Today on Coresports.com:

Lavan is 415 lbs. Now thats a BEAST. Wood-Hanks calls himself a beast at 225. Nah, decent sized guy, but very far from a beast.
275 you start to enter beast-category. 415 is insane... Matt fears for this guys health..

Cyplenkov set a record in the strict curl 113 kilo or some shit.He used a wide grip and said anyone who strict curls with that narrow grip he’s not counting it.

Didn't Denis have a Stroke or some health issues a while ago?

Did he fully recover?

You know I just started following this recently but they are always talking about Dennis trying to get back to his former size.

Didn't Denis have a stroke?

And didn't a Getigger call him a chemical experiment?

Not sure if he stroked out. I do think he had some major kidney issues though...
He''s close to 280 lbs now I think that video said..

Brzenk is interesting. He’s not “small” by general population standards, I think he’s 6’ 200 lbs or so, but definitely not one of the bigger guys by pro arm wrestling standards.

I’ve read things saying he has crazy grip strength.

Brzenk is almost 60 years old soon. Hard to find any other sport where someone is at the top level at that age.

There's argument for him being underdog here simply because of his age. 10-15 year younger Brzenk I would never bet against.

John could win only because Dennis had a major stroke and not has had a official match in almost 5 years now

Did Dennis have some sort of heart issue? I heard he may have had a stroke, could that effect his arm wrestling ability?

Right, he's Jordan on the Wizards at this point. There will be a flash here and there but against a Levan there's just no chance. It took guys that were 6'5" 300+ and guys that were genetic mutants to make him retire the first time.

Possibly the best ever career in any singles sport. Let's see if some of these new guys are around at 60.

If Denis goes back to his old self, he’s going to destroy brzenk.

The "powerlifting" curls that he's conveniently dropped from talking about lately?

I think John Cooper has worked out hes a fucking asshole and dropped him.

Two legends.
John Brzenk is still the GOAT of armwrestling (and a contender for GOAT of any sport). Good to see Cyplenkov coming back strong. Let's see when he goes against Devon.
