Apparently he, and others, are frustrated with the ever increasing weights at the Arnold's.
Or something like that

I have to say that since changing to last year's format, my interest in the Arnold's has dropped.

The old format was static, but at least had some variety in the stones and yoke. The Classic Apollon's axle had, to me, become something of a trademark event - why they binned it I have no idea.

And axle clean? What a f**king horrible event to watch. Seeing guys 'row' 177 or 197kg up themselves is not fun. It looks unathletic, painful and, frankly, crap.

Let's start a Dorian Strongman Classic instead. We have all Europe they'd be f**ked.

Probably a combination of injury risk vs doing another 4 comps in the 2 months after and getting paid well (along those lines anyway), and having to put on a load of bodyweight and then lose it for SCL/WSM comp performance. He's won it enough times, if he doesn't want to do it he doesn't have anything to prove to anyone. New athletes and strongman title contenders appear all the time, as in all sports, you can't expect the old warhorses to be as active as the young guns all year round.
