Dear Friends

What kind of weight do you think Mike Tyson could push?
He used to do weights after his prison years,
Someone told me they heard a 1 rep bench off 500lbs!! ::)
Yours thankfully

Not sure but Early on Leroy Colbert was his nutritionist when he was champ.
Then it was Chad Nichols after prison.
-
I highly doubt it.....Tyson's hands were always to sore and bruised due to all the rape and spousal abuse to handle that kinda weight.
-
Like most boxers, he doesn't use weights much. His lifts wouldn't be that high because he's not even used to lifting in general; he's naturally strong and could build up the poundages fairly quickly if he ever trained regularly, but doesn't.
-
Chad Nichols said that Mike Tyson was one of the most naturally strong Athletes he had ever seen/worked with.
Also said Mike was and always has been steroid free.
I have seen Mike Speed rep 225 on Squat ass to floor.

LOL!
-
I saw Tyson work out a few times and the guy spent more time biting spotters, smoking weed, and raping Ivanko plates than he did lifting. But for the sake of argument, I'll wager 42-1 that he can't put up 365 for a single.

At the Tryon School for Boys, the 13-year-old Tyson bench-pressed 220 pounds for $10 bets with the school staff.

Here is Evander Holyfields workout:
http://sportsci.org/news/news9709/hatfield.html
-
I'd guess 462 on the bench..
-
If the dude is drug free he is obv genetically gifted. The guy is a boxer. I wouldent doubt he could press alot of weight.
-
I doubt he was drug free.
-
does pot count?
-
I bet he benched Desiree Washington for 20-30 solid reps before he blew his load and threw her out!!!
-
I'd guess 462 on the bench..
460, tops.
It sickens me how people will just guess about things like this.
;D
-
Drug free my ass! he was popping halo's like they were skittles!
-
i heard he bench pressed 525 for 10 and stops bullets and leaps tall buildings. ::)

Exactly! Halos & GH are a daily deal in pro Boxing, Jorge Louis Gonzales told me that little secret years ago.
-
I bet he has a goofy face tattoo like someone else we know... ::)
-
460, tops.

;D
Agreed, we should ban this guy...
-
I wouldnt doubt for a second he could press 500. he got this big without even aiming for size. And hes the most dominant monster ever. heres evidence.
-

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!! ahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good one ;D ;D

hahahahaha, "this big", he's like 205lbs. with 16 inch arms. ::)
-
Ok maybe 495 after seeing that vid..
-

AHAHAHAHAHAH!!! Beat me to it!!
-
This guy can catch pigeons with his bare hands.. Don't doubt him!
-
365 on a good day and then he goes to find a piece of jungle booty!
-
hahahahaha, "this big", he's like 205lbs. with 16 inch arms. ::)
More like 215 - 220lbs. (in his prime) now he's in the 230-240lbs. range. Despite his age and decline in skills, he'd still OWN every member of the squad in a street fight or boxing ring. hahahaha!!!
-

Superstar would crush tyson in a backyard brawl! I would be carefull about your accusations buddy...
-
hahahahaha, "this big", he's like 205lbs. with 16 inch arms. ::)
at 5"10 and considering he was natural, that is big for a boxer (or anyone who isnt a genetic freak like yourself obviously) ::) Not everyone is 250lbs with 20" arms knobhead. Anyway, 16" arms or not, theres not a fucking chance in hell you would ever say something like that in his presence. This "small" 205lb guy would fucking OWN you and the rest of this board

What about that streetfigher from the Y board? Jamie or something like that. He would pwn Tyson.

Now that, was funny.
I bet he could do a one arm bench press with Mitch Greens' eye socket for one rep.

Jamiex5600 would knock out an 80's - in his prime Tyson.
-
You're lucky he can't read, you'd all be askin' for an ass beating from Tyson..
-

I bet he could do a one arm bench press with Mitch Williams eyes socket for one rep.

hahahaha, i liked when they had Mitch at a press conference he said, "like a sissy and a little girl, he ran" talking about Tyson.

I think that was a reverse dumbell kickback, not a pressing movement ;D ;D ;D
-
my favorite Tyson line was after a fight he said, "i'm just gonna fade into Bolivian" hahahahahaha.

Some big guy who post's on the alphabet bords, there's pics of him doing bag work/posing/in the same room as some girl.

He is the reason Tyson isn't on the board right now threatening everyone.

Bullshit. Any member of THE SQUAD would send little Mikey away crying for Robin Givens and her mom. There is no way anyone with a lisp can stand up to us.

Dear friends

What is "The Squad"?

I heard he could barely squat his own weight from someone who said he trained with him.

Kinda like "the goonies" but with 30 year old's.

