@@snake5305 yeah that’s crazy I heard about him arm wrestling back in the day but I had no idea we was still doing it I always knew him as an mma fighter.
The moment of silence was really powerful. Shows behind all the trash talk. The solid community of incredible athletes and arm wrestlers!! Also when Prudnik was talking about the practice pull he claimed to be faking or whatever? It was odd because I’m the video, he was practicing for Michael and had no idea he would be pulling Devon, of course he was actually pulling and listening to Devon teach him some basics!!
I think Evgeny clearly understands the basics... lol 😆 He has been a world class puller for years. But yeah, he said that he was joking by "letting" Devon pull with him. But as you could see on Evgeny's face, he almost cracked up laughing. Because you're right, he didn't know at the time that he was pulling Devon, because he was getting ready for MMT. 😄 So you got that one right. Good Game tonight, brother! 😄💪🏼👌🏼🙏🏼 Can't wait too see the matches at tonight's ultra mega packed card at East Vs West 5. ☺️💪🏼
@@DefferJohn Thank you for reading my comment and replying. I really appreciate it. This is definitely going to be an incredible card ! Possibly the last time you’ll see all these people in the same place again. So many thought Devon would never go, but Engin outsmarted Devon by presenting such a card with so many legendary people in attendance. Engin knew that Devon would literally move the sun and the stars to be at that event!! It’s almost like everything fell perfectly into place for him. Not only that but he has John Brzenk and Levan Saginashvili saying he’s no#2 in the world. I don’t care who you are, those two opinions carry more weight than most. After watching this video all the signs are there. Devon’s going to win and we’re going to see a Devon vs Dennis come out of this. Dennis right now believes it to be a good comeback match when it could be wake up call that he’s not ready yet. I guess we’ll wait n see. Everyone thinks Ermes or Dave will get next crack at Levan when either can pull it off. I don’t see Dennis ever being able to either. He’s great for the sport and great to see him back but I seriously doubt he can reach the levels he will need to today to be competitive. John Brzenk is an amazing example of someone who still is performing at top levels for his age but that’s definitely not the norm but a really rare for someone to perform at a professional level amongst the world’s best. A rare feat for any athlete and one that very few accomplish. Too many make attempts at comebacks and would have been way better off being remembered for who they were not last attempts at bringing back the glory days when they were champ!! Thanks again! Take care and enjoy the event! I can’t wait, I’m watching it with my son. Take care.
@@DefferJohn i think Devon gave him advice to him how to pull with full time kingsmover, as Devon himself. So it's up to Prudnik to follow or ignore it
Learning English is respectable? This whole conference was a embarrassing mess because the communication was NOT there. I would’ve had more respect if he had Ray translate what he really wanted to say.
When 2 very nice guys try to trash talk. Far too much respect between all these guys to effectively trash talk. They are super competitive and full of respect.
I loved how Devon is humble and passion. He did appretaite and respect Evgeny efforts for speaking english. It is always interesting to see Devon in press conference even if we all know that it's about trask-talking
True.. Devon could’ve humiliated the guy for his lack of English.. you’re the first person in these comments that I’ve seen acknowledge how kind he was towards Evgeny.
Armwrestling is a great sport but I find it very unlikely Gary would be intimidated by any trash talk the armwrestlers can muster 😂. After all he faced some of the best fighters in their time in both kickboxing and mma. Facing the likes of Jérôme Le Banner, Peter Aerts and Mark Hunt in kickboxing, or Fedor and Igor Vovchanchyn in mma requires a tremendous amount of courage.
@@Slaskhask ...and Marco Ruas, and Mirko Cro Cop, and Don Frye, Tom Erikson, and Mark Shultz to name a few more. The man has fought literally a whos who list of the scariest heavyweight fighters that have ever walked the planet, and has beaten many of them. Came SO CLOSE to knocking Fedor out, had him on queer street. Absolute legend. Sadly, he now suffers from some cognitive disorders.
Gotta love Big Daddy.I have watched most all his MMA fights.Just started watching his Armwrestling fights.This guy is the rare athlete who makes it to the top of two sports.I know for a fact nobody intimidates Gary Goodrich, same as Devon, no fear of anything.Gary would fight, and did fight everyone, the best of the best he fought, with no fear, whatsoever.Even when he lost, he would come back and rematch.One of the best fighters, and most exciting fighters ever.
I feel bad for Canadian after Devon promised his friend Matt and him will return victorious. Matt has no chance against Sandris. Devon against Evgeny, maybe if he’s better than against Levan or Cyplenkov. I doubt it. Unless referee let him do his queen’s move.
EvenGAY seems fitting considering how much he loves to talk about Balls. Sadly it seems he forgot his at the airport because he won't accept Devon's bet.
Even Denis' arm looks smaller then you know who's. The only one with skeletal structure (wide shoulders) is Devon. But there's more to it : Genetics, Gear, willingness to risk, longevity, etc..
He's really getting under devons skin with the balls stuff. If you didn't catch the reference at the end, Devon is referring to him being a killer in the military when he was his age.
12:20 Prudnik's laugh. Gotta say though, in the end Devon won the troll war with his winner takes all challenge, but Prudnik was probably a little bit more funny and he definitely deserves credit for trolling in a language that's foreign to him.
@@youtubecensoringcomments7427 Prudnik didn't put his prize money up. The moment that happened Devon won the troll war. Sorry man, it's over. Maybe tomorrow Prudnik will win the match or maybe he won't, but today he lost the troll war, without a doubt. I thought he was winning right up until he lost, but Devon challenged him to put his money where his mouth is and Evgeny wouldn't do it. It was all over after that.
Prudnik looked completely unfazed throughout the press conference and was ashamedly raised the bar whenever he could, when you try to trash talk someone like that it's like talking into a mirror, no wonder Devon was shaking while instinctively hooking the mic, he had to confront his own reflected bs on his own.
@@sebastiansullivan4770 I have not seen the match, and I wont believe it until I see it. And I wont see it unless it is released in an official source. I wont watch any vids which are posted against the wishes of the official source. I hope you're right and I hope I was wrong. Nevertheless much love to Engin for organizing such a great event. Respect to everyone in the armwrestling community.
im glad they are more joking. these types are press conferences are silly to begin with. it only works with a few sports. i usually dont watch these but this one was good.
They always have called it a fight, because that is what it is. You are fighting to win and it takes a lot out of you and afterwards you will feel like you have been beat up. That's facts!! So yeah they are fighting one another.
@@fish4191 he actually dropped allot of weight according to him he dropp3d from 180kgs to around 150kgs which is a step in the right direction for his health
@banditchief everyone larrat beat prudnik did too look I'm a larrat fan all the way I'm from Winnipeg but face it all these new guys are bigger and stronger
