That's it guys, it's a wrap! What a year. Tough competition and an emotional roller coaster. This sport is becoming huge with every tournament so it's just a matter of time when crypto gambling sites start getting in on it. As always, we are here to push it by talking about it. Here are the final results.

1   T. Stoltman    GBR   45.5
2   B. Shaw     USA   42.5
3   M. Boudreault    CAN   36.5
4   T. Mitchell     USA   35
5   J. Caron     CAN   34
6   K. Janashia    GEO   32.5
7   L. Stoltman    GBR   32
8   A. Bishop     GBR   27
9   B. Thompson    USA   23.5
10   E. Ingólfsson Melsted    ISL   20.5

Didn't expect that the American and British Strongmen are the ones that's going to dominate the leaderboard, I have been expecting the Russian and Scandinavian to be the ones that will push through the finals, seems that I was proven wrong.

New standings after day 1 of the finals. This is a tough year but we might see both Stoltmans on the podium. With a focused Tom Stoltman, I don't see Brian Shaw as winning for the fifth time, but it's still anyone's game. J.F. Carron might be out due to injury, or at least not at his best.

It seems, it is more on fiat-based casinos - https://www.gamblingsites.com/entertainment-betting/worlds-strongest-man/. Better if we can see some top bookies here to list some of the matches from this event.

I think that local country that this event is held have a chance to bet just like in my country where I can bet boxing matches which the fighters are youtube vloggers having a conflict and those who want to bet can go to the site. I wonder if some of their platform accept foreign country to bet.

Eddie actually droped out of strongman competitions a while back and he is doing more commentary and presentation work for WSM and WUS.

That's pretty bad but an understandable reason of quitting, I mean if I was in his position and I was given a choice to commentate and competing, I would go with commentating since you don't need to break some sweat in commentary.

The man had so much ware and tare on his body, it was time to let go and do something else (Commentary, boxing, YT channel...)

Idk but it doesn’t feel right to not see Hafthor’s name on the list of competitors for the strongman. I’m not exactly sure what happened and why was he not included in the list. But anyways, wishing Novikov and Melsted to qualify. They aren’t just strong or big men, but as far as I’m aware they aren’t assholes to anyone so it’s a plus for me. The rest I don’t know about so I can’t say a thing or two to them.

These types of events are unfortunately not that popular on crypto sportsbooks, so it will be extremely hard to see these lines being offered.

Yeah, he was still in his prime, but he did so much in the sport, sometimes you have to take care of your health. There are a bunch of others still competing so no worries.

Here is a quick update on who got into the finals. The big surprise is that last year's WSM winner Novikov did not get into the final ten.

Looking forward to this competition because I do find it awesome that people are constantly competing as to who is the strongest in terms of strength, this kind of thing should be more prevalent not just in betting circle but to the mainstream ones because I feel like the new generation including is getting weaker.

I am not a huge fan but I watched some of the events.

Eddie Hall was one of the famous personalities from 2012 until he reached success in 2017. Sadly, he didn't defend his title in 2018 but he did participate in BSM and won it. There must be some way to gain fans and viewers for this competition, especially in this pandemic.
The PR trashtalk didn't work either.

He won because there was no one else there to take it. His title is not as well earned as my title, that’s how I feel.

Using social media could be helpful.

Good point. Strongman competitors are not gaining any traction by trash-talking as they are all generally on good terms with one another. The only thing that Hall's initial trash talk helped is their upcoming match. I have been watching the sport for some years now and trash-talking just does not fit in it and will not result in anything. What has helped only in the last couple of years is the YT presence of strongman that has been increasing, and also numerous fitness (and here I mean strength-oriented weightlifting etc) personalities getting into strongman training as well as Rob Kerney and Rob Oberst being on the JRE

but it would be more interesting if they would make it a bit entertaining because some parts of it have lots of dead air or boring moments. Crypto sportsbooks should also consider this.

there will be boring moments if you watch it live but if its recorded , they should edit and foccus in the main game only .

The problem with WSM is the crazy TV scheduling idea they have. They televise the even a few months after it and I think it loses a bit of the charm. Hope they change it up a bit but for now no cigar on that. Rogue or Arnold Pro has a great thing going with YT and they get to a much bigger audience.

It doesn't look like that famous tbh. I've seen a few clips here and there, but that's about it. I was intrigued back then though, which is why I watched a few more clips but then left it alone since it kind of bored me out after 10-12 clips. Maybe if the audience gets a bit more bigger, crypto sportsbook would add it officially, but now? Nah. Not to mention that it still needs to guarantee that everything is fair and whatnot so that bets made wouldn't be influenced by anything except the players, in this case, their strength.

