Please never stop these, what you are doing for the sport of powerlifting is what's helping it grow so much. You have no idea how much I rewatched last year's battle of the 93s.

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

That’s so kind of you to say 🥺 We’re doing our best! Will get out more from worlds for sure, hopefully we’ll be able to make it a consistent thing 😄 Really inspiring hear you say so man! That 93 video meant a lot to us and inspired us to keep going!!

[@Blackbereh]

The video we needed. So much controversy in this weight class. Calls on Taylor’s last squat and deadlift, Tim’s deadlift overturned to good. Can’t believe only 3kg between all of them at the end.

[@capnmecrunchys1885]

I think Taylor got completely robbed

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

Thanks for the support my man!! I was controversial indeed but that’s powerlifting eh?!

[@RogueCylon]

1/2KG which is nuts!!

[@enricopravato6677]

​@@capnmecrunchys1885on the last squat I can agree, but that deadlift was not good, and if you give Taylor the squat you have to allow Cali to pull more, and in my opinion he had more

[@justinadams-gl5jx]

Good call on not giving taylor the deadlift but redlighting his last squat was ludicrous. And giving monigatti that deadlift was insane

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

Controversial for sure! He actually posted a video talking about it with a comparison of the depth side to side

[@bosstalk]

@@WhiteLightsMedia i think a better comparison would be if he side by side with the two other lifters. Atwoods knees looked soft, expecially when seeing the competition.

[@frankjames6276]

monigatti was screwed in south africa so about time he had one go his way

Atwood definitely deserved that squat more than Tim deserved that deadlift. I don't think anyone would disagree

[@zachhoward9867]

I don’t see how you can give Tim his deadlift when he was literally leaned sideways but not Taylor. He settled and locked out. Also his squat was definitely depth. I don’t understand

[@markburnette465]

Atwood’s final deadlift arguably shouldn’t have counted, but Monegotti’s was worse-not locked out. Atwood’s squat looked good. Close competition and Johansson may have won on final pull even if Atwood’s squat counted.

How is the 3rd squat of Taylor not counted? Depth was there for sure

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

A lot of people think so!

[@barsknos]

Depth called on one side and soft lockout called from one judge. IDK. I thought depth looked in, I can agree with one blue for lockout. Maybe when they reviewed the jury agreed depth was fine, but lockout was not?

How was Tim's third deadlift overturned and Taylor's red lighted? The bar clearly went down on Tim's attempt..

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

Yeah on his right side you do see it go a bit lower, but the left side was fine, and I guess his body didn’t drop down at all. I’m not a ref though 😂

[@GuruLifts]

the ref on Tim's right side would have seen a good deadlift. i guess all refs would have seen Taylor struggle to lock his right knee out and/or the downward motion would have been clear since his rep was so long

[@karlkenlevo7868]

Great Performance by all Lifters!

[@rsadashbbx8263]

Atwood's swuat was due to depth and weak knee lockout. But it looks fine to me. Maybe not from the judge's perspective. For deadlift, i think his knee bend a lil when pulling up but the lockout was finally good. The fact that he never got the 'down' command was... Id say not fair

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

that's the Swedish coach! You can get your lift removed if you stay on the platform for more than 1 minute after your lift, so she grabbed him so it wasn't taken away. Very smart!

[@Shane-nd7bi]

@@WhiteLightsMedia interesting. Didnt know that

[@hudsonsabal8695]

Look I’m not a Taylor fan but it is unacceptable that they overturned tims last pull but red lighted Taylor’s. The precedent they set with Taylor’s pull should’ve been upheld for Tim’s and it wasn’t. I think Carl deserves it more, but I think Taylor was the real winner

The judging for the most prestigious and competitive powerlifting competition in the world or at least supposed to be was poor at moments it really counted, that last squat was solid, now the deadlift for almost all their last attempts were rough, Atwood maybe was locked out he really held that and ground it out to make sure he was good but even then if your not counting that, Monegotti for sure wasn’t kicked out

[@A-PyreD]

ı dont't like this kind of editing when the lifter takes place and suddenly the scene jumps to lifting phase we wonder how they settle to the rack and bench don't cut those parts

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

It would make the video so much slower though 😅 13 mins is already a long time to watch people lift for, and you can watch all the set up from the stream. But I appreciate the feedback, maybe we can get some more slower paced content too if there’s more demand for it 😎

[@A-PyreD]

@@WhiteLightsMedia as a lifter when ı saw this video ı felt like ı am about to witness a magic show but ı did only saw beginning and ending :/ not middle part I mean ıs ıt only me because these settling preparations feels like a meditation to me( and secret revealing part ) stretching in bench and squeezing your shoulder blades getting stiffed legs etc. during these 5-10 sec a lot of adjustments are made by lifters ty for considering my comment

[@GuruLifts]

What a battle! A controversy for sure. I am Kiwi but I would give Tim's last deadlift 1 white 2 reds at best (and would not overturn it). Taylor's third squat was on the line for depth, I say he hit depth (I would overturn it). At the end of the day, we can say what we want but we are not internationally qualified referees 😅

[@WhiteLightsMedia]

Hey again GuruLifts. Thanks for the comment, really was a crazy session

[@vBerk]

maybe next time ipf gets some sensible judges though. -atwood 3rd squat was good -monigatti had downward motion & a soft right knee on deadlift granted good call red lighting taylors last pull. that shit was ramped. probably would've still resulted in a Johnasson pull win, but still. get the judging right
