elbow foul, bad referee.

The 'east people' are strongest..

Wow the disrespect XD but it's true, it did look like yordan was just a workout to devon XD

@@enzoazarraga5839 glad I wasn’t the only one thinking it lol

Pffff Devon under table larat 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

Doubt it somehow 😂

So true! He's once in a lifetime

So true

You did amazing. Highlight of this video for sure. I just don't know how people enjoy seeing the larger puller practically sitting on the floor.

@Public-jm1cb This is an odd question. You want to know why I don't like or respect a particular armwrestling move? Because I never said anything about it being invalid or illegal.

@Public-jm1cb I have a problem with the desperation move because I find it pathetic looking and if I ever want to introduce the sport to someone a Devon/MMT match would be the last I'd show them. No need to be a dick of course as I never insulted you but keep being you guy.

@Public-jm1cb That you don't see the difference between diving under the table and leaning into a flop press is hilarious. "Desperation move" is what Engin calls it. Maybe you should ask him what he thinks.

You make matches more entertaining you should announce every professional match in arm wrestling!

Not natty

Of course he’s not, it’s still impressive though.

​@@nandhunandhu8784every one at that level is on steroids. If you don't take steroids others will leave you behind. It's sad reality of arm wrestling.

@Nobody-fz2tz Sure. Tsornev isn’t. He’s in a texted federation. He needs to get on gear.

@@oldironsides4107and you’re with him 24/7 to see what he’s doing, right?

Absolute

How come World champion is nowhere near Being the strongest armwrestler ? He is World champ in juniors or ?

what a awesome match and tsonev is insane

Какая нахрен победа..ты локоть не видиш?

@@user-kr6mh7ib3b I’ve long since learned it’s not worth complaining about that stuff bc it won’t change. I wanted Tsonev to win but ah well.

@@user-kr6mh7ib3b What match are you watching?

Devon strength is a monster if he gets lock you up like the last game and you're done😅😅

Opening round from tsonev very impressive power

🐐

He never tries to finish fast because he doesn't have the explosivness to do it. His strenght lies in make the opponent tired. He let the opponet drain himself out of energy and then he just finishes the job. I think Devon wouldn't be that succesful if kings move was not allowed. You need to almost literally lift up the whole bodywheight of the guy to overcome that move. I don't think he is usually the strongest of the match, but he is the most resilient, and that coupled with a rule that let you literally extend totally your arm without losing makes him very hard to beat.

@@eldrickt.w.3525 I've only seen him use it once

​@@eldrickt.w.3525Devon has so much experience in technique and that is why he is so successful in arm wrestling.

@@xocomaoxI agree, technique is key in Devon, but also he follows a strategy consisting in drain the opponent's energy. His gifted physique is also key to execute that strategy. Others wouldn't be able to use it as they don't have Devon's endurance, which plays a big rol in his success.

Dewon desaided to fight with all lusers but not ciplenkov😁

@@Flash_5790 what are u talking about he fought as hard as he could and lost gracefully to Denis left handed

Tsonev hits are ridiculous. Does Tsonev beat Kody Merrit

@@Flash_5790 You are too stupid to comprehend what Devon is doing. :D And btw Denis is irrelevant...

Great effort. He gave it all he got and that's all he can do

The East has so many young monsters, I just hope a few young guys from the West step up, because at the moment, the West side is relying on the older veterans to compete while the East has a handful of guys that are just arriving and have huge potential.

@@crazyworld54321east has government funding we don’t it’s hard.

@@Z.O.D.. Funny people say this can you prove it. I heard some gergians saying that is not the truth or that is only a small support. Can you tell me where i can read more about that?

Big future? AW is shit money lol. Taking drugs to armwrestle aswell, incredibly dumb.

@@ricardopires4713 Nowhere, its a rumor spread by the one and only BlueBalls. In Bulgaria the money are like a 5 Months median salary (arround 800 euros) for Worlod title/ I have heard that the money are a bit better in Turkey and Russia. If you are not Elite you have to work. Nowadays everyone is talking from his A..SS.....

So good. Backed his frame 100% too. Those hits were coming hard and fast and he went for it. Credit to him.

sure very fast before Yordan hit🎉

Devon always absorbs both his opponents hit and their intentions. He learns what they are doing and plans his transition or next move accordingly. Always thinking and processing. Master of the mechanics and techniques. That’s seems to be why so often he looks like he’s on the defense and trying to keep from getting pinned and all the while he’s just processing and letting the other guy show what he has and expend energy. Always think he’s in trouble then next thing you know he dominates. Almost impossible to beat him if you are not extremely higher level skill and power.

That got Devon heated you could tell. I loved it lol

​@@DerekMahurinDevon loved it!💪💥🤣

​@@DerekMahurin I love have Devon reacted by saying, "Just say go." Just adding gas to a fire.

@@DerekMahurin Devon love to make that

You gotta know how to play the game. Love that.

Fast set-ups are not synonymous with good refing. There were some very cocked wrists well before the go at some points, but for the most part it seemed fine to me. A pretty serious example of this (and starting partially palm up) is during the Plamen Dimitrov vs Brandon Ellsessor match at 7:15 (but it got sorted out. Refing is very not easy in armwrestling).

