Mark hunt doesn't look like he liftsmuch weights, but LeBanner, Sapp and Coleman look strong.Monson too.

I heard Gary Goodrich can bench 600.  And he was a World Armwrestlig Champ too.

he did 585 so i don't think 600 would have been too much of a problem.

isn't he out of MMA all together now?

Tank was a legend when the sport was new however, by today's standards he wouldn't have made it far and you wouldn't even know who the hell he is.

He just be the big guy with no teeth at the end of a bar and broke.

Your arms get impressed?  How do they communicate this with your "brain"?