I would say he could LIFT your TV set, dvd player,any jewelery and cash you had around the house and any thing else he could sell to pay for his drug habit and Dept's

ahahahahahahah!!!! Xanax gets pricey when your broke!!!!!!!! ahahahaha good one........
-
Tyson was a monster thick and thick!! He did a circuit type training 3 times a week. I can believe he can bench 500 because of his crazy powerfull punches. He wouldn't do it bodybuilding style though and would use a lot of momentum. Tyson could knock down any of those UFC "fighters" with his eyes closed.
-
alexxx, please.
tyson has been offered a shit load of money by both k1 and pride to fight, but he will only fight boxing rules - as every boxer would vs. an mma fight.
from your previous comments on the video you thought was randy couture, you know nothing about the fighting sports.
he wont be punching anyone on his back.
tyson is too stupid to figure out a dosage, line up that corresponding number on the syringe and inject it.
-
I was very impressed with Tyson's physique in his later years. The guy weighs like 230 lb with abs, and I doubt he works out much.
-
*cough* bull...shit *cough*
He weighed 200lbs at age 13 so why couldn't he bench that much.
-
You guys are way off. I said this on here before. My business partner in Muscle Mafia trained Mike for 3 months on Maui for the K-1. First thing in the morning Mike ran 5 miles. He came to the gym. He could NOT bench 315 unassisted. He could barely bench his bodyweight for 10 without help. And he squatted his bodyweight for 10. I will ask him for more precise number when I talk to him next to make sure. But this is what I remembered being told by him. Mike had natural strength. Like some guys who I know. They woudl get ahold of you and you couldn't get away. They were strong as heck. But in the weight room they were weak as heck. Mike was like that.
-
dear Onlyme
Kind regards
Please tell more
Your friend really trained with him?wow!
Yours thankfully
John
-
i doubt mike was "natural" most of them are juiced up in the heavies

Mike Tyson - ALL DRUGS ::)

What your mouth, "davidpaul."

What your mouth, "davidpaul."
you gonna own me bro? ::)
-
Onlyme is right, Tyson was never known for strength. he had insane hand speed and explosive punching power. that is why he was so good, add in some good footwork and there you have it...
when he was younger he was strong for his size but once he went pro he trained for explosive power and hand speed...i know he did mainly dips and chins for upper body training. i have one of his old routines somewhere i'll try to find.

I think you just need to learn a little respect for THE SQUAD. Your insolence will not be tolerated.

Yes Showstoppa, "jeanpaul" is almost forcing us to put in some major internal bleedings.

Actually his comments about the goonies was pretty funny and accurate. As Arnold would say, "Stop whining!" :D

Dorkeroo, aptly named I might add, do you really want to go down this path? There is no return once THE SQUAD has decided to declare you a tiny tit.

I am too close to 30 to call anyone that age old :'( But you are correct in that as one ages, intellect generally improves. Of course there are exceptions to this phenomenon like Bob Chick, Vince B (the fake guy in the other thread) and Vince G. to name a few ;D
-
Damn! Too many tiny tits in this forum. The SQUAD's work is never done >:(
-
Shane Mosley put 350 up as a 135 lbr. So I wouldn't be supprised if Tyson could put 5 up in his prime.

You guys remember when Cormier said in MD that he almost fighted Mike Tyson ?
haha he said: " Come on I am 290 pounds !, I would knock him to the ground, I would just outweight the smaller man ! " or something like that
Chris is funny

Chris would get knocked out by Tyson inside of a minute, even the way Tyson is now.
-
Yes !
Even if Chris is 50-60 pounds heavier, he couldn't handle 1 punch !
-
i can't believe Cormier would say something so stupid, he can't actually think he'd have a chance against tyson, i'd love to see him just get his head pounded in for talking shit like that.

I remember actually that Chirs said that Tyson slapped him in the back of the head and he did nothing back. I think he knew while against and alot of guys size makes a big difference, but Tyson is Tyson. Chris is a St. Bernard, big and could do some damage, but Mike is a Pit Bull, absolutely deadly. I think later the story said that Mike apologized, because he did it for no reason and Chirs didn't seem to deserve it. I can't remember how it exactly went though. At least Chris isn't like Titus going around calling out pro fighters, he knows when to say when.

thats about right, chris also said the only thing he was prepared to do was tackle him until help arrived. Chris knew better

There was a feature in FLEX mag's Hangin' Out (a great column by John little) a few years ago. The story was, that Chris was out at some club and he says someone slapped him really hard on the back of his neck. In his own words, "His hands are really hard, felt like a table. Anyway, I turn around all furious to see who it is and it was none other than Tyson. He saw the look on my face and immediately put his fists up. And man, I just stepped back - I mean, I was mad enough to hit him, but not stupid enough to do it. Anyway, a few days later, me and my boy Rico (McClinton, who knew Tyson) bumped into Tyson somewhere in Venice. Rico then asked him, "Hey man, why did you slap my boy?", to which Mike answered, "Aw. I was just jokin with him. He's a big boy, he can take it" or something along those lines.
Damn, I have a damn good memory 8)

Yep, you're 100% right. Damn, those were the days. No internet and the only news I got about the events in the bodybuilding world were primarily through FLEX. I used to love that mag. They had pretty good writers and articles. Now, of course, there's Getbig and everything else. I now realise that all those guys were
