LMAO!

Dana makes 225 @ 14 look easy. To bad lifting weights is retarted. Unless your goal is to gain strength for MMA.

or if you have unfinished issues with Tito?

Dana White by flying head-butt! (since they will go at it at Kimbo’s backyard!)

315 ilbs is only the left side of Gary Shaw’s ass and he picks that up routinely. This is no big deal!!!

by Procannonfodder on Jun 18, 2008 11:07 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Wow wonder what kind of juice hes taking

by yoyoman on Jun 18, 2008 11:11 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Is this the big anouncement? lol! :)

by DB on Jun 18, 2008 11:37 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

he should be steroid tested

by Dave on Jun 18, 2008 12:02 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Thats pretty good.

When I trained I was benching no more than 225.

I was smaller then but I don’t train now but still think I could push to 285 for 1 rep.

315 is heavy. Remembering that he was building up to that weight so it’s not as if he was fresh too

by Automation on Jun 18, 2008 12:20 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

yeah who cares, just make the announcement already

by rich on Jun 18, 2008 12:29 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Dana White can bench 315 whoopy! Hes what? 200 plus lbs? I know guys that are 170 benching 365 for REPS! 3×3 of course they are football players so all they do is bench and squat. I guess at least Dana is in shape and not a fat peice of crap like Gary Shaw!

by Chadx23 on Jun 18, 2008 12:42 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I will give dana props for that, pretty damn impressive. Here is my question though, even when I was playing football back in the day everyone always bragged about their bench. Why? so is a really fat chick falls on you while you are on your back you can lift them off? awesome! I’m 6’4 and have really long arms so i can about bench the equivalent of a 16 yr old girl, but I can throw a right hook harder than all those football players that can bench 350+. so why make that the pinnacle of muscular bragging rights?!

by MMAsubb on Jun 18, 2008 12:57 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

why is every 1 hating? 140kg is alot to bench alot of poeple cant do that.

Jenna Jameson is totally gonna leave Tito for Dana after watching this video.

by Toad on Jun 18, 2008 1:37 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

damn hes stronger than me(at the bench)

by the heat on Jun 18, 2008 1:47 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

It’s all CG. It’s a CG Dana or they are foam plates with metal sound fx! In fact I think that Dana is a cyborg!

by FXDFP on Jun 18, 2008 2:03 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

i wonder how much dana is weighing in at?

by sac165 on Jun 18, 2008 2:32 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Considering the amount of free time he has on a weekly basis to even do this kind of thing, I’d say it is pretty impressive.

by DirtyML on Jun 18, 2008 2:55 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

He’s sooo busy!? What?

by Can't wait on Jun 18, 2008 7:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

This is the only intelligent response so far.

Dana vs. Danny Abadi

by TABASCOsauce on Jun 18, 2008 4:53 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Never would’ve believed.. I’m impressed!

by Leeward on Jun 18, 2008 5:43 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

it wasnt dana, Bas stood in. its all about trying to scare the ufc’s compitition.

by killing joke on Jun 18, 2008 5:50 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

good for dana, now let the internet tough guy responses resume.

by the way i max at 875lbs with one arm….

by sooper822 on Jun 19, 2008 1:18 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

Good form on the bench press, and should be because he must have been lifting more or less regularly for the last 20 years, I guess. But those bicycle crunhes at the end were hilarious. Bench press: ok. Core strength and VO2 max: probably not so good…

by john deere on Sep 30, 2008 5:50 AM EDT reply actions   0 recs

the 14 reps at 225 is more impressive than the 315. and by the looks of it he could do alot more than 315

by ToolFanMael on Nov 17, 2008 8:57 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

damn that was good i bet he can do a lot more than 315 because not only did he get it up with ease he did a lot of reps before that with some pretty high weight
