Arnold Classic Middleweight Results

[cuntos]

I've just got off the phone with my brother and here are the results.

1st Matt Kroczaleski 420-280-332.5 = 1032.5 (925-617-733 = 2276)
2nd Dondell Blue 425-285-320 = 1030 (936-628-705 = 2270)
3rd Jesse Kellum 385-317.5-305 = 1007.5 (848-699-672 = 2221)
Kyle Robertson bombed on the squat with 430 (947)
Travis Mash also bombed on the squat
CHris Ox Mason bombed on the deadlift

Apparently the judging was tough this year. Blue went for 330 (727) for the win, but lost control at the top (maybe didn't lock out, maybe lost his grip, not sure).

Highlights were Jesse Kellum's monster bench and the fact that Matt Kroczaleski didn't even wear knee wraps! Awesome stuff!

now that would be worth seeing no wraps

Freyduns ipf numbers from last year in single ply would beat all those totals (1037.5kg) and he's a decent pull too 370kg!

Would be interesting to see what some of the other ukrainian guys like freydun could total in the WPO, Kutcher has already shown his exceptional talent!

Good point Nick R. Freydun was awesome. The biggest 100k lifter I've ever seen. Very thick.

And don't forget that Ed Coan's lifting at 100k was miles better than Freydun's, but the latter's bigger bench (295 I think) got him the WR total. Coan used crappy old suit and wraps too!

[Nick R]

Kutcher is surely gonna do a 1000kg total this year! thats awesome (is he still a 75?)

Yeah coan benched 230 or more raw and squatted 400+ in a inzer z suit (ridiculous!:o )
