Konstantinovs Vs. Koklyaev

    ... and Andrei Belayev thrown in for good measure.

    This has the potential to be a pretty historic event.Konstantinovs has been posturing for a 1000lb+ deadlift for a while now, sending out training footage of ridiculous training lifts every few weeks, so perhaps Andy Bolton's record could fall to a much lighter man this Saturday.

    Anyone who follows strength sports know Misha Koklyaev as one of the biggest characters as well as the most accomplished all rounders out there. Throw in Belayev, a dominating force in powerlifting where you have to lift the weight yourself and you have some recipe.

    These kinds of shows are what's needed to improve powerliftings image and bring it in line with strongman. Shame the Americans are too busy white lighting their cousins in a federation set up by their uncle to pull together a big name event like this.

    Shame there's no squat though.

    By my calculations 4pm in Moscow is midday here?

    This looks class. Has Misha ever pulled more than 405 though? Can't see him beating KK.

    First ever 900+lb pull from Misha too I believe.

    Belyaev pulling over 4x bodyweight as a middle-weight. Insane.
