Magnus, Mariuz, and good ol' billy kazmeier. oh yeah .....and ferrigno, lol

 

[IGNITE]

Not a Kaz fan at all. He was an absolute JERK to me, as he has been to so many people.

Magnus was a pretty nice guy.

B True

What do you mean by being a JERK, b?

Mariusz is my fav. I love my fellow Polack

No question about it. I started training seriously at his gym, we became pretty fast friends. Ultimate showman, kind and giving as you would hope your best friend would be. Met Maggi Ver there too, pretty nice guy, but not as outgoing. Saw magnus at the gym last week actually, he is training again but walking with a cane. Not sure what happened, anybody know?

Ok quit bragging about your training partners man.

I know magnus had some heart issues a couple years ago but not sure what the cane is all about.

My favorite had to be Johnny Perry. He was all about busting his ass during the contest then sitting back and having a beer afterward. Also he would always cheer on the other guys or give advice...Rest in Peace.
Kaz was a great strongman, but a total dick! Magnus Ver is a great guy! as well as a great strongman.
Hugo Girard is another one who is great at strongman as well as a great person.
I am not a big fan of Pudge. Dont get me wrong in contests that require you have alot of endurance as well as strength he is the man, but if you put him in a contest where their are alot of static brute strength events you will expose the chink in his armor. It contest like these Glenn Ross, Mark Phillipi and Savickas rule the day

I saw him on WSM recently where he said he'd had three lots of knee surgery.

 

[Mr. dB]

Hugo Girard just because he's so fucking big. Svend Carlson when he's on his game, because he always makes a good show of it. And Heinz Ollesch, despite the fact that he always flubs it in the finals, just because in the interviews he has a great attitude and would be the funniest guy to down some beers with.

 

[wtlftr]

MY Top 2 are
1. Magnus Ver Magnuson
2. Bill Kazmier

 

[DZLS]

Mariusz Pudzianowski.

The strongest, most lethal, most cut strongman. BB physque.
Hes a smart guy too not a meathead. Trained alongside him in my gym in the US. A very nice guy.

Mariuz gets my vote as well...

he epitomizes strength in my mind...
