I really hope a Brit wins this comp!


Hixxy 8th overall. Just finished 5th on yoke.

Eddie has improved so much. Just 0.3 seconds behind the best yoker in the world.

Paul Smith very unlucky to only be 6th on Yoke. Would have been 4th if half a second faster.

The fight behind Hall is very close.

What weight is the yoke?? It's probably lighter than Worlds!

Is Loz the best In the World? When did he last win yoke at WSM? I can't remember.

Hes not came across it in a final for a long while.
Apparently weight was only 420 today, though it was called 450 in all the build up.

Not sure. But with that kind of weight he is the best in the world. Thor is usually one of the best in the world at it but couldn't live with Loz in that event at ESM.

Makes Hall's second place even more of an accomplishment. It was all about speed. With a light yoke I would have expected to see him down in 5th at best.

Has anyone on the live feed mentioned that Ed had a hand injury at worlds yet?

The only notable Yoke match up I don't remember seeing with Loz is vs. Shaw. He's comfortably beaten Thor, Eddie, Terry, and Big Z in recent years.

The man must be made of f**king steel to have got straight up from that. Looked like a brutal impact.

30kg is a massive difference and would feel light for the bigger guys.

I doubt any would be going faster than 10 seconds. Loz generally beats anyone. i would think lighter weight would play to his advantage against the big guys.
