Just wanted to take a minute to thank Engin again, these promotions are highlighting a golden era in arm wrestling. Fans have unprecedented access to the sport and its participants, as a whole, and not just the few all stars who get most of the attention.
@@PaulLinn717 Yes, I can imagine. Btw, I loved your great ‘uncle’ and near namesake: Peter Marshall: “When a man falls off a ship, you are supposed to yell ‘Man overboard!’ What should you say if a woman falls off a ship?” Paul Lynde: “Full speed ahead!” ;)
justin bishop was the first armwrestler that caught my eye somehow i realized it was an actual sport and i looked and looked until i find someone that could beat him then started getting in the loop of everybody in 2018
When the commentator said the new guys don't have speed I gave it credit and instantly thought of that crazy match of Gary Goodridge vs John Breznk at Yukon Jack, where the speed and aggression was more decisive in that match than strength, and I did not even realise it was Gary commentating lol, just goes to show how different his style was from everyone else, and still different to most.
Time flow, amazing how Justin Bishop still somewhere 82kg class while Ryan now beyond 100kg at baseline weight. A bit waste they didn't pull again when the weight gap not this massive. There's conversation about Ryan skip Justin and all at some point.... but now they're far apart in weight.
They need to stop those elbow fouls if they are done intentionally to prevent the other opponent from scoring a win. If the elbow foul is done in a winning position or in the middle then yes but if the elbow foul is done in a losing position, it should be a loss and not a reset.
I feel like they need to do something about the strap. With all the talk of whoever has the buckle against there hand has the disadvantage then it obviously doesn’t make it a fair match.
It's something how equally matched this match was and it came down to endurance and stamina. You really have to be in great cardio shape to go the distance when you're at the elite level. I was hoping Bishop won but his opponent just had more... Endurance.
Some of these East vs. West matches look a bit suspect - especially the match between Tarasaitis and Bishop. Tarasaitis' just seemed to give the first game away to Bishop. Could it be rigged?
I think you still upload these PPV too soon. I paid, and still haven't watched all matches :) I don't mean it bothers me though. And holy shit your intro song is loud. Good job by the way on the EvW5. Actually all of them. Keep up the good work^^
