Damn i didnt know that either.

Yeah I saw this.... Looks like he has had a rough run.

Hopefully he's on the mend now, though may take a while.

What is his go regarding the acromegaly...? Does he admit to the condition? Could be related to his health issues, which are pretty vaguely explained.

Not that I really followed him but I didn't know he had health issues. What has he explained about them?

Yeah he definitely always looked like he had acromegaly. Lots of problems arise from that, diabetes, weakness, joint pain, cardiac issues. He looks like he is in pain and can't extend his arms. Maybe his heart was in bad shape and had to stop the steroids to avoid going into heart failure so now he is in more pain and really weak? Just speculation on my part obviously.

Dennis is done. Can't see him making any waves in armwrestling anytime soon. Especially with Levan being the top guy.

MAXX · « **Reply #6 on:** February 15, 2020, 01:54:20 PM »

He never really stood a chance against a motivated/trained/gassed Brzenk on the right regardless. Neither would Levan.

Undefeated left arm though. Maybe best lefty ever.

I believe he as poor kidney function.

He absolutely destroyed DEVON LARRATT

I don't even think John could hold Levan. Too massive and too much horsepower for anyone.

It looks like they Throw their whole body down.
No doubt Dennis was very powerful & Brzenk.

MP · « **Reply #13 on:** February 17, 2020, 02:46:22 PM »

Only been following Devon in recent months. Dude is incredible.

Cyplenkov is unreal, as well.

But I think Devon has really worked harder to get where he is (not all genetics / chemicals).

That's not real arm wrestling. They're using their body to pull their opponent down. It's like straps and suits in power lifting. What is the point except to claim a hollow victory.

And yes, I cannot arm wrestle anyone.

But I know arm wrestling when I see it and I am NOT closing my eyes to this facade.

There are multiple techniques involved in pro arm wrestling. What would be the point of only allowing the competitors to use just 1 😆

Brzenk is the GOAT.

Prime Cyplenkov was a beast, Larratt said he's never felt a stronger human and that says a lot but I doubt Dennis can come back and compete at a high level.

Well, for one thing it's called "arm" wrestling.

X2.
It’s whole Body Throwing / Pulling Down arm leveraging
And Some are Extremely Good At it.

Not what I would say is “pure” arm wrestling - Only Thing is I know very little about arm wrestling rules & regulations.

Sounds like some of you guys need to watch modern arm wrestling to get up to speed.

In short, as long as your elbow stays on the table, you can use a variety of techniques with your arms, legs, body, etc.

MP · « **Reply #20 on:** February 17, 2020, 04:38:00 PM »

Also, the vid posted is from May. Not sure the latest on Denis.

I assume you've heard of the "King's move"? Personally, I hate it:

Looks like a position you would have gotten into arm wrestling your buddy when you were 12 and then both claim the other was cheating. Looks ridiculous to me.
