i was on the edge of my seat when i saw this the first time..... i'v always wanted to see these two go at it, and i wanted john to put travis in his place. john is the man and hes very humble.

Brzenk is naturally right handed and Bagent is a natural lefty. Though Bagent's beaten Brzenk in the past on right, this recent match for the two ended in Brzenk's favor. You can see Brzenk easily posts the top roll attack by Bagent. I don't know why Bagent doesnt use his back pressure against Brzenk. He must know that Brzenk can deal with Bagent's back pressure by going into the 'inside' as Brzenk puts it. As he did in this match.

i've never seen a more back-and-forth battle... that was huge.

For impatient poeple, match starts at 4:55.

Brzenk has more victories over bagent then losses

THAT is side pressure, my friends. Wow. I love watching this match.

Holy shit look at John's wrist angle from about 5:20 onwards. That takes unbelievable strength to do.

that was a good battle once they finally got to it.

Come on John, you are the best for ever. Eres el mejor John por siempre.

when was this? brzenk is struggling so much with bagent...

Brzenk is completely natural.

Brzenk is the best of all times

correct john's name in your video title dude ;)

You don`t need roids. If you`re strong, have proper technique, ect, you will be good. Steroids only makes it easier to do what your body is already capable of....but, the non-juicing people can sometimes beat the juicers.

He regripped. Not sure what these japanese rules were, but in most tournies stateside, you have a chance to grip with the other puller. If you don't feel comfortable, both pullers are forced to a ref's grip. The ref is to ensure that this is the most fair grip possible. I think the crowd was just cheering for the drama between these two giants.

What did Travis do at 1:55 - 2:00 that people clapped at?

correct the title dude...

Why didn't they do left handed as well?

05:06 what kind of sound was that.

Because both wrestlers has to accept the grip - none of them want the other to have a starting advantage point. And they're both trying to get a little turn or upside on the other whilest the judges try to square them out.

Arm wrestling tournaments have entire brackets for the other hand. You don't simply get to the finals, wrestle right then go left. I'm not sure that this japanese tournament had a left handed bracket however.

Hehe nice arm wrestling oh yeah Background Music is Pantera - Walk ^^.

john best stamina wrestler

thumbs up if you came here after watching Pulling John

Pantera in the background! GO BRZENK!

john is the best of the best beast. wy 5min for waiting of 15sec wrestling.?

fuckin MONSTER!!

Interesting to see Travis humble up 5:25 minutes into the clip...

brzenk kicked his ass

if travis had just pressed, it would have been all over because he had total hand control

John Is The Best

GO!STOP!

someone in the audience sounds like a gremlin

bagent is not a loug mouth. bagent is one of the best things that has ever happened to the sport. the guy is not mean spirited...he is having fun...remember ali and his loud mouth which became a voice for the world...arm wrestling needs some color which bagent brings...and as far as Brzenk goes...yes....as they say...pound for pound he is the best...the best ever...

@RezoChigogidze Yes Brzenk is the best

Why don't they just start with the strap so I don't have to click 5 minutes in to a 5:30 minute clip. Awesome 5:30 minutes though...

@19tc85 probably to psyche himself up.

If Brzenk shows this performance on 13th March against Arsen he will be wiped away...Arsen blew Bagent before Bagent realised what happened..6 times...Everytime Bagent was like" Ahh what ??"

Travis is a south paw

It was a draw match !!! travis beat him after that !!

Travis won the second match.

yeah, begent is very loudmouth.

Travis, quit putting on a show. You knew that you couldn't beat John even on your best days. Delaying it for 5 min to get the people on your side, only to be humbled by the master in just 15 seconds.

hi i was the refery in that match and john brzenk cheated with his elbow

I arbitrate complicated to the end!!! he had to take a beating!!!!

Brezenk juices! Jk, but probably!

unless you're devon larratt

brzenk ended up losing to travis though.... this should 1 pull. The rest of them you can find on youtube. Im pretty sure that this was the only pull Brzenk won in this tournament against Travis.... once they went to left handed, it was over.

cel mai bun e Ion Oncescu normal!!!!!

i wanna c another brzenk n voevoda. i never saw voevoda wrestle b4. he was much better then travis....damn cant remember chumpstain that got raped last name *sarcasm*

he weighs 50 kg more than brzenk, and brznek just smoked him rigbht hand, lsot left hand, but bagent will smoke him left hand easy ;)

gremlin =))

then your not a very good refery then are you(?)

no 1 wil beat travis left handed
