He's just got the most experience and Has the best endurance. He knows how to destroy his opponents mentally first, He knows his strength is endurance so he tires out his opponents both mentally and physically by stopping the push. The only reason he lost to levan was because the strength was way too much to hold on to, levan was 50kg heavier tbf

Nobody can deny his greatness and what he has achieved in this sport any longer. Beat waf champion sandris, fought genadi and had a war, beat prudnik who's a legend and put up a better fight than ermes and finally crushed ermes 3-0 when ppl said he had no chance because of how ermes held levan. All of them were top tier Europeans that ppl say he's ducking. And not to mention facing Denis in the next east vs west. At 48 years of age it's incredible. All the casuals giving ermes 99% chance of winning while professionals like levan, vitaly, brzenk, prudnik, revaz called the match 50-50.
@@eslteacherpeter That one was Devon's fault too. If in first round he pinned Genadii immediately instead of show boating, he wouldn't have his pin stolen. That first round was like a domino effect and even then Devon nearly won. Also, in one of the rounds he attempted can opener, which was a stupid waste of energy.
...and he came, he saw and he conquered... He made good on his promise to take out Denis. I'm happy for him that he was able to get that win. The left handed loss years ago was in his head the whole time and he finally overcame it.
Something that impresses me so much about pullers like Devon and Prudnik is their insanely smooth transitions. Table IQ to allow them to attack from all angles.
Oh give me a break table iQ the guy was pulling two seconds before the ref even says go, this was a total sham, Ermes would’ve torn his arm off if this ref wasn’t turning a blind eye to all of Devon’s BLATANT false starts. He’s saying don’t move don’t move while Devon’s back pressure is already half capacity.
@@mattisvicious6069not even close, if this was a serious match and not rigged against Ermes, Devon would’ve had his arm ripped out the socket. All of you Devon ballwashers ought to be embarrassed lmfao
@@ambatukoomdid you watch the same match I did?? Look at Ermes wrist in round 1 before he got fouled out, didn’t even budge. The only way Devon could gain an advantage was by being half way under the table before the ref even says go. Not even a warning for that scumbag Devon because he paid the ref. No other explanation. Devon didn’t beat Ermes the refs beat Ermes.
@@Tom-bb5gdYou shouldn't be insulting people's grammar. I know the people from the other comment destroyed You, but You don't have to lash out on a stranger 😂

