Member 3486, 246 posts SQ 230, BP 160, DL 250640.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Anybody think he's gona do it at worlds this year, jst watched him deadlifting at the arnold. Pound for pound he must be the strongest bloke on the planet, he's only 330 compared to blokes like brian shaw who are 440 and he can pretty much match them in strength | ||

 P.S must learn to deadlift Member 3457, 700 posts SQ 230, BP 180, DL 235645.0 kgs @ 148.5kgs UnEq | Be cool see him win it, but the standard now is insane. So many guys in contention especially when the bigger guys are as athletic as they are. | ||

 in real life im massive like big fridge Member 1317, 7144 posts SQ 220, BP 147.5, DL 290657.5 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq | anything is possible but personally i belive he had his chance in 08 pound for pound he maybe be one of the strongest but tht counts for s**t in the WSM no doubt he is one of the top strength guys but personally i think tht there are a number of athletes in front of him jenkins shaw z hollands | ||

 technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | Whether or not he's lb for lb strongest guy on the planet is pretty irrelevant Too many guys better than him now for him to ever win it imo Shaw, hollands, loz, Jenkins, big z would all have to have a bad day.for him too win | ||

Aiming for a 250 squat by the end of 2012 Member 1989, 3168 posts SQ 240, BP 140, DL 270650.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | As much as I would like to see him win WSM I don't think he will. I agree that pound for pound he is probably one of the strongest guys around but there are so many monsters around now and he hardly ever seems to be able to repeat his other performances at the world's. He looked to me like he was struggling last year. But this is strongman, anything can happen. | ||

 Grass fed Member 1147, 7710 posts SQ 220, BP 185, DL 272.5677.5 kgs @ 113kgs UnEq | He did just come 2nd at the Arnolds Imo that is his best chance of a big title However, some non height based events at the worlds and he would be there or there abouts | ||

If it was axle, yoke, farmers, DL, stones + a medley, none of which are height based, bar maybe stones, and he'd still be nowhere near imo | ||

He is pudz.....but not as good He just did finish above most of them at the Arnolds, granted weird events I think he has come in with injuries to wsm in recent years too Again, not saying he'd win, but I could see him being top 3, with the super tight way things are | ||
