True. I know plenty of people who are 150-170lbs who can deadlift 405lbs with only a couple of months training.
Deadlifting is one of those lifts that is very easy to improve your lift week by week
Yeah, get that technique dialed in and progress comes quickly. The primary muscles for deads, back, hams, glutes get developed through tons of other exercises so you're developing them throughout the week, unless you're on a wretched lifting routine.
All that aside, JJ probably cares and focuses very little on his dl max. I've got plenty of time to dink around in the weightroom, he's like yah know, busy being a world class mixed martial artist.