@hooktraining3966 you're wrong. hook, toproll, and press are really the only moves you can do other than kingsmove. If he did anything else, your comment would be the same, im sure, lol Farewell
You can tell ermes coudnt even pull at 100%. Firstly bcuz of the short notice, but during the entire match, Devon had legit only 1pin. If this was a super match to 6 rounds, then we'd see a totally different match .
r u dumb? ermes was shot by round 3, a longer match would just see devon getting more dominant round by round. stop coping so hard and just accept that devon was the better athlete @@rakshanpurandhar7446
@@rakshanpurandhar7446 in 3 rounds devon had 3 pins. 6 rounds wouldn't have made a difference. No limits was just the better man today. Don't be sad. Ermes will come back better.
@enesbugra5326 Ermes should expect significantly taller opponents to be higher in the setup, all things being equal they'll be higher. The question is how do you deal with it. Engin's won plenty of matches where he started lower, with his short forearms he knew what to expect
Ermes was completely outclassed but he is still young. This will be a good learning experience for him. Congrats to Devon, without a doubt one of the all time greats
Yeah, Ermes never seemed comfortable or prepared for all this...seemed like every ready go was a surprise to him. Would love to see them run it back to see if Ermes has anything else to bring now that he knows what's up. Good stuff!
I was favoring Ermes 60 to 40. I miss called this one by quite a bit. I like both of these guys, so wasn't rooting for either one. Did feel bad for ermes though.
The thing is if it was just physical strength against physical strength it would be pretty 50/50 but as we know Devin has insane and I mean insane to get into the mind of his opponent
@@Ronaldo-vk1vnand devon’s left was coming back from surgery in 2018 if you wanna play it like that. And more time when he had 6 MONTHS to prepare for devon
The pressure, tension, stress and my heart pounding felt when I watched this match! After that I cried of happiness for Devon but also felt sorry for Ermes. The moment he closed hands with Devon he felt total disadvantage and powerlessness. What a night that was!
Incredible how you can see the venom in eyes of Devon, and something like fear in the eyes of Ermes. Still long way to improve for Ermes, and he will be unstoppable.
I watched the second round on PPV over and over again! The look on Ermes face when Devon stuck him on the "GO". Ermes lost his hand. Look at his face when this happens, then Devon pins him! What a great showing for Devon! Love armwrestling and East Vs West! Thank you Engin! Great job!
Not only is Devon one of the greatest of all time, he’s so damn smart. He knows how to get into people’s heads, so well. Also, man, his matches have unparalleled entertainment value.
At this point most of people who saw matchs between Levan -> Ermes/Larratt realize they actually don't know this sport 😂 It's not all about raw strength
I agree that every athlete or human has ability to improve themself better after losing a competition. So what's makes devon special is his character. He is humble, funny, former 2 division wal champion. Ever invited to armwrestled in japan He is the one that makes me interested in this sport (as audience) (my subjective opinion) Devon is a armwrestler engineer.
So cool to see the 🐐 put the belt on Devon. It's like a passing of the guard. John Brzenk and Devon Larratt will be side by side in the HOF for sure. Armwrestling royalty on that stage. Cannot wait for the next super match!
@@pojiloybivis9421 yeah well its a competition/fight not saying I agree with it but people can do whatever's in the rules and there's no rules for mind games also it can backfire for him like it did with levan it literally just made him more pissed and motivated to beat devon
Devon sucks. If this was a real match and not totally rigged, Ermes would’ve put Devon in the ICU. Devon would have been out of commission if this was a real match. The refs beat Ermes. Devon didn’t beat Ermes.
He doesn't suck, but he is a cheater for sure. I love armwrestling and i like all armwrestlers. But Devon always wins the set ups because the referees seems to be afraid to have him comply with the rules. Anyone that knows armwrestling can see that Ermes is stronger. He didn't have a chance to even use that power since Devon started in winning positions.@@WarrenAlog
I never used to watch arm wrestling I couldn’t grasp how it could be entertaining but I have watched so many matches over Devon that man is unbelievable entertaining he has everything and some how he’s getting better and better with age his form and mind games are crazy I really do think he’s going to give levan a good match
No, this is humiliation. He definitely uses improper words during the math. Mutual respect is important in sport. Here is the place that you should show the power of your muscle, not tongue.
@@fridmamedov270 wrong ... All successful armwrestlers including Ermes himself play the Psycho card when they have the opportunity and can. It's part of the game, today as well as 20 years ago. The fight is a competition - the respect for each other takes place off the table, after the fight.
@@fridmamedov270 What sports do you watch..? NBA, NFL, UFC, Baseball, Hockey? Every major sport has a lot of shit talking. Stuff gets said when things are extremely competitive.
Im a Devon fan and im glad he won but man i feel so sad for Ermes. Thought it would be a close 3-2 win for Ermes but this almost looked effortless for Devon.
@@truthverity4361styles make matches and Devons a bad match for Ermes. And I think when Devon faced Levan The outcome would have been totally different if Devon didn't tear his bicep..The rematch is going to be interesting. 50/50💯
Devon has changed a lot since his match against Levan. Most important, his training play has changed, as he and others have said. He has been focusing on areas that are paying a lot back
Well referees were on Devon’s side but that still doesn’t play a big role, my guess is ermes didn’t juice up for Devon like he did for levan because he probably thought Devon would be easy game he slacked while Devon knew he was going up against the second strongest arm wrestler so he probably worked his ass off to compete with him
@@qudratzazai jesus christ. just pay attention to what the experts said when analising the match. Listen to Engin and John. They explained what happened.
Ermes is much stronger than Devon. But Devon is full of dirty tricks that the judge sees and doesn't say anything about. He never wins clean. When he starts and there's no strap, he takes his hand off so he doesn't lose. And he only scores by throwing his body on top of the guys' arms. Half of what he does should have been banned. If they ban it, he won't get any more.
The gain, would be a win over one of the best to ever do it! To have a win over Devon Laratt is way more important than $10 or $50k. Beating one of the best is for life! Just sayin’
He's both Canadian and ex military. Tough man to be sure. Being 18 years older and 25 lbs lighter than Gasparini, I honestly didn't like his chances for victory. But somehow, he pulled it off. Congrats Devon! 🇨🇦
There was so much tension and yelling and trashing but as soon as a round ended everything was cool and I like that. It's nice to see drama can be left to the match and everyone gets along outside of that
His performance against Genadii was next level. Even though he lost, he was on the offensive most of the match, which is super unusual. That match showed that he is very dangerous.
@@kradfreezer23 Yes, refs screwed him. But more than anything Devon screwed himself. He showboated a lot and tried to win with style. He fought with ego and arrogance and didn't do his hardest to win, he gave way too many openings for Genadii. If he went straight for the pin in first round, that alone would have changed the outcome of the match.
@@awakedreamer5321 Возможно, но Денис легенда. Если Девону удастся взять реванш за то поражение, для него это будет значимым. Ждём с нетерпением в любом случае
I think it was because of mutual respect between them. Ermes was smiling and congratulating him already, how can you yell at someone like that haha... great to see good sportsmanship between them. Devon even told Ermes to "pay attention you just got pinned", and to "not lose like that" with the fouls.
What a thrill...what a high. I nearly passed out when he pressed Ermes. I always believed in Devon, how can you doubt a man who has given nearly his entire life to this sport
@@meat5486don’t worry there is no new king, Levan is still the best and will be for the foreseeable future Ermes just showed that even Levan can bleed is all
Great match. Devon continues to make history. What a great time to be in this sport with Brzenk commentating. The more I watch Ermes the more I like him and gain more respect.
One year ago i started following Devon in his epic adventure and psychological warfare. Man I love that dude! You are amazing and so entertaining! The hard work payed off. You earned it man!
I was thinking 49% Devon and 51% Ermes the whole time. Really hoping Devon would win 3-2, but he shocked all of us with a 3-0 victory 5:32 Referee grip stopped 6:16 Referee grip stopped 6:42 Devon Larratt: "Stop evin crying, Ermes!" 8:53 "YEA ERMES, YEAAA!!!" 10:23 Referee grip stopped 17:19 Devon: "Stop crying!!! This is a referee's grip!!!"
So sad hermes decreased his armwrestling level. Devon was humillated by levan and Hermes could stop the whole match agains Levan, i can not believe this match, no logic.
@@AdrianC.98it made no sense how devon out-muscled him easier than levan, either ermes was massively underprepared because of short notice or devon is on a stronger cycle lol
@SonGokuuu Probably because Devon being 15-20% stronger than he was when he faced Levan, including injecting stem cells into him to repair his damaged tendons and muscle cells more efficiently, he was strong enough to hold anybody back without tearing his bicep So, even though Ermes is likely close-to-equal to Levan by now, Devon's strength is strong enough to tolerate and hold Ermes' 92kg side-pressure back, and then he relied on his superior endurance to progress slowly to the pin and used the flop press against Ermes By round 3, we can see Ermes was already tired and when Devon held him back without the straps for about 20-30 seconds, Ermes likely tired out from trying to top roll him 3 times
At first i thought ermes was going to demolish devon but after this match and him beating denis completely changed my mind devon will has a chance of beating levan and ending his reign
Levan aguantaba a Erme. Devon por otra parte, es más mañoso, prácticamente solo ganó una y eso muy apenas, pues recargo todo su cuerpo. Si levan consigue repeler sus mañas de devon, Devon será aplastado por levan

