David (Tank) Abbott at age 30

Although his form was trash, there are no amateur or pro bodybuilders to ever bench 600.

Ronnie Colemans best is somewhere around 545 and Stan Efferdings (WR holding powerlifter and IFBB Pro bodybuilder) best bench is close to 600 but not quite
Kevin Levrone had some freaky lifts too.

495 lbs for 3 reps on the bench press, and then 455 lbs for 4 reps on the incline bench a few minutes later, just over 1 week out from the '98 Olympia:



Behind-the-neck presses with 405 lbs for 5 reps, just over 1 week out from the 2000 Olympia:

The Tank that murderd Hugeo Duerta was a fucking beast, most probaly the best shape ive ever seen him in.


Also he was screwed over twice and if he wasnt theres a fair chance he would of been a tournament champ and the Ultimate Ultimate champ
 
Its fake lol...I am not denying Tank was a strong guy, but this was nowhere near 600 lbs.

25 kg plates each.

6 plates each side.

Do you even math bro ?
 
Legit Pioneer. Would drink a beer. Fight. Then back to the bar for a Beer. #HEADCLEANOFF !!!
 
He was the first guy on those early ufcs to have any personality whatsoever.
 
Its 6 plates 585, then hes got a 5 and 2.5 on each side for exactly 600. Open your eyes. thats how the bar bends at 600, i know, i deadlift 6 plates. Ya he bounced it, and it wouldnt pass as an official lift in competition. Just being able to take the impact of that weight bounce alone would ruin 99% of humans especially those doubting his video and thats exactly what they deserve so they keep their stupid pussy mouths shut. So ya thats very strong regardless, he probably could bench 315 like nothing back then.
 
Some of his Octagon-side color commentary and select interviews were just as entertaining as his fights inside the Octagon.

depends on the plates, the lowest for those kind would be 45ibs, there is 12 of them, plus the bar. So guessing the plates are not fake that would be 585 plus what ever small plates he has on there
 
I knew an HB cop that was on good terms with Tank. They used to bring him around to help clear out bar fights.

Said it was funny as shit. They would just bring Tank around, people knew who he was and Tank would yell at them to stop fighting and they would stop, Tank would yell at them to tip the waitress and dudes would throw cash to them as quick as possible.
