@@xxblade.2272 You usually get points based on your placing in an event. First place in an event gets 10, 2nd gets 9 etc. While Mateusz was able to win 4 events, he only got 3 pts in the deadlift. Meanwhile Thor won 2 events but was still able to place top 2 or top 3 in ones he didnt win, so he had just enough pts to win the whole competition.
@@dantethunderstone2118 dude he is world class get real. He is not just fast, he holds the world record in Stone to shoulder and dumbbell press now please tell me how those events are not legit Strongman events.
Korosh Rostami I know he’s worldclass in strongman he’s literally my favourite competitor I’m just saying that if he wasn’t a strongman and he was sprinter he would be good at it
HernanG Pudzianowski was a monster but Matteusz ‘s opponent so much stronger.If Pudz race at 2010 against Shaw,Thor and prime Zydrunas he couldnt win any titles.I love so much his style but it is truth
@@Hamzasrsu Ure stupid. They were the strongest of their era , therefore comparing make no sense whatsoever.Different science used back then and now is/was the key. In other words , different types of steroids , less knowledge back then , than now.
Młody byłem oglądałem Pudziana ten kolega jest tak samo za wzięty i skromny jak Mariusz jesteśmy dumni z ciebie że mamy tak silnego Polaka szacunek i życzymy kolejnych sukcesow
Does anyone have more info on Pritchett's performance? He really seemed off, like he was sick or hurting, but he wasn't holding himself like he was injured. These guys are so tough you can't always tell though.
No, ale chyba jeszcze nigdy w historii strongman nie zdarzyły się zawodowy bez martwego ciągu. Może miałby większe szanse gdyby martwy szedł na powtórzenia? No i szkoda, że wyrwał mniej niż w Dubaju,a wystarczyłoby tu 5 miejsce w martwym i by wygrał. Oczywiście itak jestem zadowolony i trzymam kciuki aby kolejność na mistrzostwach świata się jednak zmieniła 😉
@Wiktor Suworow Dokładnie tak jak mówisz, słaba wydolność. Całe szczęście strongman to nie tylko konkrencje statyczne. Mateusz nawet nie potrzebuje być najlepszym w martwym, bo resztę konkurencji wygrywa w cuglach. Wystarczy że podciągnie martwy nieznacznie i będzie dla reszty game over.
@@yahyachafiq4112 Nah it wasn't that, the whole apparatus itself was unbalanced on Thor's side, hence every person on that side didn't finish. Either way, Mateusz would've won this event by a mile
@@MrTVx99 Sick that even after 40 years of international strength contests the management and aparatus handlers STILL fuck things up. Remember throughout the 80's and 90's the truck pulls were notorious for skewing the results of the contests. The solution? Go one at a time on the same truck in the same lane. Such a shame for the athletes.
Polish folks are freakishly strong. If he can just get his DL up to the typical standard amongst the rest, he can clutch enough points to take the win hands down.
wins 4/5 events breaks 2 world records still loses because deadlift same thing with boudreault in US qualifiers i dont think max deadlift is good for these competitions anymore honestly and i never thought i would say that
Mateusz who finished in the 2nd place got 22k dollars in the prize money. I think this is really no money for the amount of training, food, travels,.. these strongmen are investing. The prize money for the first place is 72k! I mean the difference is just too big but also this is not that big money.
cesteres I love how people can justify the low pay that the athletes get by saying “he has sponsors”. You mean the same sponsors who are paying the event an exorbitant amount of money to be exclusively sponsored by them? Just because you have supplemental income from sponsorships doesn’t mean that the athlete is being properly compensated. the events make money off of the backs of their competitor, people do not want to see the the G team of strength they want to see the A team with Shaw, Thor etc, that’s why they pay.
To some point of fairness, he does also get bonus money for breaking records. He broke the fram carry and the dumbbell press record. Should've been an extra $5k per.
It's good money. Enough in my opinion. Say what you want but paying people sometimes tens of millions just because they can run fast and do some gimmicks with a football or punch someone in the face is a ridiculous concept. 22k is a good prize. After all you don't HAVE to do this sport, you can do something else. Obviously if someone wants to pay them twenty times as much out of his own pocket it's fine.
If that was a rule Thor would benefit too. He'd have a second wsm title. He won 3 events in the 2014 final compared to Big Z 2 event wins. But he fucked up badly on the squat. So does he deserve to win? Ofc not. The strongest man places near the top on every event. Thor won two events, on the medley he placed 4 seconds behind Mateusz. Then went for the world record on the cyr dumbbell instead of matching Mateusz. So two events that could've ended differently right there. Mateusz is an absolute beast but the strongest man in the world doesn't come 8th in the deadlift, I'm sorry but no.
This is beautifull, im polish but when i see my compatriot so strong , when most of polish community was dreaming that one day polish will do a lot in arnold classic and be better than pudzianowski is like amiracle, plus he is so humble working out on his own . We are proud for him , pure steong Angel
In a previous competition this even was done across a flat surface and he mentioned that he only trains this even uphill. He trains on a slight hill because that's all that is available to him
It's because Thor carried horizontally in his gym and Mateusz carried a much heavier weight than this uphill for preparation. Mateusz is young and relatively poor he is just hungry and motivated you can feel it
@The Almighty i usually scoff when Thor complains about shit that he lost, like the Viking Press in '17, but in this even I think he was correct and there's something iffy about the left-hand frame. I know we like the wooden implements and all but it should probably be steel if there are two implements in a head to head. If it's a one off piece and people go one at a time it doesn't matter and could still be wood, but head to head has to be the same implement
These *polish Guys* , they are built for running with heavy weights in Hands(100s of kilos) Mariusz Pudzinowski[Dominator] Masteuz kleizwoski[Polish Terminatior]
Ale poszedł ,jak oglądałem przekaz na żywo, to aż szczena opadła. Nie spodziewałem się ,że Thor będzie miał aż taki problem. Które on w końcu miejsce zajął drugie? Bo miał nieduża stratę do Thora ,a oni we dwóch to była przepaść na resztą . Poza tym jakoś dziwnie to punktują , przecież Kielich wygrał więcej konkurencji .
If he could improve his static strength, he would have the makings of a future worlds strongest man. He clearly has the speed for any type of moving event as well as great grip, but his static strength, in particular deadlift which is a big event for strongman, isn't quite as good as the best such as Brian Shaw. I really hope he can improve it. I'd love to see him lift the big trophy

@drew13600 exactly that 4th place in deadlift ..may be bcz hafthor can also lift 310 lbs cyr dumbell and get 2 nd place ... 440kg deadlift and mateuz is unstoppable in any competition 🔥 polish power
How did he go from 1st to 8th after deadlift, honest question. I really have no idea how 7 people got more total points then him when he won the stone medley, wheel of pain, and didn't even come last in the deads. Also placed around the top 5 in bag over bar
