and can you imagine Pacquiao or Mayweather pressing 200-250lbs
They bench press; they do allot of workouts and it don't matter what they bench cause they do such strength training that the average person wouldn't even know what they were doing
I'm sure they do bench press but that doesn't help you with fighting, that's just for their personal figure and muscle tone.
They do. Some heavy, mostly medium and light weights with high reps. Bench press builds muscle and that muscle becomes an armor that absorbs shocks from reverberating all through out the body. Long story short chest muscle is big. Think big armor and power to punch through. Pacquiao and Mayweather will probably do 200lbs easily.
Not usually. Most that I know at least don't lift any weights because it makes it harder to cut weight when you are getting ready for a fight. Also most weight lifting like bench pressing don't add muscle you need for fighting. Personally I was told not to lift weights and I am just an amateur. And the pro boxers I train with don't lift any weights.
