Kaz would have destroyed Pudz in an 80s era WSM. Today though it would be a different story. Completely different contest.

pudz has totaly revolutionised strongman,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,all get a grip please!

I used to love how the commentators would state that Kaz had LAZER-LIKE focus...haha. He was a VERY intimidating man. Watching him press that 385 pound log over his head like it was a twig and dead lifting over 1000 pounds of silver dollars TWICE WHILE injured. I had so much respect for that man.

Paul Anderson in with a shout?

HAhahaha... yeah, I like how the guy that's won it for like 5 years straight doesn't make the top 5
HAHAHAHaha.... epic retardation on your part.

Yes by all means Paul Anderson. That list of 4 strongmen does not go very far back in strongman history. Have to consider all the men and records going back to the late 1800's to be fair. And all those old timers without the aid of chemical enhancers or modern training equipment. All solid or shot loaded BB's and DB's back then. Very awkward to lift. Even trained lifting full barrels. Some of the old time German, Austrian and French strongmen hosted unbelievable weight. Their diet was pretty much the same. Beer before, during and after workouts. A lot of training "gym's" where near, or in, beer halls.
-
King Kamali and his spotters gotta be up there.
-
arthur saxon would smoke all of them with modern training and dieting not to mention enhancers.
-
Shit!........ we have guys on here that would smoke those 4 weaklings.

;) The combiation of those 2 lifts was over 440 pounds ! The man was a true FREAK ! he himself was under 200 pounds ! It was called the double handed anyhow ! He would bent press ( yes bent press ) with one hand the 330 pound barbell and clean the 112 pound kettle bell and hold them both over head ! F---king nutty strenth ! :o

Our own Onlyme is also quite strong. Not just that, but he also once sat next to Jonsey from Police Academy at a charity event. That's hot.

all of you have to admit that pudz is truly a remarkable strongman, who has revolutionized what it means to be a strongman.

I reckon Pudz has to be on the list. His deadlift is pretty unreal, I don't realistically think he would lose against those 80s guys, his technique is seriously good on everything accept the Fingals Fingers where he often has enough power to make up for it anyway. His speed is sick on almost everything though, and 4 wins cannot be overlooked or understated.

There's a dude on MD who does wrist curls with Dave Palumbo's torso. NO LIES.

Kaz admited in 2001/2002 that Pudzi was one of the best evcer in strongman events (I think it was in South Africa). Inform youself properly

Disagree with Geoff capes. Rest could be argued yes

you all=wrong..
according to wwf..mark henry is the strongest man in the world....

Why? He is British like yourself, you should support your fellow countrymen.

I am Irish. 'Britain' is also not a country ;)
That would be like saying support michael jackson or George bush...they are american

Castleberry would be up there. ;D
Nah seriously, Pudz by a country mile.
-
1-Paul Anderson-strongest man who ever lived.So dominant the Russians wanted him banned from the olympics.
2-Mark Henry-953 squat no suit,903 deadlift,olympic weightlifting team,snatched the thomas inch overhead.
3-Kazmire-enough said
4-Garry Taylor-British powerlifting champion,olympic lifting chamion,worlds strongest man winner and a national level bodybulder.jerked pressed behind the neck 545.

Savickas is far stronger than Pudz, that's a fact.

I never said it was, I said you were British, people from the United Kingdon(such as yourself) are generally referred to as "British", true ja?

hey Billy did you ever see the issue of MILO where they went and filmed Gary Taylor training? the guy did a casual 700x3 olympic squat rock bottom, inclined 455 for 3, jerk pressed 500 and did some 100 pound db front raises all in the same workout as some kind of demo, dude was a beast.
-
Not people from Ireland my friend, they are not referred to as british however many people do adopt british nationality here.
-
Northern Ireland is part of the UK is it not?
-
Dual nationality is in operation here. I am Irish. Thats why we can get Irish passports etc
-
Savickas is far stronger than Pudz, that's a fact.
Actually yeah I forgot about him - Savickas definitely is the better of the two.

Glenn Ross potentially in static events.
Dominic Filious could have been a real great strongman...he lacks heart or something

No one has answered my question? Goudy of all people! What about the tubby fattie Benedict Magnusson? You were drooling over his amazing pectorals in the other thread. Not even a mention in this thread? I'm surprised! ::)

yes something is not right in this guys head or something, the guy is 6-6 440 yes not 340 but FOUR40, he DWARFS all the other competitors and probably has the largest muscular arms ever in the world but he always competes like he has down syndrome. what a shame
-

What i said was that by no means was he small. He looks huge and also fat but you can tell he trained by his arms and lats and shoulders. To deny that is insanity Mr 35" legs.
JOHN MATRIX....he has no confidence or something. Seems to stop when things get tough. Huge beyone belief

The guy was amazingly strong.I remember in the WSM when that samoan guy pressed some weight and did a dance after he got it,then Taylor took like 20lbs more and pressed it like a toy and mocked the guy.Had he not gotten hurt,he would have won more WSMs.Plus his build was on par with Marius'.Unreal traps,pecks,delts.Truly an all time great and VERY underrated.
Anytime a guy can go from strength sport to strength sport and be world class,it just shows pure strength.Guys like Henry and Taylor are great at powerlifting,olympic lifting,WSM[Henry won the Arnold one year]and Taylor even bodybuilding,thats a sign of greatness.Henry is now going to try and break grip records.There is nothing either of these guys cant do.
One thing about Anderson.The guy squatted 900 three times a day for a month at exhibitions raising money for his boys home.He did this with dress pants on and dress shoes.No gear at all.Think about that, 900 three times a day for a month.

To answer your question.
A great PLer does not make a great strongman. E.g Ed coan would get beat easily by a 2nd tier strongman. Despite maye having teh same or greater gym lifts
-
Calm down Goudy, the guy was generalizing.....

However,most of the great strongmen come from powerlifting histories.Eddy wouldnt do well,because he is a midget[he admits this].

Clearly to do strongman you need certain physical abilities.Lets face it,many powerlifters have long left any athletic ability behind.I actually think Olympic lifters have an advantage because its a much more athletic sport requiring speed.Powerlifting is simply about strength.

Koklyaev and in previous years Bergmanis from latvia proved this
