      Since we're on the topic of MMA. Can we get a Mariuz Pudzanowski then/now comparison?
      I know he's had to dropped body weight. But just wondering if he's still pushing iron? Like he was 20 years ago...I do believe he has a fight coming up 🤔

    I’ve always wondered how strong Jon Jones is. People say strength doesn’t matter in a fight, but I was certain he’d have to be strong to be so dominant

      Strength and speed with limited ability but a quick thinker will win a lot of fights, even against someone in the gym all year long. In coordinated sport fighting, speed and ability are the primary sources used for victory, but bruit strength available in the blink of any eye still wins a lot of sport fights.

    That zercher squat is probably pretty useful for MMA clinching and grappling. One of the first times I’ve seen an application for zerchers beyond ‘unorthodox lift = funny’.
    His pull-ups were utilising kipping. Not a good indicator of his pull-up strength when so much momentum becomes involved.

    Jon is very strong despite how his body looks. It’s typically the first thing his opponents mention. I think Chael Sonnen said it was like wrestling with a lion.

    Haha, I was a HS and college wrestler and of course you have to be strong, but not the stringest, to be at a championship level, but the stamina wrestlers/fighters have far outweighs those other two factors....those athletes have to be switched on foe a long time, wrestling 6min matches, UFC 15-20min. And of course skill and athleticism are the most important factors...Jones is the greatest UFC fighter ever, and is the total package.

    For an ectomorph, he's obviously very strong. Not quite elite, but far above average.
    I'd like you to do videos of Evander Holyfield and George Foreman.
    Foreman was never a gym guy, but clearly he was very powerful. It would be interesting to see what you could dig up.

  • @aldrogo7510
    @aldrogo7510 Před 10 měsíci +8

    Jones doesn't have good leverages for powerlifting but I'm sure he has insane core and stationary/holding strength for grappling. Fabrício Werdum was a great MMA fighter but I remember reading about his workout regimen and thinking he had surprisingly low gym numbers for heavyweight (sorry I can't remember the specifics but it sounded like the average joe could "work in" with him) although to be fair the article mentioned he was new to strength training.

  • @up2me967
    @up2me967 Před 10 měsíci +4

    That's very solid given he's leverages. If he's natty is kinda sick tbh. This strength standards are full on half repping liars and massive ped users. This is very very sick given he's a fighter not a lifter wcusada on he's case

  • @haVocHWC3
    @haVocHWC3 Před 10 měsíci +5

    From a purely lifting standpoint, I'm pretty close to Jon Jones's strength. I'm 6'0, 280lbs. I've hit a 355lb bench, 635lb deadlift (w/straps) and a 545lb squat. I've been training weights seriously for a little over 3 years now.

  • @ThePitPony
    @ThePitPony Před 10 měsíci +1

    After a certain amount of muscle mass on your particular frame and extra muscle doesn't help at all.
    Fighting ability is an acquired skill.
    Most people who can bench 500 lbs can't punch that hard as they are too stiff to rotate the hips,torso and shoulders/pecs.
    They also usually lack coordination too,as well as have terrible stamina.
    .
    Thats why the sole focus on strength exclusively is rather stupid and is guaranteed to end badly,being overweight,unfit,injured and as bad as a sedate individual.
    We see it all the time in over 40's/50's powerlifters,strong but absolute potatoes athletically.
