Guyana’s lone representative to the just concluded Darcy Beckles Invitational Classic, Mark ‘Uno’ Perry is of the view that he should have been given a better place, he ended 8th.
The event, held at the Lloyd Erskine Sandiford Centre on Saturday night last was won by Barbadian Martinus Durrant, who was returning from a ban after failing a drug test.
Speaking with Kaieteur Sport, Perry said that he trained very hard for the show and believes that he was in very good shape. He said that while he acknowledges the high level of competition and the eventual winner of the competition, he is adamant that more neutral judges should be officiating.
“The show was great for me but I do believe that more neutral judges should have been there to judge the show. I felt I deserved a better space than eight.”
Asked what would be his next move as an athlete, Perry stated emphatically that he believes that he would stick to powerlifting.
He has taken the powerlifting stage by storm and will be a sure candidate at the Guyana Amateur Powerlifting Senior Championships set for next month.
