if mendy ever goes for the WPO raw record, make sure he actually pauses on his chest and waits for a rack command. i swear when he hit every one of his record lifts it was like he was just doing touch-and-go but made a deal with the judge that he'd yell "press!" at the right time so it was "legit".

i agree, his 715 was a touch and go lift.

WPO is becoming a joke.

Becoming? 8)

They pressure eastern European lifters to pay $3000 to lift at ONE meet. And then refuse to pay the prize money...

A disgrace.

They are pretty much done now anyway.  All of their best lifters with the exception of Andy Bolton and a few others have left for the UPA.  Keiran Kidder is finished.
