@@adamstein7302 If Todd gets him of the inicial start it may, but if Devon holds Todd up Todd looses. On the long run Todd looses. On the long run Todd already lost. There aren't many people in the world who can stand with Laratt when the game is on after the inicial hit. Todd's side pressure is amazing but Laratt's hold is just a brick wall. Also, regarding the talk about the kings move, I also don't agree with that move, and if I made the rules that move would be banned, but so would be the "lay on the opponent arm with all body weight" like Bresnan, Chaffe and even Todd do sometimes - for example. Larrat is simply using what the rules allow to get past his worst so he can get to his best.

I reckon he's ducking Pushkar, he doesn't want to get embarrassed. Wherever Andrey isn't, Levan goes there. And when Andrey is there Levan is a no show.

This Makaaev is so ludacrious and miserable with all his pointings and the rest of it... But probably over the years, after he faces some Chafee-s and others, gona learn some humbleness
He is always like that and I don't think he could change, it's his ATTITUDE. Makeev competes in this sport for years already and he got high level results. But yeah, he's a cocky jerk-ass .
Ye...I do not really like that style. The only person who I can take any shit from is Bagent, but he is not just a BS but a great showman....but this Makeev is a different story....I hate these type of ppls
Agreed. He is probably the armwrestler I dislike the most. A grown man who complains like a child every single match. Doesnt matter if he wins, losses or theres a re-start, he will complain every single time.
Dude is a giant baby, zero sportsmanship when losing and acts like every hit that's 1.5 from the pin pad is a pin.
Great video, thanks for uploading. Can you please put the weightclasses and names of the pullers on future videos? It would greatly help beginners like me.
Damn these guys in Moldova don't play around with fouls. Really strict referees, I like that.
Best referees I've ever seen outside the WAF World Championship. No doubt.
European refs are on top of their game. WAL needs that.
I want todd here😂
Who is the guy that top rolled Genadi? German or Swedish Sounding. Coolest combo of pullers I think I've seen at this tournament. Thanks for sharing Blue
Toddzilla is the boss)
yes, he's amazing, he won most of matches even though last week he was in war with marcio
His strength for his weight (and age) is incredible. The only time I ever see him lose is if he gets flashed.
Incredible how strong he is for a mid 50yr old dude..he just beat freaking Barboza last week and then he owns Krazimir and like 3 other guys
He's mega strong, John always raves about his side pressure.
@@26Noire yea he's also much heavier you idiot.
Crazy to see how many amazing pullers there are at heavyweight. Used to just be Hutchings and Kostadinov. Now there's Prudnik, Babaev, Makeev...all complete studs.
Vladislavs krasovskis vs Justin Bishop, what happened? In video I only see a foul or something and the match ended with Vladislavs victory?? You need edit in the way whole match show up continually in video, not half of it. Great video anyway! Thanks man. Did Todd Hutching have a match against Vladislavs? or Prunik vs Vladislavs?..
How I missed this video.... That's amazingggggggggg
So many grate matches in one tournament 👏👏👏
Nice highlight man... some good matches!!
i like this tables and pads, not that wal's ones also referees are much better than in wal
I disagree. These guys were calling hairline movements elbow fouls. I mean, Pushkar had Trubin beat fair and square. I like that they do ref's grip every time though.
@@saltedllama2759 trubin stopped pushkar....... Pushkar was gonna lose eventually
@@engr.h.mbasirijaz1249 nhaa..
Jesus, never saw Andreev get slowly crushed like that. Toddzilla has got such freaky power.
How's that a 2nd elbow foul for pushkar at the end? Where the hell was this ref for Devon vs Todd??
bart is a joke
Todd did alright considering he was just in a WAR with Barboza.
Not true. Todd probably had beatup tendons and a beatup elbow that didn't get full recovery. These are very important aspects when it comes to stopping a strong hit from an opponent. And we all know what happens when Todd stops a hit.
He's a beast. By the way where was Levan?? Is he avoiding Pushkar?
@@kasparov9 I'm not sure if levan lives as close as they do. But yeah he can't compete with the top guys in this tournament. He better just prep for November
@@kasparov9 why do you assume that when someone doesn't show up they are automatically hiding from somebody?
It's a common theme in the armwrestling world, has Levan ever pulled Andrey? Levan is enjoying some success of late but he is yet to pull the best on earth and this was a prime opportunity, it's not like there are 10 elite events every year. I reckon he's ducking Pushkar, he doesn't want to get embarrassed. Wherever Andrey isn't, Levan goes there. And when Andrey is there Levan is a no show.
