You don't see that too often. WOW.... I guess anybody can have an off day. I wouldn't expect to see it for a while from Ryan. He always seems to get lifts.

That's balls there. Dump 1080 and then att 1100. Ryan's amazing, even if he didn't get a lift. The 1000 looked like a toy weight.

Maybe it's just my angle, but the 1000 doesn't look like it touched. Looks a good inch away from his chest.

looks to me like he'll get that 1100 next time. and i agree with the above poster, even though that 1000 didnt touch, it looked like toy weight for him.

He gave 1100 quite a ride. I'm sure he'll hit it soon enough. No one is even close to catching him. Does Gene Rychlak even plan to compete in the near future? I haven't heard anything about him in about 6 months. I'm sure Mendy will make some pretty heavy attempts at his classic in a couple meets, we'll see if he can any of them out. Does anyone know if Ryan is still planning to compete in the Mendelson classic?

Oops, I meant to say a couple of weeks, not meets.

Submitted by Jason Centoni on February 3, 2008 - 4:28pm. » quote

Yeah I too would like to know if Gene will EVER try to enter the same meet as Kennelly ?? I doubt it though he has chance after chance but he just wont come out to play with Ryan . The thing that makes me so pissed is all the sh!t Ralchalk talks yet he does nothing but talk . I dont think Gene could hit a 800 lb bench even if it droped on him now days .. Powerlifting finaly has a true champion with Kennelly . The guy is strong as hell and just as cool as he is strong ...

They will both be competing at a meet together in March. I am sure they will have each other fired up and bring the best out of each other.

Then again Mendy may just get a lift in?

WOW!! It takes a man to get under that weight. Get'em next time Ryan.

Just so everyone knows, Ryan was trying to cough up a lung due to a severe cold the whole Kennelly team was suffering from. That just makes this more amazing!

So a lot of people whine about forza benches for some reason, at around my area, he is hitting these numbers on a forza bench. that was the fastest 1000+ ive seen. the man is the best bencher. he is soon going to have the next closer guy beat by 100lbs. i saw a video of mendelson where he said it, but i guess to qoute him, fuck with that
