Cieri won the most prestigious single ply title in the World - IPF Worlds.

Celli set the 198 and 220 National Records in the USPF this year. One was later broken.

Well then Sparky, maybe you'd like to come get some?

1. Vote for whomever you like.
2. If you don't like a nomination, protest by not voting. In fact, get your OWN forum, and make up your OWN awards!

It shouldnt be a prest by not voting. you should add people that you might not like also.

maybe he should go challenge someone else and go head to head with another fed. nobody should have to subject themselves to the torture of going to the ipf and compete against one of there own boys. if they are so good, they could go elsewhere and show how badass they really are.

He didn't say he WAS badass - you said he WASN'T badass. SO, go to his, 'house' and show him you ARE badass.

LOL.

you said he was badass by putting them on this list. i have seen people who go to his house and in no way got a fair shake.

Oh sorry I meant two polls.

why do you leave good benchers out of this poll? i know if someone was an ipf lifter, they would be on this list. no matter how much they suck.
i agree, this poll sucks and it is bias.

Joe Ceklovsky amazes me the most. A 600lb paused press at 148lb!:O

He got my vote with that one.