Best tournament I've ever seen. Great lineup! Way way way better than Vendetta. 100%!!!
Thank you, Ryan! You were the best operator in this poorly streamed tournament.
Thank you brother :) really glad you enjoyed the video. :)
Poorly streamed? Wtf are you on about? It was in 1080p and ran through perfectly smooth. Camera setup / cutting was also good.
Yes, indeed all of that was a top notch. What I meant, was that the cameraman didn`t show the important matches at all.
Ryan did you end up pulling anyone famous? What class were you in, 85-95kg?
We need another event like this. Just awesome
it's really sad to think that this was Pushkar's last tournament and that at any moment you could leave, in his case fate wanted him to be involved in that damn accident, 2 months later, unaware of the fact that he would disappear, it's really horrible. You will remain one of the best ever. What you brought to the world of arm wrestling no one will forget. Goodbye friend. RIP Andrey Pushkar.🕊❤
Jordan Tsonev looks very strong and clever, gives everyone a good fight.
Nice video, Thanks
How did you fair on the day?
Did you commentate the live show Ryan ?
Соревнования супер! Прудник красава))))) Тодзилу вмял в подушку
Тодзила со стартом дико тормозит, зато если поймал, мощи столько, что с любым постоит
Дмитрий Шевчук при этом он старик,и пиво употребляет постоянно)может у него генетика такая.
Great vid, Ryan! Thank you! I don't like that game of speed though, whoever starts faster wins.... Leaves too much room for borderline false starts.
Yeah Prudnik and Makeev try to flash everyone. Prudnik is ok but Makeev is the king of False Starts
Hey WAL, please take notes on the refereeing.
What a tournament lol great footage bru...
Todd Hutchinson that was awesome after armwrestling Marcio Barboza last week and then now. Great work guy!
Oleg! I love Oleg! He's a great arm wrestler
6:08 beautiful
Awesome referees!!! Great edit!
Todd did great, and most of those guys showed great sportsman-ship, well *most* of them did anyway :p
not Makeev
makeev seems like a lil whiney bitch about everything. pointing to the pin pad when it wasnt even close, like cmon buddy. he is definitely good but just quit bitching.
couldnt agree more.
Amazing video , what else can I say
Thank you Brother
What a difference in power between those WAL champions and these Eastern European champions. Like they are on a totally different level.
8:35 lmao.. I was like "wtf" when I saw that live. And how quick Ayello got off the stage after that .. like "okay let's get out of here before something even worse happens" :D
indicates the power of Pushkar - Ayello is no joke but got beaten like a child by AP
Yep, expected more resistance from Ayello even if he isn't world class. Where did you watch it live?
They had a livestream on KZhead. 1080p and everything. It was perfect. Huge props to Moldova Cup.
@@Lieutenant_Scrotes 2 years late, but Ayello probably didn't resist because he knew it was pointless and he might as well save his energy.
All great players in one
Pushkar didnt foul!!!in my opinion i mean com e on!!! But thank u for the video great matches!!! I cant wait for my turn 👍🏻
Awesome.
Trubin made about 25% face gains
Ryan you asked Travis about Moldova and Oleg and he said that he's ready, then at the opening you asked him about a match with Oleg, and he said that he hoped Andrey tires Oleg first before he has to pull him, then he just doesn't compete? Did you find this strange that he pulled out after making a big deal about the whole Moldova thing?
He's a bitch imo, doesn't really compete against anyone prevalent but talks like he's the shit.
Тод просто красавец)))
I kept waiting to see you rip toddzillas arm off ryan lol keep up the great content as always love the show 💪👍🤙✌🤘😎
Ryan has nothing for Todd. Don't know what youre talking about lol.
One of last fight for legend Andrey...
Ryan do you know when in Moldova time the supermatch between bagent and zohk is going to be?
December 14
Huh?? So Bagent wont take him on now in Moldova? Kind of weird going all that way and not competing??
@@ryanbluebowen so this is actually set?? Its legit??
These table pads are so much better than those in wal.
If Todd train to stop top roll better he will be unstoppable.
If Larat and "under the table" match was here it would be 3-0 Larrat easy....I don't know why you and Brzenk never say anything positive bout Larrat? Great vid and keep up the good work
The guy never showed up to a Zloty and never will. He's not a complete puller. He's a supermatch puller. In a tournament he would be flashed every time.
ryan, you got more air-time than anyone on the live stream...XD
Todd how can you possibly be that strong man
Prudnik is a beast! Wow
who won this round?
