Lots of swapping of last round weights in the 125 class in an attempt to win, but 2 guys pressed 315 relatively easy with marcus hirvonen winning on bodyweight.

Good finish - who waited around a few minutes to see Svensson's last lift turned down by the jury though? Eek

Yeh, it was quite an obvious dip which surprised me how it got 3 white lights.

When can we catch the next LIVE installment of this Exciting Competition ?


Tbh even as a big fan of powerlifting I find it hard to get excited about a bench only comp. I would be much more excited about DL only (especially the Andy Bolton challenge next year, going to be so many 850lb+ deadlifts in one day it will be insane!), but even still part of the point of pl is that is a three lift sport.
