There it is Paper Street Coffee, Paper St. coffee.com.
0:19
Go get some paper street coffee you get let's see what do I sit?
0:25
You get some deals here, the Colton bundle get some free hog
0:28
scrub with the purchase of the Colton bundle or you can still
0:31
get the the Kyra bundle and get some of her rogue coffee beans.
0:37
So go check those out. Wow, that's quite the finish
0:42
John. I guess before we get into the
0:45
results, I I get a sense that Rich tested this and didn't test
0:51
it for the women on the final event.
0:53
What do you think? I mean, I yeah, maybe.
1:02
The men seem to The men seem to finish way better.
1:05
Yeah, but I I'm totally fine with with leaving them the same
1:08
time cap and then a few finish like 'cause all of like most of
1:11
the men finished, right. So like I'm totally OK with it.
1:16
Just it's you have to go boss the wall.
1:19
Like that's fine. I'm totally fine with that.
1:21
The top women finished off like top five women all finished.
1:24
So they are capable. It's just, and I think after the
1:28
first heat of women didn't finish, everybody immediately
1:31
was like, oh, we need to go a lot faster than we think.
1:34
And so if it was reversed, I think more men would have not
1:37
finished and then it would have all speed up again.
1:39
Does that make sense? Yeah, I I guarantee Rich was
1:43
very nervous after that first women's heat.
1:45
Sure. I mean, I'm sure he was much
1:46
more happy after the fact. But you know, there's been
1:50
workouts like that before where they're like, oh man, we have to
1:52
go way faster than we think. And that could be the point,
1:58
right? I know Rich was like time cap,
1:59
maybe a little bit aggressive, like he I, I agree.
2:03
I think he was very nervous. But I don't think there's a
2:06
problem with the time cap. So some when you want workouts
2:10
that are like, no, you have to just burn the house down like a
2:14
time an extended a 7 minute time cap makes everybody not do that
2:18
where you force their hand like the winner will, but everybody
2:23
else won't. We've there's been a lot of
2:24
workouts where we see especially like a lunch to the finish where
2:26
the winner sends it and then like maybe second sends it,
2:32
somebody who sends it but blew up ends up, you know, 10th
2:34
place, right? And then everybody else just
2:36
paces it to the best of their abilities.
2:39
Yeah, I get it. I think a 5 minute cat probably
2:41
would have been fine. I'm all for making them send it.
2:44
I I'm all for it. I don't care to watch everybody
2:48
finish. I want everybody to be
2:49
uncomfortable. It's not a participation trophy.
2:53
I mean, we got lucky that we got the the top five finished, but
2:57
we were very. Nobody finishes if nobody
3:00
finishes it. Or the OR the OR the three that
3:02
go to the games didn't finish. I feel like we would have had a
3:04
little bit of a sour. Taste, but they all finished
3:06
with time to spare. Yeah.
3:09
I mean, yeah. I mean, I guess when there's
3:11
that, it's not a whole. Lot.
3:13
That's a whole nother trip, yeah.
3:14
It's not a whole lot of time. Tyler's going to be here any,
3:18
any hour now. Just give him a couple hours.
3:21
He's on the on the road back to the great state of Pennsylvania.
3:25
In case people were curious, Victor Hoffer 1 Mayhem.
3:30
I don't know if they have announced it yet, but the tie
3:34
break. Check this out.
3:37
Roman has a first, a second, a third and a fourth with that
3:42
last event. Victor has a first, a second and
3:45
a third and another third. So he wins the tie break on the
3:51
4th event. Yeah, yeah, He had, you know,
3:56
1233 and then event 6 has not been announced yet.
4:01
Have they have, are they going? Are they still doing the award
4:04
ceremony live or not? They're doing the podium.
4:06
Yeah, they're doing it right now.
4:09
I mean, they're wait, they're waiting to do it, but yeah.
4:14
Is that Boz down there? Do you see him next to?
4:17
Rich, Yeah, he's been, he's been there, but.
4:24
Which is just wild. I, I mean, for Victor Hoffer, I
4:27
mean, I'm super happy for him, but it's, I don't think anybody
4:32
would have predicted Victor, don't we?
4:34
No. No, he, he called it, he said he
4:39
was going to be good at, I thought he was going to be good
4:41
on the, the rope climbing and handstand walk workout.
4:46
But I mean, he he did the bench press well.
4:49
I'm shocked he got third in the bench press workout.
4:52
It is a little surprising, but he said he liked it.
4:57
Even getting 5th on something like Gwen is, I mean is is even
5:02
more surprising. Yeah, his worst finish was the
5:06
run 7th place. So I mean that's that.
5:13
We talked all week that you couldn't have a a bottom or a
5:17
top bottom 10 finish. And the top three of the only
5:21
three who did not Austin with a 13th, Colton with a 18th, that
5:27
was. That it's it's not about this,
5:30
it's not about this Parker I bench 385.
5:35
I would not win this workout. Like it's it's about blowing
5:39
yourself up and then still having like an extended
5:43
anaerobic system and then being able to lunge and broke it to
5:48
the fence. Like it's not that he wouldn't
5:50
do it and be fine. Like I thought, I didn't think
5:53
he would do badly, but to come third in this field, I it's
5:59
just, I was just shocked. Yeah, it I feel like the 200
6:05
double unders after that on a rope that you're not used to is
6:09
is rough jar jar Cydia crown going to end up having a pretty
6:14
stacked field concerning a lot of these guys aren't committed
6:17
to any other comps. Yeah, Hatfield and Colton, I
6:23
think both have accepted their invites.
