The fact that Russ came out and hugged Jurins after he beat him is such great sportsmanship. Really top class attitude and respect for his competitors and the sport as a whole. Russ knew that Jurins deserved the win after that deadlift.
Russ third squat looked legit af. But that’s powerlifting for you. Props to Jurins, i don’t like sumo but he actually has a relative rom j like many. Good on him
Honestly, there should be a digital way to judge depth. Ie stick a place maker on the hib crease and the knee joint or something, and let it be digitally determined.
probably not the right place to discuss this but it's crazy that some dudes in the 74kg class outbenched all of them by a large margin. All of them got crazy deadlift tho. Can't believe jurins went for 350kg with a huge aura.
bench is highly specialized, there is a 69 kg guy benching 400 with no arch and no extreme wide grip, being big you can power thru squats and deadlifts , but arms are the weakest part of powerlifting
Jurins crying at the end got me the passion he has i aspire to be on the main stage so much ive been powerlifting since i started training which is about 9-10 months ago with a 410 total (gym lifts im still training to comp standard) at 71kg
Jurins is an absolute legend. This event was spectacular for powerlifting history. WLM, as usual, perfectly executed the media coverage. The build up, the unsuspecting advances, the absolute hype, and the roller coaster of emotion of watching this event live and knowing the story is perfectly captured here. Well done folks
Based on Jurins post comp interview he thought of pulling 360ish for the win but ended up pulling 350 conservatively. So regardless if the jury counted russ’ 3rd squat still a huge win for jurin.
@@dalumfitnessphnot the case. If Russ last squat counted, that changes every lift after. Russ would have had nearly a 20KG lead. Every bench attempt and deadlift after would have had added pressure. Yes the last lift moved, but keep in mind what an extra 10KG would have felt like when pulling for the win. Even Jurins said it “I had to pull that in order to beat Russ” If he had to pull more under the moment, anything could have happened. Did you forget what happened at last year world against Delaney? He missed his final lift.
@@jason24cf we cant do assumptions here dude. Yeah. What ifs. But if you see how the 3rd pull jurins was, its pocket attempts. Also if the squat were counted, just 9kg lead and Jurins can pull up to 365. :)
@@WhiteLightsMedia312.5 on squat, 190 on bench and 355 or 360 on deadlift are my guesses. Hard to tell though and of course I’m sure if he pushed harder on one of the lifts it would come at the detriment of another.
Orhii’s third squat looked plenty deep to me. I am shocked that the jury overturned it, evidently of their own accord. If anybody has video of that squat from different angles, please share. I would like to be persuaded that Russ didn’t get a raw deal.
Man as much as I like Russ and I do think that last squat should've flown, Jurins was going to break his limiter on that last pull no matter what. That was already a 15kg comp PR for him, I don't think another 7.5 would've mattered. Hats off to Jurins, the strongest garage dad that existed
Props to Jurins! Amazing lifts and raw emotion. I loved rewatching this, feels even more epic with the way wlm produced it. Man, Russel looks incredibly disappointed, dont think I've seen him like that. I don't follow him closely but I always thought he was a bit arrogant and didn't care. You also love to see him congratulate Jurins after that massive lift. Really changed how I view him.
They gave it to Jurins because he never turned his back on the sport and was there year in year out and Russ wanted to come back for just the 4 year cycle and that’s why they didn’t count that last Squat cuz depth wasn’t an issue the announcers even questioned it
La mejor batalla de toda la competición. Pero seamos honestos, Kengamu mejoró más de 50 kilos desde su ultimo mundial, con 34 años, lo siento, pero ahí hay algo detrás.
@@esportsfever9318 look at it this way, on bench for example some people bench better with their feet planted while others like only their toes digging into the floor yet the latter is not allowed in a lot of powerlifting comps.
I wish austin perkins would have went all out because he could have beaten the 83. I think it was cool to see russel give props though. I know thats gotta be hard to do when you are that competitive.
Honestly, If I could guess why he doesn’t he has done conventional deadlift for most likely sense he played football so about 10 plus years. Also for his 8 years of competition he has done. It would be pretty cool to see him switch but I mean he has gotta very comfortable with it and has worked really hard on technique, it would be very interesting to see what he could do if he did do that Change
but im confused Jurins seemed he could have lifted that weight so why did he wait until the end to do a big boost in weight? couldnt he have done around that weight from the start n try to push higher? just a bit confused about that like he purposely did a lower weight to play with the numbers then do a big lift for more points at the end. First time watching worlds so I dont know how things work.
It's about lifting to win. Jurins doesn't want to push for a weight that he "might" be able to hit but is closer to top end then something goes wrong and he's screwed. Especially in the context that this is the strongest Jurin's deads have ever been the coach's honestly didn't have data for how Jurin's dead will show up on the day.
Russ’s third squat getting called for depth is crazy
depth is depth, bro is high, as always
@@74_pelicansnormally I’d agree but that replay shot .. idk looks to me like his hip crease is below his knee.
@@josephbagert7501 russ got robbed, happy for Jurin's though solid dude
all his squats are pretty borderline, it’s just interesting the third got called when all of the attempts were the same
@@greyghost4471borderline what..? because he’s squatting with good depth, this shit gotta be a joke.. how fucking lower is he supposed to go..?!
This has got to be one of the most hype round of final pull attempts to grace the sport
Both jurins' 350kg and ena's 405kg attempt are wild!!
@@WhiteLightsMediafirst music?
Bro that raw clip at the end is nuts. So emotional 😭😭
we had to put it in!
@@WhiteLightsMedia too right
The best thing is watching russ hugging Kengamu with a smile in his face. That's the spirit of this sport.

