It's that time of the year, the world's strongest athletes are days away from testing their skills. Where: Sacramento, USA. When: May 24-29, 2022. Where to watch: Nowhere really, WSM has a business model stuck in the 1980s, so the best way to check results is a spreadsheet on the r/strongman Reddit thread (until videos get released). Athletes: Mitchell Hooper (Canada) Pavlo Kordiyaka (Ukraine) Rob Kearney (USA) Gabriel Peña (Mexico) Kelvin de Ruiter (Netherlands) Kim Ujarak (Greenland) Maxime Boudreault (Canada) Mark Felix (UK) Pa O’Dwyer (Ireland) Shane Flowers (UK) Jean-Stephen Coraboeuf (Australia) Bobby Thompson (USA) Aivars Smaukstelis (Latvia) Adam Bishop (UK) Evan Singleton (USA) Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted (Iceland) Konstantine Janashia (Georgia) Trey Mitchell (USA) Mika Törrö (Finland) Peiman Maheripourehir (Iran) Luke Stoltman (UK) Brian Shaw (USA) Tom Stoltman (UK) — Reigning WSM Champion Gabriel Rheaume (Canada) Martins Licis (USA) Gavin Bilton (UK) Oleksii Novikov (Ukraine) Kevin Faires (USA) Nedžmin Ambešković (Bosnia and Herzegovina) Grzegorz Szymański (Poland) You can also take a look at the athlete rundown on Big Loz's channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/BigLozOfficial

In the wake of WSM 2022, some accusations against the head of WSM and Giants Live Colin Bryce were made public by the head of the rival World Ultimate Strongman revealing a conversation with top strongman athlete Luke Stoltman where some offers of nepotism and corruption were put forward. I personally am not surprised because Bryce and WSM are stuck in the last century and are more hurting the sport than helping it transition to a more modern and recognized sport.

I am very surprised that this sport is not getting it's deserved recognition and publicity. This is because the world strongest man sports have been around for decades. Infact it is older than some sports that have gained more reputation. I am sure WSM as a sports or enternment is going through some challenges that is really hindering it's progress and advancement. Like thenineclub observed it might be because of nepotism and leadership problems. The WSM leadership board need to adopt democratic tenants that would make the system open to new ideas.

I am also curious if it will soon be possible to bet on these kinds of matches? I've actually never experienced that before. Well at the Summer Olympics you also have powerlifters there, but this is a completely different part what they do here. It could well be that there are a few bookmakers that make it possible to bet on this.

Yes, of course, nowadays you can bet on practically anything. Just google and a few results come up. If you mean being able to bet with Bitcoin or crypto I'm not so sure. I like strongman competitions too, because they are relatively new and there is variety in what they do. What also happens is that since it became fashionable there has been quite an increase in visits to physiotherapists and traumatologists by people who take up the sport.

Well, we are in the finals now and the expected men finished in the top 10 of the finals, so let's see how they will end up after today's events. This time around it seems WSM has kinda partnered with the strongman subreddit and are delivering live results on their webpage https://www.theworldsstrongestman.com/2022-live-results/. I am very surprised that this sport is not getting it's deserved recognition and publicity. This is because the world strongest man sports have been around for decades. Infact it is older than some sports that have gained more reputation. I am sure WSM as a sports or enternment is going through some challenges that is really hindering it's progress and advancement.

Yeah, the problem unfortunately is that the strongman sport is perceived as a freak exhibition, a traveling circus, or a carnival event, and not a sport. WSM are partially to blame for that because of how they approach it, but organizations like Rogue and Arnold Strongman Classic are trying to push the sport into a more modern form that could bring in more viewers.

I don't know any platform that have these kind of sports but I think it is possible that you can bet on this sports but the question is, where will you bet?. I don't see many gambling sites have the sports and I don't really get to see much news about the sports either and also it's recognition and publicity as stated in this thread. My guess is that, a chance of a gambling site adding this sports where we can gamble is very low in my opinion.

It maybe low at this point, but the sport is growing and us talking about it here might prompt some crypto beting platforms to look into it. Even tho there are not that many gambling sites that offer strongman bets, at least those that do show us there is some interest.

The final results are here.
1 Tom Stoltman — UK 53.5 2 Martins Licis — USA 43 3 Oleksii Novikov — Ukraine 43 4 Brian Shaw — USA 37.5 5 Maxime Boudreault — Canada 34.5 6 Trey Mitchell — USA 34 7 Luke Stoltman — UK 30.5 8 Mitchell Hooper — Canada 30 9 Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted — Iceland 13 10 Gabriel Rheaume — Canada 11
The podium finishers are as expected, it was only a question of who will be in what spot. Tom Stoltman actually made quite the distance in points compared to Licis and Novikov.

