Naw, he is 5'8...when he's standing next to slighter taller dudes, he is outweighed. He maybe 200. 220 is doubtful. Shawn Ray was really 5'6 at 205 and looked like a tank. Same with Dex. Flex was 216 at the 93 Arnold, and this dude not even peeled looks about the same size for years.
That was 2010, he probably is bigger now and doing 220. And then again he could be lying to say he was bigger. He said 195. So, I will give him 200, with the jewelry added on.
And at 220, I would seriously question his natty claims (one of the few that don't brag about it all the time).
OK maybe you are right, although I did read 220. Don't forget you look smaller when you are not shredded on camera. The dude is not shredded and your comparison to Ray is Ray being shredded

Nevertheless it was an impressive lift, because he doesn't look like he could 500 for a single rep. Now, one wonders what he could do if he really was serious about competitive raw benching.
Points taken.