Surprised by how early this footage was released but probably the right call for building online community.
Yeah, he's getting stronger at close to 50, which isn't that crazy normally. What is insane is that he's gotten A LOT stronger lately, and he's a guy who was already strong, so getting even stronger at 50 after his current strength was already at that high of a level is impressive. He definitely upped his cycle a lot to help him do that though as well, but that's what he needed to do to try to compete with the top guys and become the best in the world.
This was probably one of my favorite Devon matches. He was respectful before, during, and after the match. And his arm wrestling was on point match 2 was 🔥
I thought he poured in too hard on Ermes while Ermes was physically akward and not understanding english, by the 3rd round he was breaking every shoulder set position to something he felt he needed to compete...totally lopsided but Devon must be taller than Levan...and a different pull power.
It's a real shame that this sport doesn't have more exposure than it does because this match would be talked about everywhere, and some of the star pullers would be household names.
I am sorry but don't know what you were watching. Arm wrestling has declined in match quality. 23 minutes of nothing for 2 minutes of actual pulling. Devon, Genadi, Todd are absolutely unwatchable. I am sure Devons fans are liking this but as someone who enjoys many sports and doesn't have a preference for who wins here, I can't watch live and would never pay for it. Constant fighting with the referees, always going to the strap, shoulder in the middle of the table from the start, starting too fast, king's move.
Bro am watching from mauritius island. Bet you don't know in which corner of the world its found . Though i digress, Devon and Hermes are quite renowned around here. Supermen
@@somber8233You do know there isn't just one peak right? You, somber, can be stronger than 1 year ago, and that 1 year ago was stronger than you 2 years ago and so on. Every step you take forward from your strongest version is a new peak. Everyone has new peaks and lows constantly. Not just once.
I believe Devon played around with Genadi a tad too much and it cost him the match. This time there was no playing around. When Devon went into that press, he was going all ham, leaving it all out there. He wasn't going to take a chance and miss the opportunity to make history.

