C'mon, if you have to make a comparison with the best bencher in the world right now then that says something about Hulk.....he's a beast.
That's like when folks attempt to discredit great singers who perform "Nessun Dorma" and in order to discredit their performance they can only compare them to Pavarotti LOL.....one of the best of all time.
When you get to elite strength levels like Hulk the only comparisons are against worldclass. Even Dan Greene can't touch 600lb and Stan Efferding (one of the best in the world today) can barely put it up. I'm not even sure Kaz could put it up in his prime. Ted Arcidi could put it up. These are all elite, best in the world.
The thing is though, I'm just judging this Hulk dude by the stuff that was being proclaimed in the video. During it, we heard the following things being said:
"That's a walking legend right there"
"They whisper about this guy in corners"
"I see it but can't believe it"
"They don't do that shit no more"
"What?! Did he really do that shit?"
"Strongest mother fucker walking around on two legs"
"Strongest mother fucker on planet Earth"
"Cannot be defeated"
"Muhammad Ali of powerlifting"
After all that hype, I was expecting to be blown away. Instead, all we end up seeing is Hulk doing several paused reps with 405lbs and then a paused double with under 500lbs.
Very strong but come on, there are a number of pro BB's currently around that can do that.