If select participant's of the World's Strongest Man know in advance what the events will be. They can train specifically for those events and gain an advantage over other participants.
The format and events for WSM should be identical every year. That way no one can gain an unfair advantage by knowing what the year's *surprise* events will be.
It could also be good to introduce a balance between raw strength and cardio challenges for health purposes. Former World's Strongest Man, Mariusz Pudzianowski struggled with cardio when he made the transition to MMA. Pure bulking and massing isn't good for the human immune system and other aspects of health.

The Scottish superstar is now the 10th man to win multiple Worlds’ Strongest Man championship. Tom Stoltman won this championship after a competitive battle with Oleksii Novikov and Martins Licis. I wanted the the Ukrainian; Oleksii Novikov to clinch the title in honor of his war-torn fatherland. But Tom Stoltman has been consistent in the last six WSM finals, Tom Stoltman has never gone below the third position. He deserves the victory because he worked hard for it. I want the WSM to attract more sponsorship and gain more publicity.

Seriously, if they were better at getting this televised or broadcasted in a way which was accessible, then this sport would blow up. I'm not all that into weight lifting, but I find the sport quite intriguing, since they do push them self to the limit, potentially more than any other sport. I recently rewatched the Eddie Hall documentary, which is fantastic if anyone hasn't watched it. The amount they go through behind the scenes is quite remarkable, and his wife is very much part of his success. In the wake of WSM 2022, some accusations
To be fair, accusations are always made in this sport, and you can see why. These guys are definitely pushing the limits on what a human body can, and can't do.

The truth would be something new, I don't know if any of the platforms in the forum can be encouraged to make this type of bet, in general, the strongest men in the world are usually very fat, those who lift weights do not have that shape in their body, they are more focused towards the athletic, if we take into account that muscle mass helps to have much more strength it is considerable, for me those who lift weights have total control over what they lift, while those who lift other things like carts, like things similar to what is raised in crossfit but heavier is more complicated.

Nah, I don't want to risk my money on sites that I am not sure of. I don't do it anymore unlike before where I spend some money to try gambling sites that are not known. I still remember where I tried depositing eth and tried the lottery but later on, the site didn't survive but I did get my money back. So, betting my money on the site I haven't known or not reputable yet is not a good choice to make.

Finally, I discovered another sport that interests me, and I am confident that if it were available in any other recognized crypto sportsbook here, I would bet on it.
As much as I admire the science of weightlifting, I believe that learning how these guys train to reach their maximum lifting capacity would be extremely advantageous to someone like myself who is a gym rat. However, one thing that intrigues me is why the majority of their body types are like a dirty bulk, rather than a shredded type of body physique similar to bodybuilders?

I think its over already. Watched some of its video, didn't fully appreciate the contest however. Its stunning to see biceps that big that can lift block of stones weighing 188kg. But I was amazed lately about a 2009 Strongman winning who got into MMA named Mariusz_Pudzianowski from Poland. He applied what that huge muscles are for. This is the result by TheNineClub. The final results are here.
1 Tom Stoltman — UK 53.5 2 Martins Licis — USA 43 3 Oleksii Novikov — Ukraine 43 4 Brian Shaw — USA 37.5 5 Maxime Boudreault — Canada 34.5 6 Trey Mitchell — USA 34 7 Luke Stoltman — UK 30.5 8 Mitchell Hooper — Canada 30 9 Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted — Iceland 13 10 Gabriel Rheaume — Canada 11
The podium finishers are as expected, it was only a question of who will be in what spot. Tom Stoltman actually made quite the distance in points compared to Licis and Novikov.

Yeah, the problem unfortunately is that the strongman sport is perceived as a freak exhibition, a traveling circus, or a carnival event, and not a sport. WSM are partially to blame for that because of how they approach it, but organizations like Rogue and Arnold Strongman Classic are trying to push the sport into a more modern form that could bring in more viewers.
Strongman deserves far more respect and coverage than it gets for the work they put in. One way forward is for them to find a way to show it live. People literally want live updates. The podium finishers are as expected, it was only a question of who will be in what spot. Tom Stoltman actually made quite the distance in points compared to Licis and Novikov.
I'm not gonna lie Tom getting first place makes me extremely happy. 2x WSM. I am also happy for Luke. These brothers are leaving a legacy behind. Big ups to Brian. I am totally impressed with his performance. At 40 years old, he still makes it to the final. Overcoming all the obstacles and achieving and dominating, incredible effort in strength.

Not actually a fan of this but I like to know if there are betting sites that have the betting odds for this? Just out of curiosity, I just want to check if I can have something that will interest me.
I'll check the names of the participants, and probably watch some videos on youtube.

I am also curious if it will soon be possible to bet on these kinds of matches? I've actually never experienced that before. Well at the Summer Olympics you also have powerlifters there, but this is a completely different part what they do here. It could well be that there are a few bookmakers that make it possible to bet on this.
I hope it would be possible to bet on this sport using cryptocurrency. It would sound more interesting and exciting if this sports would be on the main stream because to be honest, they really deserve to be recognized. We could really see the dedication and passion of the players.
