that is like saying where is the evidence to support your claims. So you refuse to believe it's possible for somoene with superior genetics to surpass your chart?

No, the hastily thrown together chart with meaningless numbers is his "evidence". You must now produce photographs and other notarized documentation to refute the sheer heft of that.

I think that chart is more an avg.
I know plenty of lean, ripped looking dues who exceed that chart and play other sports .

As a high school sprinter, I didn't lift and was a lean 178lbs at 5'9".
there's a difference in being "lean" and being at 5% bodyfat

Most models Ive seen put a 5'9 guy around 180-190lbs max bodyweight at 8-10% so 170 or so would seem somewhere in the realm at a true 5%.  Most people probably see a guy at 8% and think he is 5%.  I don't see any reason why a person with a real high natural test level and years of training couldn't surpass this though.

Bullshit.  This doesn't account for differences between the races.  Hebrews on average are going to carry more muscle and less bodyfat.  Other races will be different also, on average.  Also, when you consider all the race mixing, between everyone, it's going to be very difficult to come up with numbers like that and expect them to be accurate.

It's no different than the BMI chart.  That is also bullshit.

If it's an average from a variety of different races it does.

true, but I was age 16-17 and didn't lift or know what a steroid was then, so wtf.
I'm no freak but competed in drug tested shows at 5% fat and around 193 lbs at 5' 9 1/2"
That goofy chart says I max at 155-160 lbs LOL.
I couldn't get that light unless I starved myself for weeks and chopped my leg off LOL

Does anyone here really think  a genetic freak like 5"11" Ronnie Coleman needed drugs to be
heavier then 165-170 lbs with 5% body fat.

This kind of chart reminds me of those goofy positive self esteem ht/wt /frame charts for chunky girls.
To be fair, you may have competed in a drug tested show, but you were not drug free.  At least according to your stories you posted.

I used to train BJJ with this guy. He, now, fights MMA at 185. At 6'3" I had about an inch of height on him.

Come on man.  You're using one guy to prove an argument?  That chart is BS.  It should be common sense that you can't make a chart like this and expect it to be accurate.  There are too many differences between humans, we don't all fit nicely in a chart.

Jon Jones is 6'4" and is soft at 205. The truth is most 6'2 athletic guys are lean at 185.
