Franco putting up 405 on incline...pics?

[BigGreen]

I'm *convinced* I've seen a picture of Franco putting up 405 on the incline, and, whether I was mistake about the picture or not, i have little doubt that he could have done so. I have, however, a particularly assholish friend that insists it would have been an impossibility for Franco to get 405 on the incline and refuses to believe otherwise until he sees a pic. Pumping Iron offers no such evidence, so I'm desperately trying to track down a picture. Anyone?? Please help me shut this jerk up permanently.

A guy his size that would be no problem. I use to nail 350 and I am no where near his size.

For sure. The problem is that my contrarian friend refuses to believe it without pictorial evidence.

I emailed him with those same numbers linked from Columbo's own website and his reply was, "I don't see any record for 'incline press' on there; maybe you linked me to the wrong page?" You can probably see now how badly I want to shut this kid up with a picture that I could have sworn I'd seen before. I've been looking EVERYWHERE.

franco is one of the strongest pound for pound lifters ever to walk the earth. lifting just over 2x his weight on incline is very impressive but its not anything that an educated person on the subject would think is impossible. your friend sounds uneducated on the subject and i think youd have a better power lifting talk with drywall IMO.

ignore the twat, what difference does his ignorance make?

Franco was very strong and had short arms. I wouldnt question it at all.
