Watch all nine of his lifts, as well as an exclusive interview with Bobb hosted by King of the Lifts host, Ryan Lapadat, where we talk about his rivalry with Rondel Hunte and Ashton Rouska, his thoughts on the day, and his goals for Worlds and Sheffield.

Say it with me y’all RONDEL VS BOB MAKE IT HAPPEN IPF PLEASEE 😭😭😭😭

[Blackbereh]

He should 100% drop to the 105kg class for Sheffield and face off against Ashton. They can both obliterate the 105kg world record, but the % to beat the 120kg record is way tougher. Love his vibe too.