6:28
I would imagine Saxon would wouldn't accept that invite.
6:32
To syndicate. To syndicate Hopper.
6:36
Hopper will be there since he didn't compete here so.
6:41
Dude, we're and then whoever doesn't come out of legends like
6:44
we're. I think, I think Legends is a
6:47
little bit of a mixed bag because you have all the West
6:48
Coast guys like Tudor will go to Norcal, but like if, if for some
6:53
reason like Dallon ends up not making it, he'll come out the
6:57
syndicate and like it. There's no guarantees.
7:00
With two spots, there's nothing. It's interesting because of the
7:06
top like 12 guys, Austin Colton and Jason, like it seems like
7:15
those three spots for the men are kind of sewed up like, but
7:18
I'm trying to think if there would be any other any Victor
7:21
Hoffer in the world that would middle those guys.
7:24
I guess we're getting ahead of ourselves so.
7:28
Little bit, little bit on the women's side, Paige Rogers, She
7:34
she wins it easily. Emma Lawson, Lucy Campbell When
7:41
the pressure's on, Lucy Campbell might be the best in the field
7:46
against at least any of the women's side.
7:49
I think if every event was just the last event she would be she
7:53
would beat Tia if it's just the last event.
7:57
Somehow you can make the last event every event every time she
8:01
goes. It's not like a pleasant
8:02
feeling, but she seems to put herself there on quite a bit.
8:06
But she pulls it off. I mean, Wanapalooza was bench
8:10
press. You've got bench press here.
8:16
I. Don't think she's like super
8:17
exceptional bench press either. She's just not.
8:21
She's not bad at it and it doesn't take a lot out of her.
8:24
And she went. I mean she did.
8:25
Did she do all 200 unbroken? I think she had one break, one
8:30
break. But dude, Domit gave her her
8:35
best crack about. I mean, I knew as soon as they
8:38
went to the lunch, like the turn, you could tell on the turn
8:40
around like it's over. Well, once they were together, I
8:42
knew that like Domit was going to have something lucky happen
8:47
because she needed to have somebody, I think, to middle
8:49
her. Maybe.
8:50
I didn't. I didn't look at the tie.
8:51
Rate there, yeah, but I just meant 1V1.
8:54
Yeah, but you know, you notice like Domit was looking at the
8:59
the big Jumbotron that's up there trying to keep an eye on
9:03
see where Lucy was. I don't think Lucy was doing the
9:06
same. I think Lucy was just in her
9:08
zone. Just.
9:09
I mean, if you think, if you think like, hey, I it's
9:12
basically a send workout, I'm just going to send it my own,
9:17
you know what I mean? Like if you're.
9:17
Saying, well, I mean, yeah, but Domit wasn't.
9:19
Domit wasn't though. I mean she was sending it too
9:22
but. Yeah, a lot of people are asking
9:25
if Domit where she will go. Johnny's still there.
9:30
Here you go. Yeah, I'm here.
9:31
I hope Abigail goes to syndicate, but she may stay out
9:33
West. I mean, she's in.
9:36
Was she Texas? She's Texas, yeah.
9:39
Yeah. So she's not like, it's not
9:41
that. It's actually probably a shorter
9:42
flight to Knoxville than it is. I honestly.
9:47
Norcal. Feel like you'd probably play
9:49
the field if you're her. I would love it.
9:53
I would love if she came out to syndicate but I feel like if
9:58
you're her they're both 3 spots correct?
10:02
No, Norcal's only two. So you you kind of you kind of
10:08
just see who where I if I'm her, I see where who's who's it kind
10:12
of leaning towards as far as like depth of field.
10:15
And then I probably just make my decision off that.
10:19
Unless it's TFX. She's not a big programming like
10:22
needs a certain programming. Olivia did.
10:25
She's a big name. Didn't think, forgot about her.
10:28
Yeah, I'm not sure where she'll be going.
10:31
Yeah, I I get that Texas is West, but they can go either
10:33
where either 1 and I would say the flight is actually shorter
10:37
to syndicate. He's just not that that's really
10:39
going to matter. Yeah, Emily Rolf, I know she's
10:49
on. She she's going accepted Norcal.
10:54
I don't know if she's accepted syndicate yet.
10:58
Haley Adams. In West Canada, correct?
11:02
Who? Rolf.
11:03
Yes. Yeah, So I feel like she's
11:04
probably N Cal. She did North Cal last year,
11:08
right? Like I, I think she's.
11:09
Well, she kind of did. I mean, she, she had the elbow
11:12
injury that we couldn't talk about last year.
11:15
And I mean, she still did well. I think she ended up like 5th or
11:17
6th even though she didn't do some like Heavy Isabel.
11:23
But Haley Adams, I think she'll be there at syndicate.
11:28
Lucy going to French. Claudia going to French.
11:31
Yeah, Fusole. Cairo Syndicate.
11:35
Reese probably Syndicate. Well, Cairo might be going to
11:37
Taurian. That's right, that's right.
11:40
She didn't say Taurian. But Fusole would be probably be
11:42
there. Reese.
11:44
I think Reese actually qualified for French Throwdown so I don't
11:47
know if she's going to do both or not.
11:49
I'd imagine Caroline Stanley will be there.
11:54
I don't know what Geist Hart will do or Fouts but wish Hart
12:00
is a Norcal. Not sure about Hattie or if
12:03
Christine will do anything. Paige Rogers, is she now in the
12:11
talk for? Podium.
