holybuckets thank you for the coolest comment so far...you are awesome! And we will try and work on that golden buzzer! hahaha

ARMTV thank you for all the hard work you put into this!!! Like Christmas morning for many of us every time you post a vid now haha!! Woooohooo keep em comin!!! :)))

@@Mika-pv4bw that’s how it was for the community back in the early army’s days (pre KZfaq). Gary is the OG

@@Mika-pv4bw hahaha 😅 you ain't LYING BRO CHRISTMAS MORNING SON SON 💪💯😅 NO CAP

Always hitfirst

It's simply amazing how he makes it look so easy! And keep in mind he's wresting the best in the biz!

Love to see everyone get Brzenked. Best armwrestler of all time, all things considered. Travis? One of the best perhaps, certainly the most entertaining and advocate to the sport. Travis like a harlem globe Trotter of armwrestling.

@@ctjdo Travis could do so much more in the sport if he wanted to. But it seems he's content to sit at the top of the mountain collecting paychecks doing his gigs. Nothing wrong with that at all. To each man his own. He chooses his own path like the rest of us. Some people get bothered he doesn't take it more seriously anymore but as long as he's taking care of his family, that's what matters to him.

Ronin the Troll Slayer what are some things you think he could do differently? Interested to know. Like if you were travis and had his same set of skills...how would you use them?

He is by far my favorite arm wrestler...

nice

женя женя awesome comment..bravo!

Denis is better but Brzenk has his place in the pound&pound

People need to stop giving denis so much love. He was on top for what a year. And he didn't arm wrestling that many people when on top.

@@santafeschehl A year? He started destroying everyone back in 2011. Since then he beat every top guy that mattered. Devon was the only one he hadn't but he corrected that 2 years ago. Now he only needs to beat Levan to prove he's still the best.

Lmfao

@@Southernbread686 oque significa lmfao?seria uma seita ou iluminat ?

@@miriamalmeida6687 O Cotovelo Voador

Yeah that was Steve Rao too. Steve was actually a beast in a hook. John just made him look like an amatuer.

@@danieljulian5172 no shit Steve is a beast There are definitely levels to this sport John was just from another planet 🌎 lol

Travis was not pulling hard you dumb ass

John Berserk

At what time was it?

@@mountainsew7672 27:21 and you're welcome.

@@MrLangam thanks ! I had missed that

How can it be? It must be an illusion.

he never needs to go under for opps that aren't top tier

A solid hook match with a toproll reversal by todd! holy shit hahaha the days before injury took such a toll.

i thought so too. then I thought I must be smoking too much crack and its time for bed

@@rileyneufeld7001 since when did shoulder press become a controversial move? lmao

It's even more amazing seeing Michael Todd standing up on a match and not lying down on his bed!

@@peterpeters4111 9:33 yes indeed

Vs. everyone

Yes but their all way better than they were then obviously and John is too old unfortunately

@@Dedreaded In his prime, John could have torn Travis' arm off and slapped him with it...... which he desperately needs. Bagent is an arrogant tool. Absolutely loved it when Alexey shut him up in "Pulling John"!

@@Danny-uz9zb 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@Danny-uz9zb its just his way of enjoying life and then though hes the arrogant one but judging others like this what does that make you and yes its true on what you say.

@@Dedreaded What does that make me?? Observant. Are you trying to say that observing that another person is obnoxious or arrogant makes me arrogant? I guess that would make you arrogant also..... for judging me. That's a pretty stupid philosophy.

I bet if scientists would look into it they would find some kind of anomaly in his arms. He was insanely strong for his weight. Decades of experience helped too. He's the G.O.A.T. for a reason!

@Tony tone He beat Lupkes and Travis multiple times. You don't know what you are talking about kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fdllrax10d7Thmg.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eLZje7Wizr3deJc.html

Tony tone bro! Tone down the attitude. No one was speaking rude and you just came out of no where with the name calling. First of all check your dates. John brzenk was crushing people before Pushkar became dominant.

@@sonyx4500 I mean, I have to agree this time.

Crazy how this is him past his prime

i wonder why....john is small but fucking stong? good genetics maybe?

@@rymanuelcastro273 everything. He's the whole package. Incredible strength, tons of experience, great technique..

@@rymanuelcastro273 genetics yes. He also started pulling at a young age so his tendons and ligaments were rock solid by the time he was an adult. Maricio is much stronger but his tendons and ligeaments were not as developed. Thats why when john locks into a hook, its over.

rymanuel castro john ain't small

@@rymanuelcastro273 his neurological efficiency is probably off the charts, combined with skeletal leverages, muscle insertions and large muscle fibers, he's a genetic anomaly.

😀😀😀

If Michael Todd joins the WWE, his ring name will be "The Undertabler"

☝️ this

They weren't really the best at that time. M.TOdd was just a punk who used to get whooped left and right

Timmy Turner The forearm on him!

john pulls marcio's backpressure right?

