If he had started out as a strong man competitor, or started earlier, he would most definately have been brilliant at it... he leg presses 2300lbs for gods sake! lol
But I think he is past the point of no-return, as he has nerve damage in his lats and triceps.
There are rumours of him coming back to the Olympia, but I think its hype, I doubt he will come back. Especially as Jay Cutler is really on form.
Apparently he is 100% back for 2010 olympia.
As for him being a good strongman, of course he is mega strong in a powerlifting sense but WSM is about CV fitness aswell, which i guess he would have little of given the size of him.
Johnny Jackson is the strongest IFBB Pro, he'd maybe have a better chance at WSM but to be honest, i doubt they'd manage it. Plus WSM is "drug tested" (in the loosest sense of the word!)
