Check this out. They have been talking a little smack the last few years about who can deadlift more. both have over 800 pound deadlifts. This would be interesting if they can get it fixed up. I doubt it will ever happen, but it would be cool.

By the way, I saw Johnnie Jackson at the Arnold Classic, didn't get to meet him though because he was walking out, and he had the biggest back I have ever seen by far. He was in full offseason form, and he was huge. I mean he looked bigger than coleman. It was rediculous. But he was definitely not mobile.

I would think that Johnnie would own Ronnie (heh....that sounds funny) pound for pound.

I'd like to see it but I bet Ronnie won't do it.

Dan · 08-01-2005, 06:24 PM

Oh and he was not nearly as cocky as Ronnie would be if it were reversed

Trick D · 08-01-2005, 08:41 PM

I am sure Ronnie would be like. *Mike Tyson Voice* "Johnnie Jackson must be smokin' crack if he can beat me. This is a bodybuilding contest." He would probably say it even though it is powerlifting.

Also, rumor may be that Mr. Jackson was forced to do it by Muscletech so that they can go up against BSN who has been selling a hell of a lot of products lately. We will see.

Since RC has taped footage of his 805 DL, does JJ have any evidence floating around on the net? Cause I've never seen any.

I am still looking. It doesn't say how much he lifted in that event, but it was a lot.

Heh.....Muscletech is gonna send out some goons to break Johnnie's legs if he fails

Yea right, him and Branch Warren could take a goon squad :bigthumbu

Not even a still pic?

I'd take that.

Trick D · 08-03-2005, 02:15 PM

I looked forever... nothing I can find with the weight in his hand other than the one I posted before, but it doesn't say how much he lifted.

sword chucks · 08-03-2005, 02:28 PM

lol i was afraid ronnie would come on and start talking, i dont know how he would handle something like that but hes certainly not as articulate as johnnie

ronnie clearly beats hit squats and bench press though doesnt he? i dont know about deadlifts but i think it would be even

Trick D · 08-03-2005, 02:35 PM

to my knowledge ronnie should be able to take johnnie in everything but deadlift. Deadlift will be a battle between two titans!

sword chucks · 08-03-2005, 02:48 PM

wait- is it just deadlift or a full PLing battle?

also i think johnnie might have an advantage in the comp because he could peak his strength for it like those powerlifters do and ronnie would just be training regular

Trick D · 08-03-2005, 03:07 PM

I think it is just a deadlifting battle... but i could be wrong

LatsMakeTheMan · 08-03-2005, 05:19 PM

But from looking at Ronnie's training videos, I don't think his squats would count in competition, would they? When he was squatting like 800 pounds or whatever it was, he wasn't going to paralell.......at least not on the part of the video I saw.

sword chucks · 08-03-2005, 07:44 PM

no they were parallel, his knees just went forward
