Did you see Levan yesterday? He looked l all of his weight is his guy and his arms and head looked like he had aids. It’s hilarious engin trying to make the devon vs Levan in January. Just like ermes despite being champ pressuring him to face devon on a whim. Devon will beat Levan if the sleazy scumbag promoter engin will pay him enough to lose in January.

Yesterday the Todd vs Ongarbeav match was the best, cause it showed that Todd has incredible power and completely took Ongar out of his game and left him with Zero. At 57 Todd might be the best for his age, and weight… only going up. Far as Devon we all knew he was gonna win, but he snatched Denis Soul it seems, he was in a different mindset soon as the first round was over, he knew it was over imo.

That first round with all those surges I turned primal, foaming at the mouth, thinking that was just so barbarically brutal.

Maybe but Levans physique is dogshit as of today and when’s the last time you saw Levan looking like yesterday. It was shocking

Devon has always been my favorite arm wrestler, but I wasn't sure if he would win because Dennis is a beast when it comes to strength. But I sincerely hoped.

I think what Toddzilla did to Ongarbaev, you can do the same and take that title after a few matches to get back into the rhythm of things. Just my opinion

Clearly the most epic beard in all of Arm wrestling right now. I'm looking forward to your return to the circuit. Edit, I was most impressed With Todd's match vs Kydirgaly Ongarbaev. Todd just outpowered anything K.O had to offer. It's great the Veteran's like you, Devon, John, Dennis, Todd are still kicking arse as "older dudes" in sport.

Michael you and denis needs to happen I think it would be exciting..

Hey Mr and Mrs MMT, 3 things. 1st, Michael, you're looking super healthy, awesome to see. 2nd, I wondered why I wasn't getting any notifications and found out I was unsubscribed... I had heard of this happening to other folks but was surprised it happened to me. 3rd and most importantly I'm very sorry for your loss Michael

I would love to see you pull jerry to potentially get you up in the rankings and see who is nr 1 in the US

E vs W hasn’t been showing the weigh ins, I kind of look forward to that, unless I am missing it somewhere someone please let me know

Michael is last man to win todzilla props to you michael

Whatever decision you take well support you. But I think the super heavy weight class I'd the most exciting to watch. Going against kurdesha would be nice test as a comeback

Awesome comments of the event

Great cover! Todd has all video well produced and best context, tempo of presentation, etc.. all well prepared, more than videos from the events recorded by video pro. Rebecca deserves the credit.

We saw how Denis stopped Kurdecha, and Alex is pretty badass toproll and long lever just like Vitali... so i dont think Vitali would be that of a problem neither... At this point not even Genady.. only Levan and will see Georgi, because Georgi can make u sweat, the bad thing is he is not too versatil

My dad arm wrestled MMT back in the 90’s Todd won the tournament lol

Only me that feels the sound is muffled

Toddzilla and Devon are keeping me interested in Armwrestling right now, keeping West/NA alive haha

I agree with you about Egle, I was thinking that she might be #1, too! And was also thinking that Devon might get caught when he was hitting. Was an awesome event.

Well, Denis was in a hurry to choose an opponent like Devon, as we can see, he is not in the best shape yet, so it will be a lesson for everyone who have dropped out of the competition for a while, do not rush to compete with strong opponents (even the top 2-5 of the heavyweights, it's too big a step after the absence of competitions)

MMT at East v West would make it complete.. 💪

Are we going to see a colab with you and Devon anytime soon?

Devon was very impressive for sure.

Michael what happened to your microphone? Sounds very muffled, where as before it was clear.

Nothing but love brother ❤❤

I knew Devon would take Dennis mainly because Dennis had only pulled John on the comeback! Devon never stopped and pulled everyone win or lose it matters! Todd impressed me the most! I thought he would have more trouble than that!💪💪

Don’t rush the comeback imo monster, I’d rather see you pulling with longevity than rush and get hurt. Glad you are back!

I'd like to see Hutchings drop down and go for the 95kg title too

Love you guys 🙏🫂💝✌️🫡

It's possible, but he would likely need to get stronger, but it's hard to say. If Denis started juicing heavily again to get back to his old form it would be crazy, but it would also be a risk considering his health issues. He may just accept defeat and not try to get back there.

People cant say Devon is hiding from anyone any moore he is the monster right now and he did that at 265 pounds He no longer a defense fighter he is hiting People fast and Furious in the Super heavy weight class and he is not just winning he is destroying them and the all weight moore.He is seting up to win in a thrid weight class.This man is in his prime Physically mentally and confidently.That makes him dangerous to the one and only levon.That king of king in Arm wrestling as power goes.Lets see if he is the same after his injuries healed.I think that gact he keeps taking people on its get him strong er at the table

Devon giving a round away could mean loads of people losing lots of money or bet on devon. That’s something you have to keep in mind as well. Devon praised denis after the match. How many times is it going to take before people understand how devon works ? MMT knows what I am talking about. When u sign the dotted line with Devon you are the enemy to him and he will do anything and everything to annihilate you, then weather he wins or loses he ALWAYS gives the respect and admiration to his opponent. What devon does, grows the sport. Weather u like it or not. And plus, it would be boring if EVERYONE was the same! It makes it more interestng that every puller has their own signature things they do and personalities

Denis is way off that level Great win from Devon,but that's silly

I loved seeing John shredded. He looked younger and healthier. And Devon has shown that bigger/heavier doesn’t necessarily equate to better.

Are you hiding the mic in your legendary beard? 😂 it sounds like it.

Devon was not only amazingly strong by his own and unique practice, he applied his own dynamic strategy over the static one from Denis as you said Denis kept hanging on. John Brzenk recognized that too. The winning illusions Denis got from his camp destroyed him by routine practice. The world of armwrestling has been changing and pro pullers have to invent their own methods to stay in the world level and challenge the younger generations.

MMT I am hoping you take this in a positive light. First I want to say sorry about your Mom but she is in a far better place now. OK right now in this video when you talk about matches for yourself I see doubt or hesitation. So I would start slow and low on the totem pole. Get on the table as much as you can so you can get your mind to believe your arm and your talent is back. You are MT right now, we want you to get back to the fire eyed MMT. So in order for you to get to that you can't think about a crown or rankings. You just need to arm wrestle everything that moves. Solid training on riser, cup, pronation, etc. along with a static hold when you are tired 6 times a day every day. Start small and work up, don't go to fail or pain. Hope to see you back out there soon.

Go Mike

Would love to see you come back slowly, not fighting top dogs at very start. That would maybe help to figure out what you can do now, after operation, and, if hopefully all goes well it would be epic come back to the top with winning streak.

We gotta see you against Todd for the 105 title. You beat him last time and you have onngarvaev a great match with an injured elbow/bicep tendon.

One way to think about it is Devon was obsessed with destroying Dennis that he dared to say it in public to obligate himself to show complete commitment. He couldn't forget the 2018 left arm disaster. Devon showed an unmatched amount of effort that, for the first time in his history, he didn't show his training. He studied every match of Dennis, trained so hard. On the other hand, Dennis was relying on his close circle for his training, and focused on certain positions that are Dadikyan specific. He ignored all the warnings that said he would face troubles with Devon's style, and the fact that he is just back after a serious injury and underestimated Devon. So it's a complete dedication from a fully engaged Devon VS a miscalculation from a post-injury Dennis. However, Dennis, after such a devastating disaster, will wake up to reality and make better adjustments in the right direction. In one year, he will be competing for the spot number 1 again. So ironically, this defeat is the best thing Dennis can actually wish!