Moldova 2018... the best from arm wrestling...
Does anyone know how tall rustam is? People said he's 175, but he aint looks taller than Sasho andreev which is only 163
Sasho looks like his arm is going to break so deep in the hook like that. Scary.
Yes and he ALWAYS pull like this. That man is gonna suffer an elbow injury some day
I'm impressed some guys were able to beat Todd Hutchings
A better job than the live broadcast! Whoever was controlling which match to view was clearly not an armwrestler!!! Who was the guy you beat Ryan? Ive never seen him before. Vadim Stetsyuk i have tho 😉
Tim...he was from the Ukraine. Can't remember his name off the top of my head.
Pound for Pound Armwrestling The guy from Ucraine is Marius Baica. :)
Thank you sir
i wonder if krasi thought it was a pin against toddzilla and kinda let off the gas. either way, todd is a monster at 50 plus years old. crazy strong.
I think once Krasimr figured out Todd stopped him he gave up since it is pointless to go into a hook war with Hutchings.
- Thank You Ryan
It doesn't look like a pin on some of the matches but they call it a win?
Good quality.
I like this sport, there's no blood and no violence
Fkn love toddzilla man. He's such an amazing arm wrestler. Respectful, strong as fuuuuck for his weight? My God he's a fricking monster.
Todd, Both times his opponent had a jump on him.
And yah East is stronk! The western concept of the "world" should not be limited to the Geographical west or the Commonwealth. East is ripe with strength as well as wisdom. And you are invited for the grand experience!
Great refereeing. The flash pins are bogus though. Todd would have blown through makeevs arm if there was actually some back pressure to start. WAL and WAF both have great aspects about them. WAF just has the flash pin problem. Not a fan of that at all.
Трубин брат ЛУДШИЙ
Wow, what a tournament
Toddzilla for a reason, the king of all monster the king of side pressure, he is too stronggggg
What was Travis Bagent excuse for not entering the tournament???
Derick Hilton trubin, zhok and pushkar
hahahahahah xD
He had an exhibition match with John Brzenk.
mouth training?
He s the best ever left handed armwrestler in the who doesn t compete!:))
the fact justin bishop is there is a testament to his progress as an armwrestler
I can't believe there are some arm wrestlers out there who can flash todlzilla in his weight class😅
Todzilla just need to improve his start to break those morons.
In my opinion Todd was just worn out in the last few matches. He did beat some very tough opponents. Not including the very recent war with Barboza.
Há algo mais Um amor uma Luz morons?
He's stronger than the entire weight class. Just a tad too slow
Who is that guy who beat todd, ive never seen him before. Also why was todd not gripping lower to force the hook?
Lol at the doped comment😂 that is Alan Makeev, one of the top pullers from russia, his sister is a multiple world champion also. He is actually of the few guys at the top level who do not look like they are on gear. He has none of the signs that most do
So because someone is fast, they are on steroids?
everyone is on roids in this sport you fucking idiots what are you even arguing about
Makeev is a whiny douche. He needs to pipe down instead of making a scene everytime his elbow is off the pad.
@@TimmyTurner421 every damn match he whines about something
Who is the longer hair guy at 6:28
Prudnyk. Lost to Pushkar in the finals.
всё круто
Bishop needs to get to WAF like now. World class!
Prudnik looking strong as hell.
Until he met Pushkar. That was over within about a milisecond :)
Yeah... But Pushkar is also in another weight class and I always expect him to dominate.
Prunik looks bigger than previous years or it's just a camera angle??
I like how strict they are with elbow fouls
the videos not in sequence!!
How was that a pin at 0:38?!
It wasn't, Sasho got robbed !
Damn, some of those dudes are no joke. Seeing Todd getting flashed like that surprises me
Yea Todd is 53 and doesn't quite have the speed to stop lots of these younger guys, not much he can do about that anymore.
Ean E agreed
mindaugis vs cherkasov: 0:04 hutchings: 0:20 1:07 2:22 2:52 4:31 (hutchings vs sasho) 5:14 5:57 rustam vs makeev: 2:11 6:07 yordan vs makeev (Lolz) 6:18 yordan vs prudnyk 7:53 mike ayello vs petro marhindt 8:57 kurdecha vs genadi kvikvinia
my shit
7:51 why didn't they let Pushkar and genadi pull ???
armwrestling events most of the times remind me of nascar racingz most of the time no crowd at all