For my part, I want to see armwrestling get back to the point where the competitors get more say in their grip like this event allowed. Part of armwrestling has historically been trying to get a better initial grip than your opponent. I feel sometimes the referees try too hard, and they end up fighting the efforts of both competitors, which is what makes so many matches draw out in length. I believe that all the initial gripping is part of the battle. So it was refreshing to see this.

@@Siberius- If your too weak to handle a slightly cocked wrist then you need to get stronger.

​@@abelanc1090 - Competitors are much stronger with even a tiny amount of wrist-bend, they generally fight for everything. Also it allows them to get into a hook a lot easier, or sometimes to just drive to the pad, keeping their hand flat instead of losing it. But then there is an argument that all matches should start with a slightly bent wrist, since starting with a straight wrist means that toprollers actually have an advantage. Since one can immediately just start toprolling (as far as where the pressure is), whereas with a hook you generally need to establish it first and THEN pull. I know Cyplenkov has talked about this. But that would be a deliberate new rule change. Hard to implement though, since there's a grey area for how much bend in the wrist there should be, so I don't see that changing in reality.

I watch it free today. Just wait one day. ;)

@@John3.36 this is honestly something that needs to be addressed in the sport lol. I paid for a lot of EvW fights only for them to be released publicly like a week or so later. From a payers perspective it feels like you got robbed, and from a non-payers perspective it feels like "why would you pay in the first place". I want to be able to add some sort of minute support to these athletes, but when they're public so soon it just feels like a waste.

​@@John3.36 One day? A week maybe. And how can you enjoy a match when you already know the result?

@@dylancurbjumper exactly why I don't pay for the events I know will be uploaded within a week after unless its a huge match

@@armwrestlingopera2064 pretty easy to avoid the results

But the ligaments are stronger, the weight is bigger, with his anthropometry of the hand, he is extremely uncomfortable for most.

He is still in his prime, the competition has just leveled up, with new contenders from around the world. Devon can still beat all north Americans and all his past competitors.

WTF are you talking about. He is probably in his most peak form rn

@@SaintAnthonny Not Levan

@@Nanamin69 he can still beat the ones he has beaten in the past, is levan one he has beaten...? No.

Evw yes, kott no. I think the audience in kott are very close

WAL was best for crowd interaction (fenced around the table really close) was perfect

Levan will need more oxygen prior to that😂😂

@@seiradummy9287 - The newly close spectators at KotT are taking Levan's oxygen that he needs to continue pulling! this man requires a lot of resources. They might have to revert back to when the spectators were all in white garb, silently sitting 20 metres away, and showing no apparent interest in the sport whatsoever.

@@eden4262 It’s close but still not quite at the level I want lol so I just included it

Grandpa' Uncle John!

Audio quality was earr*pe btw

He can't compete with the roids users 😂

@@williamyen6941 you think Devon is natty?

@@f4llenhite955 at least not abusing it, he's 48 and his hearts working just fine

I'm fairly sure it's just left arm stats. If it was right he'd be way higher

​@@williamyen6941 he's abusing it

Few elbow fouls by Devon

@@darkmanx3400 I am surprised they both even have elbows after that haha.

@@darkmanx3400 And a bunch by Yordan. The man even bumped the pin pad a few times with his forearm.

@@darkmanx3400 Yes

And he's not even training his left aside from practice pulls. Insane. He really is a walking experiment.

Actually, Devon's hand (grip) is quite weak. It's why he focuses on strap only. He is actually the best at manipulating the system, getting special treatment from referees. His pain in the ass wife. The list goes on

@@madmagyver9981 - Nobody who knows what they're talking about thinks that Devon's wrist flexion or particularly pronation are weak. Not Engin Terzi, Neil Pickup, etc. The fact that you said Devon's "grip" makes me think you might be new to the sport (which is cool). No one is talking about Devon's grip. Devon doesn't need grip for anything, he ain't holding onto anything, he wants his opponent to make the mistake of holding onto him. He focuses on straps because that's the game. Your comment got very cringe towards the end there.

@@Siberius- levan said it best, just before the match with Devon. "It's called arm wrestling! Not strap wrestling!"

​@@madmagyver9981 That's one of the du mbest thing I have ever heard.

Sam! The party arm can still hang!

Party arm?

@@kovy689 the arm that is not trained.

@@kovy689 Devon hasn’t trained his left for 2 years

Why would you be surprised? Devon’s left has held the WAL hammer and destroyed Pushkar and many others

Nein .das glaube ich nicht 😂

He can handle Cadorette's press.

@@annihilationHaven He has handled Jerry's press, but can he now. Jerry did beat Genadi.

@@derongalston6051 we need to see jerry asap to see wether his training is all hype or not

Ma se devon stava giocando. L ultimo round ha solo fatto capire che stava facendo solo un allenamento

John gave this sport life but devon took this sport to levels I never thought where possible if covid never happen arm wrestling would of already been a well established sport by now.

Correct.. KOT and EvW seem like a ballet recital. Give me that wwf atmosphere instead
