What do you think would make one world class for a natural lifter? 500/600/750 Bench/Squat/ Dead?

Raw and any weight class, but not like a morbidly obese guy that is crazy big and strong but can't do anything other then the lifts. So someone like the size of matt Kroc or something like that where they're big and strong but not obese.

World class total all depends on your weight class, the heavier the lifter the more they need to be able to lift.

Matt Kroc weighs about 250 (but not natural), but most recently has competed in the 220 class. So I'll go off of the 220lb class that, I would say someone would have to be able to hit about a 1800 total

I guess when he competes at 220 he's about 245 and just cuts alot of weight for weigh ins. in one video he estimates his raw total would be a little above 2000. so if a guy at the very top can get 2K juiced 1800 naturally would be insane

I have a friend that competes at 275 natural and totals close to 1800, and he isn't considered "world class". I wouldn't say it's insane, but would put someone in the elite.
