as always your pictures are awesome.
Mike I want to thank you and Chris for your thoughts and Prayers at this time. I Knew I could come to you for prayers to get me through this weekend. My mom wanted me to stay and wrestle for Dad. I gave it a good shot. I will miss him. Thank You.

You mean elbow elevating the shoulder correct? And I agree why isn't this rule ever enforced, this goes almost hand in hand with the shoulder coming accross the centerline which happens often with people who press but rarely gets called

And I agree why isn't this rule ever enforced, this goes almost hand in hand with the shoulder coming accross the centerline which happens often with people who press but rarely gets called i mean when you go below table and near half way of your humerus bone is the part that is in contact with the pad,this causes a back pressure as strong as your body weight that hangs below table,and your hand gets higher than your natural forearm height because your elbow is an inch above the elbow pad. |

Engin, doesn't the WAF rule say the upper arm in a decline in the losing position? If so, George was pretty neutral in that picture

If so, George was pretty neutral in that picture ITEM 4 2) Competitors cannot drop the competing shoulder below the level of the elbow pad when in a neutral or losing position. This will be considered a dangerous position. The neutral position defined as the starting position down to 2/3 of the way to the losing side of the table. The humerus bone of the competing arm will not be inclined down and therefore elevating the elbow and dropping the shoulder below the elbow pad. |

Engin, you do realize in that last picture that George's arm is at a much smaller angle than the other guy? The other guy is completely stretched out and is MUCH lower than George. By the way, it didn't work for him. As far as Michael Todd doing it, he looked just like the guy pulling George. He was all stretched out and it looked like the only way to pin him would have been to break his arm. Norm Devio and Ray Darling have done the same thing over the years. To me, George does not look ANYTHING like this and IF George is strong enough to get in that position, he should be able to pull from there. He doesn't START like that. If the other guy could have stopped his "UP" pressure, then George wouldn't have been able to get there in the first place. The man is just STRONG. Give him what he is due after 9 consecutive Arnold Classic titles. RESPECT !