Poor Marcio

and travis beat john on the right at 18:25

@Anthony 223 lololololo

@Anthony 223 Lmao. 1Chaffee beat Denis once, by an elbow foul and lost twice by pin, all in Vendetta. 2 Chaffee beat Bagent many times too 3 Now look back at ur stupid comment and feel shame haha

@Anthony 223 John pulled as many people and wasn't tired, John has more endurance and Travis didn't lose on purpose.

Anthony 223 this is such an uneducated, travis fanboy comment it hurts

yeah...that didn't last forever. It wasn't that he didn't like the camera I think but whether I was worthy or not. I earned that respect over time with him.

Ripcookiethief yah he likes it now, he was shy back then omg John had braces!

@@armtv You might disagree but he's an absolute douche for that lmao.

Brzenk like ‘oh gosh’ with those braces then proceeds to destroy everyone 👏

@@P4PKing He was young back then

😝👍🙏

Protruding forehead

haha

İf him come near me imma pop his face how bout that ahshshd

Beldors Beldoes izi travis. 7:36 26:50 3.1

@Beldors Beldoes that got restarted and he lost.

He let him win one, you idiot.

Not quite. Jesus fills that slot. John is pretty darn impressive though.

nice...and I do.

armtv Share them! Loved this vid🤩

Yeah this was kinda awesome

☝️

John 50+ beat Marcio

thank you

You are old school man!

😝

ARMTV Old School-ish!! I came on late but I think I watched the entire back catalog within about a year. Ask Jared Cook some time how obsessed I was. LOL

Lion and hedgehog 1 lol

USAA organization at the time has the rules that if you didn’t gain position there was no foul. You were given a verbal “put elbow down” I think 🤔 something like this. The rule was eventually changed to coordinate with the WAF. I think Leonard said we are not doing any pullers favors by letting them float here then go there and foul out.

Still isn't that much more popular than back then.

@@sonyx4500 I hope ur joking..?? I give u the benefit of being sarcastic, i don't think anyone would say that seriously. ?? 😕

@@willstuart4504 Dude Over the Top Tournament from 1986 still is the biggest Armwrestling Tournament ever. They even made a Movie about it. It was much more popular than now.

@@sonyx4500 The movie did little to advance the sport mate, John Brzenk said it himself. Now with the internet, and guys like Devon, John , schoolboy , denis ....it's 10× more popular. That's my opinion on it. But I get where you're coming from.

@@willstuart4504 Yes it didn't advance it. But it isn't much different today. The Armwrestlers are taking more Peds today. Thats why there are stronger guys now. But its still a niche Sport. I don't know of anyone in my home country who knows who Denis Tsyplenkov or Devon Larrat is. But many People still Remember Over the Top with Stallone.

In the USA maybe

@@nvmffs not only USA whole world, please check the Guinness world records

@@maneshdananjaya390 I know but if you check why they added him there you'll notice it wasn't for any objective reason. They just decided so. And that was before Denis appeared. I think he has surpassed him a long time go

@@nvmffs Dennis took steroid and much bigger than John, but that small John crush all the giants in AW, Richard Lupcas, Johnny Walker, Cleave Deen, Michael Cox, Dave Patton, Allen Fisher, Ron Bath, Todd Hutchins, Devon Larret, Travis Bagnet, Jerry Cardiact, Dennis Cyplencove, Andrey Pushkar, Marcio Barbose, Todd Michael, Dave Cheff, Paul Lin, Mat Mask, Chance Show, Alexy Samarakkov at the age of 59 Alexy Vevoda and uncounted Arm Wrestlers.

Thank you. Yeah, after all of these years I loved this one particularly!

@@armtv by the way, do you know of any local clubs?? I'm still in Oceanside

@@Ewahl91 I can ask my buddy in San Marco (Harold) I don't think he is pulling as much lately but he may know who is. Allen Fisher in San Diego is always pulling. He is a great person to reach out to. I'll get back to you if I hear of something. but with the internet there is no reasons not to connect with someone and get involved. You should go to a tournament locally and meet people that way. I think there was just a big event at the LA expo last month.

@@armtv thanks Gary! I always forget I have Fisher so close.. I was planning to attend the expo last month but never made it.

thats the goal

@@armtv The day I see an ARMTV shirt in the audience at WAL with a camera in tow would be epic.

😝

ARM TV offered a way at only 10 bucks a month if you signed up for the year... we could have done what Netflix did for the TV and movie industry. I met thousands of Armwrestler’s and asked them for their support... if they all listened we would be hosting 20k tournaments every month for a life time. Sadly, it didn’t come to fruition because At 500 members we could not sustain... then YT put us down. Sadly... no cool weekly updates like we were doing even before KZfaq.

🤣
