Any of you guys know Cleve Dean???

[DIRTY_SOUTH]

He was one of the greatest arm wrestlers of his time. He's a native of my home town. He doesn't look like much, but you wouldn't believe his strength!!! Even now that he's all humped over and using a walker, he's strong as an ox. He came to my gym tonight and asked could he work in with me since my partner is a slack ass and didn't show. I was skeptical at first but said sure, hell I felt so bad for him seeing him on the walker...but when we layed on the bench he was feeling sorry for me....he was spotting me and he's the one using the walker Anyways, I have a personal pic that I'll add to this tomorrow, but heres some history on him. Also, if you check out the old Stallone movie over the top, you'll see him in that as well.

that guy is an absolute monster. My dad use to be a competetive arm wrestler and went against him a few times. he said that it was absolutely no contest cleve killed him. Also cleve use to pick up and load 400-500 pound hogs and load them by himself all day long. As you probably know he was a hog farmer.

Hell naw, I feel sorry for him....he barely can walk even with the walker.

Hey dirty, you don't live far from me. Cleve is a monster. He said once that he would write a bad check for travel expenses going to an arm wrestling meet because he knew that he'd be back with enough money to cover it. One tip though, if you shake his hand, don't try to shut down, he'll crush you.

Yo kite, you gotta PM.
