In Response To: Re: Top 5 USA all time? (sam maxwell)

considering that you were a top ranked US competitor yourself, I am surprised that you write of a 10 to 12 kg. (22 to 26.4 lb.) spread between a top US lifter and the number one world level as if it was a trifle. 10 to 12 kg. is a huge margine.

As Urrutia said one day in training, "the kilos don't cvome easy!!!"
