Derek Pomana, born in 1966 and of Maori descent, is a former three-time world champion powerlifter in the 110 kilogram division. In 1996 at Salzburg he set a world record by bench pressing 255 kilograms, about 551.6 pounds, at a bodyweight of 110 kilograms, a mark that was beaten two minutes later. His article adds that, as of 2015, he holds the New Zealand record for a combined squat, bench press and deadlift total of 977.5 kilograms. The entry is short and gives no further biographical detail such as his birthplace, the federation behind his world titles or his other results, so none are stated here.
