Brzenk is pure class...You can clearly see what arm wrestling means to him..I'v never seen a more dedicated person who is so involved ...I can guarantee if he had ever chosen another pathway academically and chose another profession he would have been ruling that particular field with the zest and passion he has.
I had no idea this world of armwrestling or John Brzenk even existed. I went to my local independent video rental store and saw pulling john on the shelf and rented it. I think this dude is awesome.
@coltleader well i believe he slid his elbow back, which is legal. you're not allowed to lift your elbow up, but you're allowed to move your elbow anywhere on the pad.
There's a Richard Lupkes compilation which contains footage of him beating Goodridge a few times without much difficulty, so count me out of that group.
I thought John beat him more times than the other way around? I've only seen a handful of videos - all depicting the latter - but that's 4-5 out of many dozens of matches they've had.
Actually - and John is no doubt best pound for pound - I don't think anyone living has witnessed Gary "Big Daddy" Goodrich lose at armwrestly...or have they? Beat John many times, me thinks...
actually - lol - yeah I've since sceen footage of Gary Loosing (thanks) to guys like Cleve Dean. Anyone point me to footage of John Beating either Dean or Big Daddy?
Better than most. But probably not world class. So i think he could probably close the #3. They have super strong wrists, crushing grip is secondary i think.
