Well hes not exactly in contest condition, so they would probably be bigger

[MisterMagoo]

He didn't fake anything...

Geez...

Look, the man is VERY strong.  He had an off day.  I have seen him pull over 800 lbs. Anything over 700 lbs is world class.  Give the man his props and let it be. 

he'll get 900 someday. the 800 seemed INCREDIBLY easy until his ham went and he nearly tipped over sideways. it's kinda weird though that he pulled 814 at about 230, but in the 270s he injured himself with 821.

ronnie "technically" is not stronger.. ronnie made that lift with straps.. he also made that lift at over 300 pounds.. bring ronnie down to 275 and make him use no straps and he would not be able to do it..

Ronnie wasnt over 300lbs when he done that bud.In the Unbelievable video he does it, he was a few weeks out from the Olympia and he never weighed even 300 at any Olympia........Please get facts straight before you post

Ronnie was still stronger. 805 for 2.

Yeah. Without powershirts too. But using strap.

He was 287.

and appears to hurt himself in the process.  Looks like a pulled/torn hammie. However, it must be nice to be handled by the LEGEND Ed Coan

I am now a fan of Johnny J!  That is old school, hardcore lifting, my friends. Damn, that guy has some awesome lb for lb power!  Makes me want to enter a bench meet.

Ron was 5 weeks out of the freaking Olympia pulled 805 for 2. Put Ron in full offseason 315lbs and he is easily outdoes Johnny. Ron should have retired after 2005 and then done the WSM.

A genuinely nice person.

As easy as the double with 765 was I don't understand why the first attempt was so hard - especially considering he even put on a suit.

[BM OUT]

Hmmmm,geeze,765 is a looooong way from the 1000lbs he has predicted.By the way,where are all you guys who bash gear in powerlifting as Johnny wore the most jacked up deadlift suit he could get on and had his super jacked bench shirt thrown out of the meet.Thats funny,I thought RAW is all that counts.I guess when it comes down to it,everyone,including the morally supperior bodybuilder,is looking for an advantage.

I agree
ronnie is waaay stronger.. he was not 300 he was 5 weeks out
ronnie pulled 800 for 2 during a workout not at a meet....
and he did so after 4 heavy sets before that..
after which he knocked out barbell rows working from 315 to 500
no contest even with coleman retired i dont even think johnie is the strongest bber around now...
