His general AAS protocol was 3 weeks on 3 weeks off Winstrol Depot or/and Furazabol 3* a week at 1-2cc. He preferred the latter over Winstrol Depot.
for his size I would believe it. Olympic runners and skeers and skaters and jumpers and whatever have very good squat in relation to their bodyweight, but your little bodybuilding dumb ass minds just can't get it.
But Ben Johnson didn't "PLAY" with 5 plates, he went war with it, start at 02:42

what were his training lifts?
-
Exactly the way I would see Ben squat. And as I say, these squats are NOT legit, from a honest-squat perspective. His partner has a full wrap on him (which, even if the partner doesn't think he's helping much, is helping A LOT), his reps are shallow as hell and he's rebounding off a bench (very helpful).
So, yeah ... Ben was good for perhaps a few good reps at 315.