12:16
Podium were winning the Games. I mean, I think you got to put
12:19
her name in there. Yeah, Yeah, I don't.
12:27
It it wasn't that she was just better.
12:31
She was convincingly better than than Lucy and Emma both, which
12:36
is, you know, I don't know why. She's just very unassuming.
12:45
Her body doesn't make sense. Why is that?
12:49
She's got like a swimmer's body. She's got these long arms and
12:53
but somehow she's amazing at pressing.
12:57
She's like one of the best handstand pushovers there are at
12:59
Mayhem and. She's got mom's strength now.
13:04
Yeah, I like it, just it just I her body doesn't make sense and
13:09
her worst event was the run, correct?
13:12
She got ninth in the run. I mean, it would have had to be.
13:18
9th, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd, 1st and then.
13:21
Dude, I mean third, right second or third kind of dominating,
13:26
man. The thing it's, it's so hard to
13:29
say when somebody's worst thing is running that they're going to
13:35
win because there's so many workouts at the games.
13:39
There's usually four or five that have running in them of in
13:43
various ways, right? And it's because we don't test
13:47
running until the games most of the time.
13:51
So, and I, so I get it. I get it completely.
13:54
I'm not saying it should change. It's kind of always been like
13:56
that. I've never had a problem with
13:58
the amount of running at the games because it's just
14:01
something you can't test. You don't really test, right?
14:06
So when somebody's worst thing is running, it's gonna show up a
14:10
lot, right? So it's it's really hard to say
14:14
that person's gonna win. Can you tell me the last time
14:17
we've had a winner that was not good at running?
14:22
Laura Horvath and Laura Horvath. She's still, I mean, I'd say
14:27
she's. Still a good runner she's.
14:28
Probably where Paige is. I think she's slightly better
14:30
than Paige. Paige was super excited about
14:33
where she finished in the run. Was like this was the best place
14:37
she could have finished in the run.
14:38
Very proud of herself. I would say Laura's a better
14:41
runner than Paige. Not by a lot.
14:43
Same category I. Mean, I think, I think Laura
14:45
probably would have been like sixth maybe in this field.
14:47
Laura's got like a million home runs, you know what I mean?
14:51
Of like other things. So it's just extremely hard,
14:58
'cause you think about the guy, all of the guys can run that are
15:00
up there so. Rich has lost.
15:02
One all of them, yeah. I mean, Rich is your worst
15:05
runner and you know, all we remember is 2014.
15:09
But Rich wasn't that bad at running either.
15:12
Like running workouts, he did fine.
15:14
He didn't he didn't beat Josh Bridges in running workouts, but
15:17
he was like fifth. Like he wasn't bad at these
15:20
workouts just, you know, so and then later on he got better at
15:27
running. But yeah, Rich is probably your
15:30
your worst one. Yeah.
15:32
And I mean that's that's. Catherine was always great at
15:35
running. Yeah, 12 years.
15:36
Ago, I mean that's. Sam was always great at running.
15:39
Camille is probably your last and is not a great runner.
15:44
Right. She only won because Sam wasn't
15:46
there. Well, I, I the, the programming
15:50
was really good for Camille in 2014.
15:52
But yeah, 2014 men and women, that's the last time.
15:56
Yeah. Like so.
15:58
So as far as winning goes, I'm not, I'm not like that has to
16:04
improve. It just has to.
16:07
Emma Lawson, Anything surprised you there?
16:12
No, she did exactly what I thought she would do.
16:14
I just thought Lucy would be in Paige's spot.
16:16
Yeah, Gabby Makawa, good first competition back.
16:20
Yeah, falls a little bit short, but I think, I think if you're
16:25
her, you look at it and say, OK, I can, I can compete with these
16:28
women, I just need to get a little bit.
16:31
She just got to keep on keeping on.
16:32
Yeah. Like, the things she did bad at
16:34
were all Achilles related. She kind of killed everything.
16:38
The. And like, did the handstand
16:40
ramp, legless rope climb workout as good as she could?
16:43
Like like what? Her.
16:44
Ability, 7th place on that one is doing fine, pretty good,
16:48
yeah. Yeah, the, but like the jump
16:50
rope, she was noticeably worse than everybody.
16:52
Wonder why, Right. And then the running we like,
16:56
she's always been a great runner and wasn't.
16:59
So I think for her you just got to keep on keeping on and then
17:03
it'll come back. The rest of the stuff, it seems
17:05
like you have Gabby of old fitness without the aerobic
17:09
prowess that we're accustomed to like in those.
17:13
Yeah. And I would say, I would say
17:15
overall the Mayhem programming might not be her wheelhouse.
17:20
You said that she did that. She did great in the GHD
17:22
workout. I'm just saying overall, I mean
17:25
she did fine, but she I mean she did she had a 5th, 6th, 7th, 7th
17:29
and 11th and I don't know what she did on the final workout.
17:31
So like there was nothing that was like a home run for her,
17:34
which might be some of it is where she is in her return.
17:37
But at the same time like I don't know if anything was like.
17:41
I would argue that's how she was before she got second fittest in
17:45
the world. Before she was top five fittest
17:47
in the world. She didn't have the.
17:48
Other little Laura, correct, But like she was very well-rounded,
17:52
but never really killing anything.
17:53
The run was always her best workout.
17:55
She'd get third in the run and then everything else was 6th,
17:57
7th. So I do think it's just her.
