In what might be "the heaviest six-event contest ever held," the IFSA Battle of Muscle Beach strongman contest already has entries from some of the strongest men in America.

Phil Pfister, Mark Philippi, Odd Haugen, Don Pope, Jon Andersen and Chad Coy have already entered, and both Jesse Marunde and Steve Kirit have indicated that they plan to compete.

Scheduled for Muscle Beach, in Venice, California, on May 1, with Bill Kazmaier and Bryan Neese announcing, this promises to be one sizzling strongman contest.