The market is not that big why it is understandable that crypto bookies will not be interested at the moment. But if in the future, one name from this sports will make big noise and attract media attention and possible bettors, they may list this event. For now, I believe, it is more on fiat-sportsbooks that will have this event. Just like many other sports, like in boxing, if the fight is not that big, they won't list it.

For people who adore power, that site will give them more information knowing who is the strongest person in the world and maybe they will search for the site to place their bet. But for common people, they will not have much interest in that and will not think much about that. Maybe they can place a bet for that player but they will back to their favorite gambling games. We will see many new sports in this pandemic because people hunger to find the thing that can give them entertainment.

But sports like this hardly attract fans since it has no betting format and isn't popular like many other sporting activity. For 2021 tournament what should we be expecting and would color be added to the event so as to spice it up thereby attracting more veiwers from all over the world. The fun of sports is in it's fans. With much fans the tournament would generate more funds and also have well structured gambling platform for betting

Crypto bookies will automatically list an event without relying on talks or requests here as long as it has a good market.

Looks like you have an idea about this as a sharer here. Do you think the event is popular globally? No right answer here. Just a quick view of your opinion on how you look at the event since I see you have knowledge about this.

I don+t think the popularity of the sport, in general, is a problem, the problem is that it's not popular in the globally small community that is crypto, so that's why talking about it could spread the word. More strongmen are using their IG acc's and YT channels to promote themselves and the sport and in the last couple of years, it gained some serious recognisability, especially in the US.

Bjornsson has retired last year and is preparing for a boxing match with Eddie Hall as this is the thing that's bringing in money at the moment.

That's the reason I guess as to why Eddie Hall isn't in this competition too, their beef with each other seems to run really deep. I think that a lot of people will buy these tickets for their matches because you don't see strongmen duke it out in the ring and I think it's hilarious.

It seems that he didn't participated in this one but his friends Oberst and Shaw is joining the tournament. I am not familiar with the other names but I think that Russians and Scandinavian strongmen will probably dominate these tournament.

I spent sometime watching some clips of it and it is somehow entertaining and amazinh how this men prove themselves to be the strongest competing in different types of event. There might be few bookies who will cater this since only few people know about it.

Though there might be some bookies for fiat but I doubt there wouldn't have enough bettors. I don't know I could be wrong.
World's strongest man is not new to me I've seen this competition before, but I think there were only small number of bettors for this event just like the wall climbing competition or the American ninja competition. Most of the sportsbook does not offer betting lines for small market.

However, there would always be a betting site or place where these events are very popular.

World's strongest man is not new to me yet this is my first time seeing it here.
Perhaps, this isn't really that popular amongst to crypto bettor but I believe it's not limited to fiat-based casinos out there. It's just that they aren't that very popular unlike to the other sports that we've seen on the Olympics.

My question is, does the Olympic games have a crypto based casino intended for them?
It might be just a fiat-based casino only if there isn't a crypto betting.

with less than 10% of the people around the world who are familiar with crypto, there isn't a crypto sportsbook that will add this event. this isn't done regularly like every week. there might be with Olympics, it's a huge event where every country is watching.

The problem with an all round event is regulating any variation in the competition events to make overall results and betting fair. The stunt moving the plane is possible depends on the gearing and friction present in order to move it, there is a Guinness world record for it so I guess its always possible but I dont know how much they involve themselves with setting recognised standards. Generally there has to be some body overseeing events to ensure they are valid. Record is 188.83 tons and was last set in 2009, surprisingly long time ago but I guess it will cost fair bit of money to setup each attempt.

And looks like the event was a big competition. According to the ticket's section, it was already "SOLD OUT". A few hours from now and the event will now start.

For crypto bookies, maybe they will consider adding the event once it was now on the Finals.

Of course, weightlifting is an official competition, I think it's not foreign to your country, because every year there are Olympics those who participate in the competition such as: Eko, Windy, Erwin, Deni and many others, in the official weightlifting/strongest man competition.

Maybe weightlifting, in your country is not popular, but it's a different story in America and the European continent, it's the most tense sport full of challenges.

you are wrong if you say that weightlifting is not popular in my country, and I know the names you mentioned are the national weightlifters of my country, but the problem is that the competition is very much different from the current weightlifting sport, although the two sports both rely on muscle and physical strength. As far as I know, weightlifting only uses a barbell as a weight with a weight that has been determined by the athlete himself, but this strongman competition uses various kinds of loads for the participants such as lifting barbells, pulling cars and lifting iron balls, I don't think you've ever seen a weightlifter pulling a car as a weight at the Olympics?