18:00
We just got keep on, I do Ferrari, just keep on keeping
18:03
on. Emily Rolf and Abigail Domit,
18:06
any concerns on them qualifying? I mean in in person if they go
18:11
to the next one. It just depends on the field.
18:14
I'd like to say no. And it's just the field is
18:17
really good for the women. It is.
18:19
I mean, the women's field is stacked.
18:23
All of the people that could play a like could play a a what?
18:31
What's the word I'm looking for? I like what Victor did to
18:33
everybody today, this this competition.
18:35
Yeah, it's a little bit of an upset.
18:37
Yeah yeah, that could play an upset are going around the world
18:42
like the Annika Greer's of the world they're in Copa Sur right
18:45
like Kyra Milligan. She's going to Torian like like
18:48
people that shouldn't beat you but end up beating you for the
18:52
sake of the because the programming fell in their favor.
18:55
Spoiler thank you. That's what I was looking for,
18:58
the they're not doing certain competitions and legends.
19:06
I mean, other than Danielle Brandon's doing legends, right?
19:08
You got Dome it. Caitlin Bernardin is supposed to
19:11
go back. I don't think she's going to be
19:12
in there. Danielle Brandon Wishart,
19:14
supposed to go back-to-back. Rolf, supposed to go
19:17
back-to-back. Hayley Adams, supposed to go
19:19
back-to-back. Kyra Milligan.
19:22
Lexi Neely, She supposedly withdrew from Mayhem because of
19:25
an injury. We'll see if she stays in or if
19:27
that is also withdrawal. Lydia Fish, your girl, Nicole
19:31
Hunches cursed. Etter spoiler hunches could play
19:34
spoiler Tonya right now. You got cursed Etter Sidney
19:40
Smith did well in the quarterfinals.
19:42
I'm not sure that'll translate at at legends, but you got a
19:44
handful. They're coming back week, you
19:46
know, back-to-back weeks. I feel like that that sets
19:49
itself up for. David, I think Abby's third best
19:51
though there. Behind.
19:55
I Olivia's very program dependent, but if it if the
19:58
programming slants in Olivia's favor. 3rd place of the cross
20:03
for games. But we don't have a run.
20:06
It's going to be a ski and a a bite.
20:08
Already, Olivia's great. That's the long one right now,
20:12
and I would imagine that is the long 1, so.
20:14
You got to have running somewhere though.
20:16
But still, you're you're absolutely right.
20:18
If it's rounds of 400 meters, like and then something,
20:21
something, whatever, call it a barbell, whatever.
20:25
Now Olivia's great, right? So like I'd put Olivia ahead of
20:28
her if that's the case, if there was a run in there.
20:31
I mean, it's enough in a 6th event competition that it just
20:33
knocks her out. So I would take Abby over Olivia
20:36
if that was the case. And then I'd put Danielle above
20:39
both of them. You know, I'd put Danielle above
20:41
them too, but then Abby's third in line.
20:43
But. You got to be two.
20:45
But you got to be two. It's just yeah, it would depend
20:48
if Olivia does it or not. Still though, I like your
20:51
chances there. If there's only two people that
20:53
could potentially beat you, there are 5 or 6 people that
20:57
could potentially beat you at MA him.
20:59
And I I would say that legend so far is kind of heavy.
21:06
I mean other than the DC workout, what is there the
21:08
sandbag 1? The sandbag, I don't know how
21:10
heavy it will be. If it's like what Dallin
21:12
thought, 1151 hundred, I mean, it's not going to be too bad.
21:16
If it's 125 that might change a little bit.
21:20
The overhead squats 185125I think it was does that that's.
21:26
Fine with that. So I I mean.
21:30
That's more about how fast you can push the pace.
21:33
You talk about Olivia Curstetter, Claudia Gluck, Lucy
21:36
Mcgonigal going out to France. The French throw down that one
21:42
because he got von Rohr in that one.
21:43
I mean, what I, what I noticed on the the European, the the Mad
21:49
Fitness festival and French throwdown is you have a lot of
21:52
Europeans that are doing both and so you have kind of the top
21:58
in there and I'd say most are going to French first.
22:03
Kyra Milligan, what do you think about her?
22:07
I mean from a going out the Torian and qualifying top three.
22:12
We have Ellie, Maddie, Sturt and Gracie and then Kyra.
22:18
Is there anybody else? I mean, you've got like Daisy
22:21
McDonald, you've got. Yeah.
22:22
I mean, like Ellie was the Prince competition.
22:25
Yeah. I mean, I think you, I think you
22:28
take that bet over other places. Better than mayhem or not
22:33
mayhem, a syndicate. Syndicate's just like a a luck
22:38
of the draw, I really feel like. The thing is, we don't even know
22:41
what the who's who's going there yet.
22:43
Right. And we don't know, we don't know
22:44
the workouts. We don't know the workouts from
22:45
the workout either. Right.
22:47
And you know you won't know all the workouts at Norcal before
22:50
you have to come. It's such a like, it's just hard
22:54
to sending. You just can't really say
22:57
anything about Syndicate right now.
22:58
You don't know who's going and you don't know the workouts,
23:01
right. But so I mean Torian, I think, I
23:05
think your best shot is Torian. From a standpoint of there's
23:08
three and you're probably there's four of you that are the
23:12
favorites. Yeah, and I mean Maddie and
23:18
Gracie 1, like, you know what they're capable of.
23:22
Like she sees them all the time, right?
