do you have any idea what his weight was there?
if he was competing in the 14's, 23's or even the 32's then that's not a bad pull
but word has it that's he's a huge fucking douchebag
and what's was his bench at this meet, any idea?
He was in the 67.5 class or around there, so it was like a double bodyweight pull, so it wasn't horrible, but it wasn't great. I don't hold it against folks when they don't put up good numbers, as long as they don't claim to be something they're not. His bench was in the low - mid 200's I believe, squat was similar to deadlift.
Lyle isn't so much a douche bag, just doesn't stop till there is clear winner if he thinks he's right, he doesn't care about not burning bridges.
If instance, he had that blow up with Rippetoe over those pictures were they tried to claim that the kid was low double digit body fat, when he was certainly not.
With Norton, Layne claimed something with no real scientific backing as fact, instead of theory. Lyle basically said show me proof, Layne came back weak, then pulled the "I am bigger then you card", then when he was still losing, he had them block and delete most of the back and forth. I think you can still pull a bit up on google though.