I see that this thread has nothing to do with the list you made, because as far as I know there doesn't seem to be any betting exchange that makes the strongest men's competition a gamble, let alone a crypto-based betting exchange, but even so I really appreciate the topic you created, because that way at least I can find out other types of competitions that are not as famous as common sports like boxing, football and so on, and to be honest I don't know much about the strongest men's matches on this topic, and if I may know how the matches are, is this an official competition?

I think it is important to talk about competitions like this on this forum as people who make decisions on what to put on their betting websites, so by talking about it we are moving one step forward to having it listed.

If I look at the sport of weightlifting as well as the strongest man in the world, I remember when Eddie Hall at that time with a record lifting weights of 463 kilograms, half a ton, this is the most daring history I have seen.

In this year's competition I believe the 2021 record will be held by the Ukrainian, namely Oleksii Novikov, I see this time he really wants to do it in the sport of lifting heavy weights, he had already prepared for the competition long ago, starting from Novikov's diet eating healthy food without sugar, vegetables, eggs etc.
I will see how he does in this competition, if, he is able to reach this 2021 record.

Novikov is a beast and could very well retain the title, but the Stoltman brothers are creeping up and I can't wait for what Bobby Thompson brings to the table.

I don't think crypto sportsbook will be interested in listing this sports yet due to its limited popularity and reach. It's a niche game and have a limited viewership. So indeed there's no interest from crypto sportsbook just as yet. Frankly speaking, I have seen few videos in youtube and that's it. No huge media coverage is also available. Hopefully in future we will see crypto sportsbooks to list such games for fun!

I see that this thread has nothing to do with the list you made, because as far as I know there doesn't seem to be any betting exchange that makes the strongest men's competition a gamble, let alone a crypto-based betting exchange, but even so I really appreciate the topic you created, because that way at least I can find out other types of competitions that are not as famous as common sports like boxing, football and so on, and to be honest I don't know much about the strongest men's matches on this topic, and if I may know how the matches are, is this an official competition?

It seems like the sort of competition that is difficult to rig with so many competitors compared to some of the random and obscure sports that have been mentioned here. There is a large following in my country and it receives prime TV schedule space. I guess the difficulty that most sportbooks face is being able to get live information if they want to take in-play bets, however they don't need in-play bets if they only allow it up to the start of the event. There does seem like prime territory for a bitcoin bookmaker to step in - someone has to step up to take bets on these very entertaining and hardcore athletes.

I don't think this event will attract the interest of crypto sportsbooks.
But would be nice if this event will be listed on their betting list though.
I am seeing familiar names but not many. Maybe only few of them have gained media attention in the past years.
Maybe this is the reason why crypto sportsbooks is not listing this event, they may not get enough bettors on this category.

If I look at the sport of weightlifting as well as the strongest man in the world, I remember when Eddie Hall at that time with a record lifting weights of 463 kilograms, half a ton, this is the most daring history I have seen.

In this year's competition I believe the 2021 record will be held by the Ukrainian, namely Oleksii Novikov, I see this time he really wants to do it in the sport of lifting heavy weights, he had already prepared for the competition long ago, starting from Novikov's diet eating healthy food without sugar, vegetables, eggs etc.
I will see how he does in this competition, if, he is able to reach this 2021 record.

is this an official competition?

Of course, weightlifting is an official competition, I think it's not foreign to your country, because every year there are Olympics those who participate in the competition such as: Eko, Windy, Erwin, Deni and many others, in the official weightlifting/strongest man competition.

Maybe weightlifting, in your country is not popular, but it's a different story in America and the European continent, it's the most tense sport full of challenges.

No God or Kings, only BITCOIN.

Not that familiar with the event/league but I guess I know one with the likes of Eddie Hall (if I remember it correctly). For sure this is gonna be an exciting event and exhilarating one. This gonna be on my bookmark. It's due tomorrow I hope I can watch a live event free from my country.

Nice to see a familiar strong man in this competition which is Robert Oberst, I think this dude is the most wholesome big dude that I have seen on the Internet, didn't see Hafthor's name on the list, what's the reason why he didn't join though?

Will there be crypto sportsbooks that will list the matches on this event?

It seems, it is more on fiat-based casinos - https://www.gamblingsites.com/entertainment-betting/worlds-strongest-man/. Better if we can see some top bookies here to list some of the matches from this event.