23:25
So if you find them out the workouts at Torian, you kind of
23:30
know if you're going to beat them or not.
23:32
If you execute your game plan, you you really do like I mean,
23:36
obviously you don't know where you're going to middle, but just
23:38
head out, head to head. And then Ellie, who is probably
23:43
the worst one of those girls you don't really know about, but
23:46
Ellie's not going to if. There's anything it's lifting
23:49
like. She's yeah, like, like, like I
23:53
would take my chances of beating Ellie if I was her.
23:55
Yeah, Reese Littlewood, I think she's going to the French
24:00
Throwdown. I get.
24:00
I think, I think a lot of people thought that the French
24:03
Throwdown wasn't going to be that, that strong.
24:06
But I think it'd be like having North America have two
24:09
semifinals where everybody goes with those two.
24:12
And now you're you're setting yourself up for 8 or 9 going for
24:17
the three spots because there aren't going to be any
24:21
standouts. Like, you'll have Amy Kringle
24:24
going, you'll have Von Rohr, you'll have Claudia Gluck,
24:28
you'll have Reese Littlewood, you'll have Lucy Mcgonigal.
24:32
I mean, right there, just alone. There's nothing that's gonna.
24:35
I mean outside of Kringle I don't think you could say any of
24:39
them are guaranteed. I would say Mir him.
24:45
I would put Mir him second out of those girls though.
24:48
I would say yes, but I don't think it's guaranteed that she
24:51
does it. No, yeah, she's still hitting.
24:53
Miriam is a little like Olivia. Like sometimes she's freaking
24:57
amazing and then other times she's.
25:00
If it's upper bottom, it's pulling.
25:02
If it's pulling, like if there's gonna be rope climbs, there's
25:04
gonna be ring muscle UPS. If those are separate, the two
25:08
scored separate events, which obviously probably would be if
25:10
they're both in there, like that's not going to be good for
25:12
her in a six scored event workout or competition.
25:19
That's that's it on the women's side.
25:21
I want to talk through on the men's side, obviously, Victor
25:26
Hoffer, Roman Adler. Shout out to Andre Hude.
25:29
That's a that's a victor's coach.
25:32
That is Victor's coach. I mean, you can't.
25:35
You can't. And I mean, he was always one of
25:38
the best technical lifters there was.
25:41
He did really well in events where people might be stronger
25:44
than him, but he would endow out lifting them come from the
25:48
Olympic lifting world. But the I mean, you can't be
25:52
more proud of a coach other than winning, winning in this type of
25:56
a field. I just think, I just think he's
25:59
doing good work. No, for sure.
26:04
Trish looking for the standings. They have not yet updated the
26:07
final results. Rich is talking right now.
26:11
Let's go. Let's go see him.
26:15
What's he got? What's he got to say, man?
26:22
Abigail is. Yeah, she's singing for us.
26:25
Some high points, more highs than lows.
26:27
There were definitely some lows. We saw that, but I think it it
26:30
was awesome. You guys put on incredible show.
26:32
So thank you for that Great cool athletes if you care to come out
26:36
here. And make yourselves comfortable.
26:37
I'm going to hand this mic over to Tony and I'm sure it's been a
26:39
long weekend. You guys are ready for the
26:40
official results. All right guys, can we give
26:45
another round of applause for all the athletes?
26:50
Mayhem Classic 2025 and before we crown the podium, want to say
26:55
thank you to go watch Jim Reefer push fresh strongest keep those
26:58
hands going. Yeti Rogue, Chick-fil-A,
27:01
Cookeville strike, move it Dollar Mer and Red Bull.
27:05
We could not do it without them. So let's get into and recognize
27:09
the top field of our athletes and our women's division.
27:13
And now you're Mayhem classic women's podium.
27:18
All three of these athletes punch their tickets to the
27:22
CrossFit Games in San Jose, CA in first place.
27:27
Your Mayhem Classic champion taking home $12,000 with 530
27:34
points. Give it up for Paige Rogers.
27:42
Where's Paige? Why don't you call Paige, see if
27:48
she joined John? I talked to somebody close to
27:54
her and he hasn't. Gotten Rach Rogers punched her
27:58
ticket. A little busy.
28:02
Remember when we tried to call Dallon and Jason while at the at
28:05
the So Cal? They picked up their phone.
28:08
They looked at They looked at their phone. $8000 with 500
28:13
points. Emma Lawson.
28:20
Boy, Emma is as sneaky as they come, isn't she?
28:24
I don't feel like she was noticeable the entire.
28:28
Competition Final. Yeah, she was top taking a.
28:32
$1000 with 450 points. Lucy Campbell.
28:46
Larry Young, I hope Adrian is taking notes on what rounded
28:50
programming looks like. I don't think Adrian's the
28:53
issue. I.
28:56
Mean, I think California at this point.
28:59
All right, now you're making classic men's podium.
29:02
All three of these athletes just punched our ticket to the
29:04
CrossFit Games in San Jose. Amy he's.
29:06
Talking about what like. And this one was close.
29:09
I think that was. 1st place came to the second place ties and 3rd
29:13
place we had to go all the way down to those third place and in
29:16
first place you're Mayhem Classic Champion taking home
29:20
$12,000 with 525 points. Give it up for Victor Hoffer.
29:29
Man that is wild. Man the.
29:31
Frenchman coming in and stealing it.
29:34
In mainland feels a little dirty but Congrats to him I guess.
