Arm-Wrestling - Bruno Sammartino vs Arnold Schwarzenegger

Both are in their prime. (Weight-lifting Prime, that is.)

Bruno has been cited to be able to bench-press 600lbs.

Arnold has been cited to bench-press 525lbs.

But there are more then just biceps to arm-wrestling, triceps and shoulders play a part as well.

Who would win?

Bench press isn't largely bicep dependent. I have no real opinion on this thread.

When did Bruno bench 600lbs?

You can see pics of Arnold lifting with Superstar Billy Graham to confirm his feats.

P.S. Superstar Billy Graham beats them both

Mark Henry beats them both.

Maybe, but Bruno was in a strongman competition with Paul ****ING Anderson, a man who back-lifted 6,270lbs. (The most weight ever lifted in HISTORY)

Also, in his prime:

"Sammartino made major headlines when he became the first (and only) man to lift 600-pound Haystacks Calhoun in a match and slam him"

"Later, his powerlifting prowess nearly earned him a spot on the 1956 U.S. Olympic Team, but was edged out by legendary strongman Paul Anderson, who outweighed Bruno by almost 70 pounds."
