Boudreault recently shared the news of a shin injury that compelled him to withdraw from the 2023 Arnold Strongman Classic (ASC) and the 2023 World’s Strongest Man (WSM) contest. He informed Shaw that he expects to be recovered and in competition shape by August to perform in the 2023 Shaw Classic.
The events for the 2023 Shaw Classic were not announced in the video above, but Shaw confirmed that he and his team have worked hard on the layout of events to take the competition “to the next level.” The 2022 Shaw Classic introduced the Car Leg Press to the strongman world. We’ll also see if the 2023 edition debuts a new strongman event.

Shaw Classic Open
In addition to the 2023 Shaw Classic, the Open competition for weight division strongmen and strongwomen will return for the second consecutive year.

Submission deadlines are available on the Shaw Classic website: www.theshawclassic.com. Likewise, tickets are still available for spectators who wish to see all the strongman action and Shaw’s competitive send-off live.