29:41
That's awesome. Maybe we'll see him at full
29:43
strength this year at the Games. And in second place, taking home
29:47
$8000 with 525 points. Roman Krinikoff.
30:01
I wonder if Roman will go everywhere to try to compete it
30:03
or if he'll do call it not go everywhere.
30:07
What are all these children doing on the Pope?
30:09
520 points. Jeffrey Adler.
30:17
This has got to be the least American podium I've ever seen
30:21
on on on mayhem. 'S floor.
30:24
Let's give it up for our men. Paige, Paige, All the Americans
30:27
athletes. Punching their ticket to the
30:29
CrossFit Games. Oh my God, say.
30:32
California A huge thank you to all our athletes, all our
30:36
sponsors and all our volunteers here.
30:38
Across the mayor and. We could not do this without
30:41
you. You brought the energy.
30:43
It's actually a very diverse group of people.
30:45
We really think it's right. It's like really diverse, not
30:50
like in a good way, not about or really not even like in a no
30:53
type of a way. But it's a it's, it's, I didn't
30:58
mean that in a negative way, but it's like not a positive way.
31:01
It's just, it's just, it's a very different group of people.
31:05
I don't need to hear the song anymore.
31:07
It's a the the. I feel like we need to get page
31:15
on now for being the only American to hold things down.
31:19
We need to send everybody to the French, throw down all of our
31:22
people. Yeah, we're trying to send them
31:25
all to Torian, but they didn't. Australians never did nothing
31:29
bad to us. Yeah, it's fair.
31:32
The men's leaderboard going through it, Austin Colton.
31:35
I imagine we're going to see them at Syndicate Crown, Saxon
31:38
Pantric, probably Syndicate Crown.
31:41
I think Spencer's going to Norcal.
31:45
Dude, Jr's programming is good for Patrick.
31:49
Well was Spencer last year was was good.
31:52
I would think Saxon probably gets the same I'm.
31:55
Just I'm just saying like he likes to do grindy hard skill
32:00
things and they're they always flourish in those type of
32:04
workouts. I mean, yeah, Saxon, his worst
32:07
finish was twelve, 14th and that was in Gwen.
32:12
Callum Clements. I'm sure he'll be going back
32:14
over to the Mad Fitness Festival trying to get his ticket there.
32:17
Quinn Robinson did not have a good quarterfinals, 166th I
32:23
think it was. I think he's this might be his
32:26
last opportunity until online, which does not bode well for
32:30
him. You don't think he'll get an
32:31
invite to syndicate like? Especially I don't think it
32:34
drops down that far. Well, I mean, we'll see.
32:41
It doesn't help him that Hopper's definitely going to be
32:44
there. Austin and Colton, like you
32:46
would have thought if the if two of those guys, maybe even 3
32:49
potentially had qualified at at Mayhem, that opens up more
32:54
spots. But now they're gonna, they're
32:55
gonna take their to keep their invites.
32:58
Jason's either gonna mop shock or lose to both of those dudes.
33:03
I. Mean they're kind of 1 and the
33:06
same now. They're a little bit different,
33:09
but they. They end up by the same part of
33:11
the leaderboard. Most often they they if if they
33:14
do really good in an event they're they're the same.
33:16
Yes, yeah. I'm just look, look, Colton's
33:19
worst workout, he was 18th place at reason why he's not going.
33:22
Is this workout Austin won or a second?
33:26
Austin was second. So I'm like, they're not
33:28
exactly. Not all, yeah, but they finished
33:30
45. Colton finished like 3rd and
33:34
Gwyn and Austin doesn't know how to not make a mistake in a
33:39
competition. So like I, I, I don't think
33:43
they're one in the same. But but yes, yes, I if, if the
33:46
programming slants towards that body type and I don't know the
33:50
programming, but if it's going to, it's going to have its own
33:53
slants because all programming does, then they're both going to
33:57
be Jason or Jason's going to look like he's going to go
34:02
back-to-back because he's going to murder everybody.
34:05
Like that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
34:07
Like this programming ended up being extremely good for Paige
34:12
right there. I'm sure there are things Paige
34:15
is bad at that none of them just came up.
34:17
But like, like she looked overwhelmingly dominant against
34:22
who we both believe will be 1 and 2 with the CrossFit Games.
34:28
So that's, that's all I'm saying.
34:29
It's going to be really, really fun.
34:30
Where would you have put Hopper in this field assuming, assuming
34:34
no, no groin injury, like he was fully healthy and was actually
34:39
here this this weekend? So I think he's with Roman in
34:43
the totobar workout. I think he's in the running to
34:45
win that one because he's his totobar.
34:49
He's got very good totobar endurance.
34:50
So let's say that's 195 the run, he would probably be around.
34:57
Top five. Yeah, I mean, he probably around
35:01
Quinn. Well, I'd probably say 5th, 5th
35:03
in the run, right? Right behind Roman, right.
35:07
That's 80. That's 175.
35:09
You want to keep the total? We'll just do the whole thing.
35:11
Yeah. The Dirty 30, he would need to
35:17
pace that one to the best of his abilities, but he's still.
35:21
What about Gwen to Gwen? I said Gwen, Gwen.
35:24
He does. I think he does about what Roman
35:26
does fifth. OK.
35:31
Another fifth. 5th 8080 points. Yep.
35:37
The Dirty 30, I think he gets 5th.
35:40
Like like the ones that he's bad at, he'll beat everybody else.
35:44
That's not, you know what I mean?