"you just beat the greatest 83 of all time!"
"no, THIS is the greatest 83 of all time"
😭 goddamn what a moment
Sheffield is gonne be so exciting to watch
it's gonna be wild. reckon we'll see a russ wildcard?
@@WhiteLightsMedia currently he is leading the second round
@@WhiteLightsMediaMost definitely

the jury is hatin too much bro he sunk that squat let's be fr 💀
it was legit for me,but jurins still had lots of kgs in the tank than he did 350 it was easy af [russ actually did with a little kgs in the tank]
Honestly, there should be a digital way to judge depth. Ie stick a place maker on the hib crease and the knee joint or something, and let it be digitally determined.
sumo for clowns🤮🤮🤡🤡

Yeh… the best 83 bench only would’ve placed 6th in the 74. That’s embarrassing
They used that extra 10kg only for their legs 😂
it is crazy!! ever since gibbs left and owen hubbard isn't at the top, the benches are pretty low!

That drugs for you
Love the behind the scenes love the new content hwo you have upped the quality a notch everything is so peak
thank you so so much! We're doing our best
Crazy we got the 66KG battle and thought that was the top, and not two days later we get this!!! Sport is insane!

@@dalumfitnessph what you just did is an assumption. The same thing you are telling me not to do, you are doing. You do realize that?
Great video, your edits really capture what powerlifting could be as a mainstream strength sport
Jurins had so much more in the tank on every single lift, made all his 3rd attempts look easy. What a beast!

Russ def hit depth man idk what they saw
:(
That was like a bad NFL call forsure
You just beat the king of the 83s of all time
No, this is the great 83s of all time
yes
Yeah sumo. Who would've guessed 😂
I love this video. The look oin his face when he just finished was just raw. Then the emotion came through. Kia kaha, Kia māia, Kia manawanui.

did you see it live?

Oh man this was brilliant
That deadlift battle at the end was an epic thriller!
sumo for clowns
To be fair, even with russ 3rd squat being approved, kengamu had the margin to win it. That said, russ's 3rd squat was valid.
So proud of Jurins! Go GB!

Que batalla 🔥brutal ✨
If eno did that it would have been insane
We turned up too❤
Phenomenal video as always WLM
Why do they let two different deadlifts go against each other ?
Great question
That ending interview has me laughing like a mf🤣 Jurins is a funny guy
honestly he's hilarious! If you want more jurins, you can always watch the career breakdown we shot with him!
Russell's squat was on point, why he got overruled
Jury is stupid and blind. It was obviously below parallel.
ipf judges are strict asf. russ got overruled on depth and i thought they were tripping but he just BARELY missed depth
jury thought it was high
Russ got hoed man
@@WhiteLightsMedia more like the jury was high 😂
I’m not sure how Russ’s squat didn’t qualify but I’m happy for the Brit!!
Pausing at russels 3rd squat in the bottom.. thats DEPTH.. lmao
I'll be there one day ! 😤😤
Wow what a battle 💪🏽
They gave it to Jurins because he never turned his back on the sport and was there year in year out and Russ wanted to come back for just the 4 year cycle and that’s why they didn’t count that last Squat cuz depth wasn’t an issue the announcers even questioned it
crazy 💣
Russ pulled more when he competed in Korea … .. that’s third squat attempt looked good to me maybe I’m wrong
If Simeone Is discussing for the third russ's squat attempt, his heels come off the ground during his bench attempts, jurings deserved it
La mejor batalla de toda la competición. Pero seamos honestos, Kengamu mejoró más de 50 kilos desde su ultimo mundial, con 34 años, lo siento, pero ahí hay algo detrás.
GB pulled that for family i no it!
It's insane how strong people are getting. Wow!
it really is unbelievable!
What's with these bench, they are so light compared to lower classes.
They have to seperate sumo and conventional
100%
Without doubt
is there any restriction to do sumo for some lifters ?
@@esportsfever9318 look at it this way, on bench for example some people bench better with their feet planted while others like only their toes digging into the floor yet the latter is not allowed in a lot of powerlifting comps.

russ pulling conventional deadlift while everyone else pulling sumo...lets be real...this a win for russ
wtf we have to do to look like russ with only 83kg man this guy build is from another planet
be 5 ft 5 on a good day
Wow!!
I don't understand why russ refuses to do sumo

Prolly just stronger with conventional
If he could do more sumo he would, simple as that
Because sumo isn't always easier. He can't come close to his conventional max pulling sumo
@xRaffer he did it for fun a few years ago, and he was 75 pounds off
Hard word pays off
