MN Heavyweight Nelson

That IS confounding...I think it must be that Nelson is perhaps shorter than he appears...I thought he was up around 255 though last year?

Nelsons a big boy, but he isn't that thick or round.

How tall is he then? About 5'10"?

I think chalfant is about 240 and may be the strongest guy i've met . I'm talking breaking fingers when he shakes your hand strong .When he played football he ran a 4.6 and played defensive end and full back - adam has also worked so hard to make it to D1 -great kid .

For comparison, these were some BIG Hwts. since the new 285 weight class: Lesnar, Konrad, and Fox.

These guys that we speak of today could almost seem "small" compared to these boys above!

I remember Fox having to make the pull to 285 !!

I'd have to cut to 197 these days when I was weighing in at 170 in high school. Wrestling 295 sounds l

Wrestling 285 sounds like a dream