35:46
Like I think he's still beating the Enrico Zanonis of the world.
35:48
That's what I'm saying. And then?
35:52
Rook climb, Rook climb hands and walk.
35:55
That's the one that he might not do great at what, Jeff?
35:59
Because Jeff. Might not do well on it because
36:01
of the. He's not as good as the ramp as
36:03
the people who are good at the ramp like he.
36:05
Just. Let's say 8th.
36:08
We'll say, we'll say wait. I mean, his rope climbs are
36:10
probably better than anybody and the squats aren't going to be
36:12
hard for him. For Jeff or Jason?
36:15
For Jason. His leglets aren't better than
36:17
everybody. His rope climbs are.
36:19
Check Olivia Kerstetter. They're different.
36:21
Fair. OK.
36:22
So you want to take it made? Yeah, let's say 8th on that one.
36:25
He'll do what Jeff does. And then the last event, I mean,
36:30
I think he's neck and neck with Roman on that May.
36:33
I'd give Roman the lead just because Roman can.
36:36
I don't know. I really don't what Roman get.
36:40
On the what? The last workout?
36:42
Yeah, he second. He got second.
36:44
Who and who? And Jeff won, right?
36:46
Jeff won Roman and Victor. Let's say Jason takes first on
36:50
that. Gets another 100, is that right
36:55
240? We'll say Roman beats him on the
37:05
total bar one for 95, but he'll get first and.
37:07
That's Jason have been 4th. Really.
37:10
He's 4th with that. He would he would have 500
37:13
points. And Jeff had what?
37:15
520. All right, there you go.
37:19
I feel like those were fair placements though.
37:21
Do. You I mean, I think they're
37:25
fair, but I mean he need I mean. I'm just trying to think of
37:30
winning the last event so it's like a go for it.
37:32
Moment, I mean, he had a 1, he had a 12555 and an 8 and he
37:36
would have been fourth place in in that scenario, man.
37:45
I mean, it just shows you how hard it would be to, yeah,
37:48
qualify. Like it is hard to qualify.
37:51
I I thought it was Victoria, what Victor did.
37:54
It's very impressive. Like he would have had to have
37:56
those fifths or the 8th would have had to improve 3 or 4 spots
38:00
on both of them. Sure.
38:01
I I would say the 8th. If you want to make it 5th, go
38:05
for it. You know what I mean?
38:06
Like say he executes. Really.
38:08
Really. Well, he does.
38:08
He does that. He's still down by 5 points.
38:11
He's still not third. So like I and I and I, 5th
38:14
through 8th in that one, he'll say 5th.
38:17
I'll say 8th like you know what I mean.
38:20
Yeah, but I mean, that's a a 1-2 and four fives.
38:22
This is probably more accurate. Fit's probably more accurate now
38:25
I think of it just because Jeff did struggle.
38:27
He's still. He's still out by by 5 points.
38:30
Yeah, yeah, man. Man, so maybe it was maybe it
38:37
was good that he had to sit this one out.
38:40
Nah, I mean if he ended up beating Jeff like like it's not
38:42
if he lose lost by 5 points, it's not like he was not going
38:45
to get a spot. But I wouldn't have picked him
38:50
to beat Victor Roman in this because you just think of the
38:53
events, the one, the two events that Roman absolutely
38:57
obliterated that Hopper's also going to obliterate.
39:01
There's 2 events after those. I know Roman, it's going to be
39:06
better. And then the one event that we
39:10
don't really know is Gwynn. Now if he goes out and wins
39:12
Gwynn then. He's thinking 1st instead of
39:16
fifth, then he he gets there. Then that gets it right.
39:19
And that's just impossible to call for a workout like that.
39:22
Those workouts are amazing to watch.
39:23
They're terrible to predict because you literally have, I
39:26
guess somebody could go for it and they miss it and then
39:27
they're 18th, right. So like that's such a hard that
39:31
I don't like predicting workouts like that because you don't
39:36
know, nobody knows any like anything can happen.
39:42
But yeah. Yeah, Standy Colton, I think his
39:47
plan is just syndicate next. So he'll be out there with us in
39:51
Knoxville, see, going through the line.
39:56
Calum Clements, he'll go out to mad fitness vessel Enrico
40:00
Zanoni, French throwdown, Sam de Meester on the team, CrossFit
40:05
whip with Angelo, right? Tiago loses, he's going out to
40:12
French or the Far East throwdown.
40:14
So he'll try to get through Asia again.
40:17
Seth Stovall won't be doing anything.
40:19
We do need to revisit this. I had.
40:27
By the way, if Colton just didn't have the worst blow up of
40:31
all time like I I think he beats Jeff like.
40:36
Yeah, I don't think so. I think even.
40:38
I guess Jeff did win the last. Event he was he was already
40:41
paced and I think he would yeah. I don't think he would have
40:43
gotten there no. I I lost my bet when Rolf got
40:47
5th overall, yeah. So all right, expert analyst
40:52
stays back, stays here. Yeah, Nick, Matthew, he's going
41:00
to have to probably win something online.
41:03
Yeah, unfortunately for Nick, there's no TFX to bail you,
41:07
right? Right, Venyo, he's not really
41:09
doing anything. Rosa Mazon, CrossFit and Mayhem,
41:12
I believe they'll be at Syndicate.
41:14
I think they're. Going Is Ibarra going to
41:15
syndicate? I think so.
