TomParkes89 said:who do people think will win max DL??? i find it hard to imagine Z loose that event but shaws 448 (i think it was) was disturbing!


Probably Z, but it depends what shape Terry and Brian are in. All 3 guys capable of pulling over 440 depending on conditions. Maybe need a pull on excess of 445 to decide a winner!

Getting better every year and still quite young. Has a strong over head and in good shape for most events. Good shout!

This is a good point. Has any final been so competitive? People might have their favourites but this year could be won by any of at least 5 people?!


It's the strongest lineup ever. Suppose you could said the same last year as well. Thing is, strongman is more mainstream than it was 10 years ago. The talent pool has risen and I think that atheletes are better in event techniques than ever.

I suppose you could say,the sport has evolved and I think it is great for any fan that is watching. Some of the strength feats and determination these gentelemen produce is amazing.

haha that would be fun! brians awsome and a great strongman and when i met him he was a reallly nice guy, but this mikenento is doing his case no favours


He seems a good enough guy in his interviews. Even though i have him slight favourite, it is far too hard to call. Lots of great Strongmen left!

I've said Shaw from the start. Though would love Terry to have a great final and get the win. Well done anyway Hixxy, from what I have heard you had great comp. You will go one better next year and get to the final!Your progress and potential is scary,well done!

Thor is a beast,be surprised if him or lalas don't win wsm in the near future. f**king talent of this sport is getting unreal. Look at the strength of some the guys on here who are entering local competitions,shows you how far strongman has come the last 10 or 15 years.Great for the fans to watch!

lowther said:From Derek Poundstone's Facebook:

'I have been receiving many inquiries regarding my absence at the 2013 World's Strongest Man competition. After my bicep tear in March at the Arnold classic I was unable to return to heavy training until July, leaving little time to prepare for the title I so badly desire. It is not my goal to merely compete at Worlds Strongest Man, its my desire to win Worlds Strongest Man. In light of these circumstances I have decided to focus on next years competition and allow myself time to fully recover from all of my injuries. I wish all of the competitors this year a safe and healthy competition!! I appreciate the support you have all shown me!'


I'm sure he will be back

Brian fans will soon be here to bully you now youve said that!

Let them bully me to. F*****g hope Terry nails it. Grin


Your right dannyboy, Terry all the way, could be his year. If he gets first on lorry pull and yoke,top 2 in deadlift, finishes at least top 3 or four in the rest,he will stand great chance. Going be a tough final. Nobody will dominate and win by more than 2 or 3 points imo

Shaw,z then Terry. Hopefully I got it back to front Happy

Simeon said:I think people who assume that Pudz automatically wouldn't be in the mix for the title these days are simply forgetting just how good he was at EVERYTHING


Agree with this

He had deadlifted 400kg (with a big ol hitch) and was amongst the top guys in squat/deadlift events. Yeah he did that 165 log at the end of a medley that only Z and Karlsen did I believe.
And lets not forget WSM 2009 when Shaw, Z, prime Poundstone et al were in the game and the events suddenly got much heavier than before, he still came second only for a second or two in the stones. That performance is why I think he would be well in the mix these days and still kicking absolute ass in some events. Sure, everyone else has progressed since then, but so would he have, it works both ways. Around same build as Lalas, and a much better mover (unless Lalas is really awesome which I don't remember that being mentioned anywhere?), why wouldn't he be able to up his static game and be slaying all kinds of dragons?


Good post. Still greatest wsm ever imo
