At only 23-years-old, powerlifter Jesus Olivares has become a common household name because of his incredible lifts. However, his rate of improvement is unfathomable, and judging by his recent performance, it seems like Jesus will become the All-Time Greatest Raw Powerlifter. He took part in the 2022 AMP Classic Open Nationals contest that took place on March 01-03, in Austin, Texas.
Jesus came out victorious in the raw 120+ kg weight class, and he scored the win after accumulating the humongous 1110 kg (2,447.1 lbs) total. This is the All-Time Third-Heaviest Total ever done in an official powerlifting competition. It is also 5 kg (11 lbs) heavier than the current IPF World Record, which was claimed by Ray Williams at the 2017 NAPF Arnold Slingshot Pro American.
