@@rsaran1288It’s more useful to master one or two techniques then to just be good at all of them. This was all the experience and knowledge of the rules that got Michael the win.
King's move is so much more interesting when they aren't allowed to put a shoulder below the table. This looks way more like armwrestling than the WAL garbage.
yup, its completely fair when you are not allowed to drop your humerus into a declining angle. if your humerus goes into declining angle then you cant get pinned even if your arm is fully extended.
This is probably an unpopular opinion but Michael is one of the fairer pressers imo. His shoulders are more square than most other pressers and he never crosses center table. The guy can press, thats for sure
almost every press/flop presser just sits their body onto their press, the way michael did it, also the way ermes did with levan, is how it should be done
Tiro alla fune 3 braccio di ferro 1. Vergognoso vedere un gigante come Tood sdraiarsi sotto al tavolo.. inguardabile! Bravissimo Frank, sempre più forte!
Frank is phenomenally strong. Anybody would have a problem against Frank in the weight class. His hand and wrist is ridiculous. Michael seems to still have a dead hand. He left everything on the table and fought til the very end. Like him, hate him, he did it, with 25% of an arm. Kudos Michael and blessings.
And the fact that Frank always trained like it is an hobby is fucking crazy, this thing almost pisses me off, because if I were him, I would train seriously to be among the strongest, he has an exaggerated natural potential, comparable to John Brzenk!
congratulations to Frank. If he had 70% of Kamil's press, Todd might complain again. Todd had a poor performance. He obviously had a lot of stress. I expected something more.
The ovation that the fans gave to Michael was absolutely Amazing. Good for you MMT. You deserve it brother. Thank you to everyone that was in that arena. That was so cool 💯🫀💪🏆💰
i did have my doubts about MMT being able to perform at high level, but he did well here, let's see if he how far he can climb in his last (?) arm wrestling "arc"
Yeah technically Ermes should have been east, but he pulled with Alizhan who is "more east" than him (Kazakistan-Italy), for example at evw 9 revaz (team west) pulled vitaly(team east) even if revaz is georgian. They shall take account of athletes further east. I guess.
I know Travis says some craziness when hes doing this. But; hes way more entertaining than anyone else ive ever heard doing EvW. I really like the things he says that are absolutely wrong. Looolll. Idk why but its great. And finally us boys in the U.S. get a win. Took....years?
Well that's your opinion. Considering we also saw a press, that makes your comment pretty stupid. It's not easy dropping into a kings move or open toproll after pressing. Either way, hating on someone's style is pretty pathetic. You don't have to like it but you also don't have to watch it and sure as hell don't need to be a douche about it in words.
@@rotten2209 especially hating on someones style after beeing injured badly so many times. MMT does what he has to do to stay competitive with techniques that are given to him by whats left of his arm. And he does it exceptional.
@@rotten2209I like MMT in general but I dislike his style. It's not an honorable way to win, IMHO. The entire strategy is based on a loophole in the rules. He mostly just lets his bodyweight and joints/tendons do all the work. It's not hard to see why most people root against him.
Michael has that 110% endurance in that Kingsmove and he has a 110% accuracy in the press-transition. Everything else is just like 70% of the other guys. 😂 Center position power and control is at 50% or sum like that... But!....he manages to win with his limited tools. I call that a clever guy. This is some engineering lvl sh!t.
agreed. by all rights he should of lost this. this was a master class in using whatever you have left to win. he shouldnt even probly be arm wrestling anymore that arm is so messed up. the U.S. gets a win too
Guys in the comments relax. Mike was following the rules very good. He wasnt even under the table. Probably if mike would have lost comments would be a bit different. But they cant deal with it that mike won.
Guardare gareggiare Michael Todd, è una vergogna assoluta. Non capisco come permettano a questo impostore, di partecipare a certe competizioni. Sempre sotto il tavolo, perché se affronta qualsiasi avversario a viso aperto, è sicuramente perdente. Anche l'arbitraggio, scandalo, sulla posizione delle spalle, totalmente a vantaggio di ''Under the table''. Lamparelli 100 volte più Armwrestler. Certe cose andrebbero vietate per regolamento.
@@Saga-kz2ti io dico molto su l'atteggiamento vergognoso di questo pseudo armwrestler, che non è altro che un opportunista al quale viene concesso questo comportamento. Gli arbitraggi, poi, a livello generale, hanno una qualità bassissima. Dovrebbe essere migliorata la qualità, altrimenti, scontrino epici ai quali assistiamo, si riducono al ridicolo.
@@Luca978SR Alcuni arbitri non sono solo scarsi,sono proprio in malafede. Purtroppo non tutti sono professionali come l'importanza dell'evento richiederebbe,ed è una cosa che Engin dovrà sistemare. Su Todd sfondi una porta aperta,ed estendo personalmente il parere a quasi tutti gli americani. Purtroppo sono un mucchio di gradassi che si credono Muhammad Alì,senza averne l'intelligenza e lo stile. Zero rispetto per l'avversario. Tolti Todzilla, Breznk e pochi altri,sono un mucchio di buffoni. Larratt compreso
RU-vid algorithm boosting comment 💪 ... i missed the highlights version of this! get all EvW and KOTT ppv at www.coresports.world/ this was my favorite WIN of the night!
As I suspected, some of the AW gifts Michael had has been taken away from him with his surgery, and he's now getting exposed. Hope he starts to train more traditionally. His strongest lane is his press now. Will be nice to see if this will be his go to move since his kings move technique is orthopedically not accessible. He's literally trying to contort his body to find the familiar bone lock, which is no longer there.
honestly, one should not be allowed to be in a position like MMT, bent over that low, in that weird angle, basically arm entirely stretched alsmost his face and body in totally other direction, he would have lost to frank if he everything was kept face to face
Micheal legs going limp and dropping under the table as soon as his attacks go futile makes it so cringe to watch, stand and fight like a real man as the sport was intended to be played!
I doubt armwrestling was intended to be the sport of steroid abusing giants, nor the sport where athletes slip their arms on purpose to get to the strap, but here we are
@@petruradu7242 but that's allowed just like Kingsmove, so if you ban Kingsmove, those things need to be banned too, armwrestling without straps and with steroid test
The KIng's Move in the sumo dead lift of the arm-wrestling world. Laying down in a bone lock while you wait for your opponent to gas out lacks honor, IMO.
Aaaaand yes Ladies and Gents!! It's happening now! The world's AW ignorant casuals are back giving a show in the name of "originality"!! Please read and enjoy a laugh while they embarrass themselves by beating a dead ol' trend from 6+ years ago.. I swear! Comments like "Michael 'under the table' Todd", "The Undertabler" (and many.. many more) are not missing from this section! You can of course even watch them complaining about a fully legal kings move because "they don't like it".... whatever that means... like anyone should care.... It's hilarious 🤣😂 Just keep in mind little geniuses.. when you try to offend Todd for his completely legal move, you may accidently offend every other arm wrestler or the organization, since they're all perfectly ok with that move.. Let alone your daddy.. Devon.. who's record would not look anywhere near the same without the illigal version of that move.. They ALL want that option to exist, and they are the ones that matter.. But anyways.. don't worry.. once a casual - not always a casual... there is still hope! Common upcoming replies: - "Ok Todd" - "Ok Rebecca" - "asldkflkdsf" - "askljfn kansdnjf kjasndj" Go ahead and bother my dudes...
