The 2023 Shaw Classic<\/a> (SC) will mark the end of a competitive career by legendary strongman Brian Shaw<\/a>. Unfortunately, a peer appropriately named “The Polish Terminator” won’t be there to help see the four-time World’s Strongest Man<\/a> (WSM) champion (2011, 2013, 2015-2016) off into the deserved sunset. <\/p>\n

On June 19, 2023, the organizers of the 2023 SC used an Instagram post to reveal that Polish strongman Mateusz Kieliszkowski<\/a> had withdrawn from the latest edition of the contest<\/strong>, schedules for August 19-20 in Loveland, CO. Citing that Kieliszkowski wanted to take the time to get back into “fighting shape,” Welsh strongman Gavin Bilton<\/a> was announced to take Kieliszkowski’s roster spot<\/strong>. The 2023 SC will mark Bilton’s debut in the contest’s fourth iteration later this summer. <\/p>\n
