Martyn will show up, just growl/snarl at the log and yoke, and dominate everyone there.

The true and reigning UFC and Unified Boxing champ...

These competitions are dreadfully boring.

Lots of waiting and waiting.

This one moved very quickly last year (I watched the live stream) they are getting better.
The Arnold moves at a decent pace.

WSM is still very slow, as they are a TV show mainly, and is the way they produce it..

Cool, i've been to a few dozen amateur shows, they are so slow.

Only went to the Arnold once many years ago and it wasn't too bad.

Big Z looking decent, doesn't seem to be pushing too hard (Opted out after successful 420 lb. log-press, etc).
'Bag over bar' toss was way-off, that's where he lost tons of points.

Still beating some of the Younger guys, but looks to just be having fun w/ it.

Jerry is hurt, doesnt look good. Maxime looking decent so far, smoked everyone in bag-over-bar.

Top 4 guys looking Strong...

Some good names in that competition.  Love the older WSM videos from the past few decades watching guys come in as rookies and improve year by year.

Whatever happened to Martins Licis? Won WSM in 2019 at a young age and hasn't been able to compete since. Nerve damage?

He had a lot of serious injuries so he retired from competition.

He's been working on starting a gym and trying to get into Tv/movies.

He hasnt retired (yet). He took 2 yrs to recover from injuries he got in a car accident. He's doing the Rogue Invitational which is coming up soon...