That first round was like a domino effect and even then Devon nearly won. Also, in one of the rounds he attempted can opener, which was a stupid waste of energy.
...and he came, he saw and he conquered... He made good on his promise to take out Denis.
I'm happy for him that he was able to get that win. The left handed loss years ago was in his head the whole time and he finally overcame it.
He beat a washed up shell of himself Cyplenkov. He knows damn well he didn't beat a good version of Denis.

Something that impresses me so much about pullers like Devon and Prudnik is their insanely smooth transitions. Table IQ to allow them to attack from all angles.
Oh give me a break table iQ the guy was pulling two seconds before the ref even says go, this was a total sham, Ermes would’ve torn his arm off if this ref wasn’t turning a blind eye to all of Devon’s BLATANT false starts.

Well referees were on Devon’s side but that still doesn’t play a big role, my guess is ermes didn’t juice up for Devon like he did for levan because he probably thought Devon would be easy game he slacked while Devon knew he was going up against the second strongest arm wrestler so he probably worked his ass off to compete with him

Ermes is much stronger than Devon. But Devon is full of dirty tricks that the judge sees and doesn't say anything about. He never wins clean. When he starts and there's no strap, he takes his hand off so he doesn't lose. And he only scores by throwing his body on top of the guys' arms. Half of what he does should have been banned. If they ban it, he won't get any more.
So much props and respect to Ermes. He had nothing to gain from taking this match - and he took it anyway. He's a _true_ champion.
The gain, would be a win over one of the best to ever do it! To have a win over Devon Laratt is way more important than $10 or $50k. Beating one of the best is for life! Just sayin’
Devon really is one of a kind. You can't teach that especially at his age!!

I was more like 70% Ermes and 30% Devon. But wow Devon won 3-0
@SonGokuuu Probably because Devon being 15-20% stronger than he was when he faced Levan, including injecting stem cells into him to repair his damaged tendons and muscle cells more efficiently, he was strong enough to hold anybody back without tearing his bicep
So, even though Ermes is likely close-to-equal to Levan by now, Devon's strength is strong enough to tolerate and hold Ermes' 92kg side-pressure back, and then he relied on his superior endurance to progress slowly to the pin and used the flop press against Ermes
By round 3, we can see Ermes was already tired and when Devon held him back without the straps for about 20-30 seconds, Ermes likely tired out from trying to top roll him 3 times
At first i thought ermes was going to demolish devon but after this match and him beating denis completely changed my mind devon will has a chance of beating levan and ending his reign

It's a real shame that this sport doesn't have more exposure than it does because this match would be talked about everywhere, and some of the star pullers would be household names.
I am sorry but don't know what you were watching. Arm wrestling has declined in match quality. 23 minutes of nothing for 2 minutes of actual pulling. Devon, Genadi, Todd are absolutely unwatchable. I am sure Devons fans are liking this but as someone who enjoys many sports and doesn't have a preference for who wins here, I can't watch live and would never pay for it. Constant fighting with the referees, always going to the strap, shoulder in the middle of the table from the start, starting too fast, king's move.
