People seem to be throwing a lot of doubt on Tom, considering his most recent results are defending his Britain's title, finishing 3rd at the Arnold's, and taking his world's title back from Mitch. He seems like he's focused on trying to win everything he shows up to this year

@stephenhagen8976 17 күн бұрын

The doubt is from history. He used to use giants live as only training and chance to meet the fans. Now he's focused on the big four, and seems to be more open to really going all out on the other shows. Excited to see it, but not everyone is the same on how they can hold strength.

This one is so tough to call because guys are probably peaking for SMOE, so we don’t know how much they put into these events, but there’s enough overlap that I think it’s impossible to look past Tom and Mitch for top 2. 3rd will be Evan or Ragg. I have to give it to Tom for the exact reason you said, he needs to be done by at least 2pts to even have the opportunity to lose

The only reason he got 3rd is because the scoring system for the Axl and Stones (specially stones) was SO bad this year and half the field got injured at about the 3rd event too.

@@crazy10bears I would put money on it he never wins the Shaw Classic, The Arnolds or the Rogue Invetational. I think because of his build he benefits from physics more than most and in pure strength events, he is lacking behind others. Would you rate him as top 5 in deadlift? squat? viking press? farmers walk? a hercules hold? I wouldnt, but put him in events where leverage is important and hes right at the top of the lists. He has improved, but I dont think he'll ever be good enough in enough events to win those heavy lifting comps.
