Michael Todd walks you through 2 of the most memorable armwrestling matches of his career against the one and only Denis Cyplenkov, aka the Russian Hulk. As always he gives you an inside look to his thoughts and emotions along the way. Also hear his thoughts on Denis himself.

I really enjoy that Dennis remains humble. He is a powerhouse for sure yet never talks trash or disrespects his opponent.

Mike, it's nice to hear you talk about Denis. Lots of comments about Denis on the States side of the pond over the years but one thing about Denis though is he's such a lovable guy. John owned him for a while but the first time Denis pinned him he jumped about like a baby boy. I don't know what's going on with his body right now but I wish him well. Cheers. WT

I would say best on left hand since he never lost even once on it and one of the 10 best ever on the right hand but would need to do more if he wants to go above some of the others on the right hand but overall with both hands its hard to put anyone above what Denis has done on both sides of the table.

Now no, i dont want a cookie or anything but I just want you to know that before you got on youtube and u and the mrs showed your likeable personalities there were ppl all along (a few anyway lol) who could see what you were doing was 1) NOT easy 2) really difficult to execute and time the transitions 3) still have to be strong as hell 4) still takes incredible time and effort and training (just with a bigger emphasis on endurance) probably. So props, and im glad some of these internet assholes are finally on board or at least willing to acknowledge yall are good ppl. Peace

I think the reason Michael like Dennis is because Dennis is such a respectful guy and he respects his power. Michael is also a monster. I mean he beat Dennis. To me is like mind blowing, you have to be stupid strong to achieve something like that. Respect to both of them. God Bless you guys and I hope Dennis will be alright in the end. 👍
I like that story :) In your opinion how much better is Denis's technique today (or rather when he faced Laratt) compared to last time you armwrestled him ? Give us your professional insight because to us casual fans it looked like he just powered through Larat's superior technique but maybe there's more than that?

Micheal I have a curiosity (if you can answer). Where does the term "King's move" used to describe this particular armwrestling move come from? I mean does it come from a position that reminds a particular gesture of a king or is it linked in some way to the first armwresteler who introduced this move in a match (maybe this armwresler was called King like you are called Moster for example)? I heart Devon talking about an old armwrestler that he called King George, very good in doing the "King's move". Does the term "King's move come from this Geoge? Sorry for this long question. Thanks.

Fun stories! Personally I doubt Denis will ever recover though. I say this because in recent videos his skin is quite grey and he also seems to be always wearing a sun hat. Chemotherapy makes your skin look grey and also makes you sunburn very easily (photosensitive). Putting the dots together makes me think he is being treated for cancer, but I seriously hope not. Also I saw the Gardone Riviera flyer on the wall behind you there. I was there last month on holiday. Had no idea there was some arm wrestling history there!