41:19
Like Chris could play a little bit of a dependent he's he'd
41:23
have to line up for him. I don't think he's going to
41:25
qualify out of Cindy. I want to see him there because
41:27
he'll be in the final heat mixing it up.
41:29
Ty, Ty and Chris both, It would have to line up for them but I'm
41:35
just saying Ty and Chris both are capable.
41:37
Of some things. I mean, I want to see him out
41:38
there, get that, get that better.
41:42
Noah Wilson. Ten leg list for time.
41:44
You're picking Colton over those guys.
41:47
No. I'm saying it's a possibility
41:50
that is possible. That they're not.
41:52
I don't think Jr. is going to program 10 legless for time.
41:55
Yeah, but if there's a big legless workout, that's a spot.
41:59
That's fair. That's all I'm saying.
42:01
That's all I'm saying. That's.
42:02
True, that's true. Daniel Cooch, he's not even
42:06
competing. Toby Buckland, he gets to try to
42:08
go through Africa again. RJ Mestre, I think he wants to
42:12
go out to syndicate so we might be able to get to see him again.
42:14
And Mason Griffin, we may see him out at syndicate.
42:21
Yeah. Overall, ma'am, it was fun to
42:24
watch. I enjoyed it.
42:27
I dude I had a ball. I think it started off semi
42:30
final season with a bang. I think the programming was
42:34
amazing. I have nothing bad to say about
42:38
it. I like if you want to say it's
42:39
biased towards Mayhem athletes, yeah, I might agree with that.
42:45
But the the again, it's their competition.
42:48
They can do what they want. You know what you're getting,
42:50
You know what you're getting. You know what you're exactly, I
42:53
don't have a problem with that. They're literally throwing the
42:56
competition on like you sign up for Rogue and you know what
43:00
Rogue's going to be right? There's a reason he and Jeff
43:04
want to peek for Rogue all every year, right?
43:07
There's a reason so. But I think.
43:10
It was, I think it was amazing. I think it was amazing.
43:13
I hope that we can pull off something similar to it.
43:18
What for the the live stream? It's a niket.
43:21
Yeah, just just just how the semi final goes.
43:23
I know Wilson will be great, I just there is not.
43:28
I hope it has. I hope it's as close as what it
43:30
was. This time is what I want.
43:32
Yeah, I just, I just thought it was great.
43:34
I just, I have no complaints and I don't want to suck off Mayhem
43:39
so freaking much because I feel like a lot of people do.
43:42
And that's why I like I'm anti mayhem sometimes because of
43:45
that. But you just, you just you have
43:49
to appreciate the effort that they put into it and like it's,
43:52
it's shows. Yeah, so we got that.
43:55
And then next weekend, there's still a semi final Legends
43:59
Championship out there in Del Mar.
44:02
Me, John and Tyler will be out there in Spartanburg, SC for
44:07
Crash Crescendo. John forgot that he was going to
44:12
be out there. And so we'll be live streaming
44:15
Crash Crescendo teams. CrossFit Mayhem will be out
44:18
there, CrossFit 1124. I think a few other big name
44:23
teams that we might see at the Games will be out there.
44:27
So we get a preview for that. And yeah, Victor Hoffer, Roman
44:35
Roman Konikov, Jeff Adler, Paige Rogers, Emma Lawson and Lucy
44:40
Campbell are going to the CrossFit Games.
44:44
Happy for Paige, Victor's the surprise of the competition
44:48
probably. I feel confident in saying that.
44:54
Any other takeaways like people underperforming?
44:57
I don't. What would Austin be if Austin
45:00
had, what, 40 more points? What does he end up?
45:05
If Austin. Yeah, 'cause that if he finishes
45:08
Gwen, it'd be 40 more. Points He needed 5045.
45:12
Oh, gosh. So he's with Jason.
45:14
He's he's with Jason. OK.
45:16
Well. Props to those guys.
45:20
No I I I had a blast. I hope all the semi morals are
45:23
like this. Yeah, that'll be good.
45:25
We'll still see if there's, I mean, at this point, I'm really
45:29
curious when we'll see a rookie qualify.
45:35
Later. It's got to be on one of the,
45:38
maybe the smaller ones. Much later, I think if Reese
45:43
qualifies, it'll be out of French.
45:45
I don't, I don't see her qualifying there.
45:46
I think it's going to be too strong so.
45:52
I guess online we'll see a rookie online that's.
45:56
The best, that's the best. I mean, every year there's like
45:58
30% that qualify that are rookies and I don't think we're
46:02
going to see that this year. I think the.
46:03
The see if we did away with online and just gave them more
46:06
spots, we would see rookies. We would have had Austin and.
46:12
Maybe not on this one, but we would see rookies.
46:16
Maybe Grace is real quick Thoughts on Kyra's performance?
46:22
What did she end up? 11th, 11th. 11th yeah, I thought
46:29
she'd be better. I think, I think I've over
46:32
ranked Kyra the last like 4 competitions.
46:37
It's I just think she has home run ability.
46:41
So she's kind of like Austin and away or if she ever put it
46:43
together, like it could be really big and I'm banking on
46:49
that. I'm probably going to rank her
46:52
lower in the next few competitions until she shows
46:56
that she can do that. Yep.
46:58
Big believer in Kiefer, so we'll see.
47:01
Yep. All right guys, we will see you
47:03
on Wednesday for the spin and then then we make our journey
47:08
out to CrossFit crash on Thursday to get ready for crash
47:12
crescendo. We will see you guys later.
47:15
I apologize to absolutely nobody.
