nonsense. thompson squatted 855 and got a BS depth call. Siders had just competed in an intl ipf meet 8 days prior.I have no idea whether these are the only two who could do it, but to say that theres no one is intellectually dishonest, and to say its not close is silly.

Maybe you should take a class in reading comprehension. How much do Siders and Donnie Thompson weigh??? Karwoski weighed 240 pounds for that 826. So the only thing silly is you bringing up two guys WELL over 300 pounds and lumping them in with a guy who is 240 and still clearly out squatting them raw. [/quote]

Dont try to back out of this one, you didnt say that there is no 242er close. you said NOBODY. dont try to foist of your writing inability by claiming I lack reading comprehension. You didnt say that nobody is close to coan, because there are guys deadlifting over 900 - yet none of them is 220, and you didnt mention this.

curious.

[quote]Dont disregard the effect that a geared squat of over 1000 could have on his raw pull. Im not saying 870 is a number kroc could def hit, but i would expect his dl to be higher in a meet in which he did all his lifts unequipped

Kroc hit his best deadlift of just over 800 in a meet where he did not squat, or took a token squat (one or the other). And that was with a deadlifting suit on.

Know what you are talking about before you start calling people silly. Mkay?[/quote]

If that is the case, I was wrong, I was under the impression that he hit 810 in his most recent meet unequipped, but since im nowhere near certain of that, I concede the point.

Nonetheless, my original comment that your statement was silly stands as it was referring to your comments about squatting.

This was what I wrote. Pay attention…

There was in fact EMPHASIS on the fact that Kirk did that @ 242. If you missed it, your bad. Not mine. Because I do know of 800 raw squatters, but not at 242. So my point stands. I could have brought up the Coan 900 dead @ 220 but I used Kirk’s example because he did it most recently.

Kroc has worn his Metal deadlifting suit at all of his recent lifts. I couldn’t tell you what his best raw dead is because he’s always wearing that thing. Either way, he’s not even in the same galaxy as Kuc as a 242’er raw.

If your original comment “stands” it’s only because you’re flat out ignoring my point that these guys in those weight classes still aren’t being outlifted by anyone today. The raw lifts listed there are listed in weight classes. You know that right? So yeah, sillyness is all you.

I don’t know of a single guy walking the face of the planet that can squat 826 @ 242 raw

You also wrote this immediately before it: [quote]And without getting into a pissing match over what are the real records, I don’t see anyone hitting these kinds of numbers raw today for the most part.

All you have to do is look at the NERB to get an idea of what most guys are hitting raw. [/quote]

Putting it clearly in the context of absolute weight lifted. you can’t just parse what you wrote into the bits and pieces that you like. pay attention to what you write

Rep points for KBC!!

Mark Henry…?
As in the WWE wrestler Mark Henry…?

Yep, same guy. Strong as fuck. He was also pretty good weightlifter.
Some people say that if he had the work ethic of, let’s say Marius Pudzianowski, he would have been a legend in the strength sports. Not that the heaviest raw squat ever is something to sneeze at.

@KBCThird: The argument wasn’t about soccer, I still can’t understand how someone can be “World Champion” without winning World Championship. And no, the FIFA Club World Cup doesn’t have the same weight as an actual club World Championship, if there was one, sometimes the finalists play with much of their B-team, because the starters are exhausted after the regular season, national and international cup tournaments, Champions League or Copa Libertadores, etc.

I know the argument (for what its worht i dont consider this an argument, jsut a fun little debate)wasn’t ABOUT soccer, but that was the example used by Comrade to which I responded. If we’re going to use soccer as the analogy, I will be the first to say that I am somewhat limited because of my unfamiliarity. But with regards to your statement “how someone can be “World Champion” without winning World Championship” I respond that IN THE ABSENCE OF AN OFFICIAL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP for that particular brand of play, it is not unreasonable to consider the champions of the league playing at the highest level to be the de facto world champions, in my opinion

Then we agree to disagree, but it’s all good fun :slight_smile:

Back to topic, Konstantinovs’ recent deadlift is the best raw lift for the 308s, right?

89

Its pretty incredible how sports records grow, at one point a 500 squat was considered out of this world and not too long ago, now that number has doubled, and with quite a few lifter doing it. Perhaps 1500 is something that we’ll see one day.

90

HA… that list is depressing, I competed apf raw and my current goal is to get the raw world record @ 148(wpo)
I was thinking after that I would try to cut and go for an all time record in the 132’s unfortunately that is still 100 lbs heavier than the current wpo world record at 148

those are some huge squats in the lightweight divisions

lol@ these records are getting beat daily.

i guess you missed the part about Ed Coan deadlifting 901 pounds raw @220

and the only person beating it was Mark Henry, at the Super Heavyweight class by 2 pounds.

let that sink in then tell me how easy it is to break these records. give props where they’re due.[/quote]

Andy Bolton’s pulled like 947 raw.[/quote]

now 953/ 432.5kg

92

Didn’t Robert Wilkerson just break the raw SHW squat with an easy looking 975?

A lot of these have fallen very recently.

They have updated a lot of the more recent records except Stand Efferding holds the highest total in knee wraps at 275 if I am not mistaken.
