Any predictions for the 154 class at the Arnold. I look for Vern Martel to be in the finals. Vern will be very hard to beat.

I think Vern will take the Arnolds this year. Devin usually gives him a heck of a fight, but I think Vern still has the advantage.

Gee Thanks Guys!!! But I do not think that this is going to be any picnic tournament. It comes down to how the draws come out ... it would just take me to be matched up with guys like Ray Hennericks, Simon, Devon or how about the fellow from England Steve Rodgers .... and I will be more than wore down. There is a number of pullers in this line up that I have never even pulled before. To me ... its for the fun and to see if I can fair well or not. After all ... I'm just a "one armed bandit" who comes into any event as a long shot up against fully able bodied guys. I believe there is always someone tougher out there ... never a for sure winner ... and anything can happen. There is going to be some great match ups in our class and I hope I'm there to pull for the second day as well. The other classes are just as loaded... and I am glad that I'm going to be there to see all these matches happen. This is such an "Awesome" event and so much to take in. It will be good to see you again Willie ... all the best to you and Boomer till then.

Call me crazy but after losing 3-0 this past weekend I'm guessing Simon is gonna have a chip on his shoulder bigger than his HUGE bicep.
I have nothing but confidence in Simon to make a big showing at the Arnolds to redeem his name.
I am also picking Andy Barker to win the 76's

Rick is funny, doesnt travel a lot...and is actually pretty shy, so sometimes what you see in person is not him, he is out of his element at a big meet.
Two years ago in training I could force him into a hook and beat him. Now, no way. The kid is freaky strong for that weight. sick.
