Keep posting these matches please WAL! I love seeing these old matches.... ive watched every other video on youtube of armwrestling and im loving seeing all the past matches that everyone talks about!
With stricter rules there would been called elbow foul quite a lot here. But personally that's what I like with WAL, they let their armwrestlers go to war without calling every micro foul. While I liked the shoulder position of Josef in the king's move, there was a bit too much straight arm for my taste. But regardless awesome match. 😃
@@leemelvin6514 That's why americans fail vs europe/russia armwrestlers, its like they don't even have any strength, they just go for shitty techniques like kings move, if you go for the real armwrestling techniques they will just get smashed to fucking bits, don't know, maybe it's the fast foods :D
@@armwrestlingfan6804 It wasn't michael todd kings move, it was shoulder above table and elbow in the pad and not outside in the edges of the fluffy pad
If the ref DID call every micro-foul... then these matches would be pretty fucking boring to watch, relative to being able to see the damn round uninterrupted like this video. Significant fouls sure, call them. But fuck those micro-fouls that don't change anything in the fight and the competitors rarely know that they even happened.
Amolins has stated "i knew i lost the hammer after that fight" because he spent all his energy. He was right to be frustrated the the straight arm position it could have been called earlier.
@@0jabsroomer - I don't think sooo (I'm too lazy to check). That would be a bit of a strange rule when we think about how a lot of armwrestlers pretty much "lock out" way before their arm is straight. Yet we don't stop those matches. With other leagues (not WAL), it's just harder to end up with an arm that straight, because there's less room at the back of the pad, and their pads aren't as tall and pillowy. BUT, Michael Todd can still King's Move very well under any league and table. So yea. Especially now that he doesn't even need to go fully into that position anymore. He was only in a real King's Move position like 5% of the time in his last WAL match (with Jerry).
King's move is a real cancer for this sport. I really understand why todd got so many haters. Now there are more and more emulators. Pretty sad. Except from horrible "under the table" moments: nice match
Josef is RAW STRENGTH,, Jeff Hail is RAW STRENGTH Barbosa is RAW STRENGTH ,,, U guys can win the wal Update technics,,, I bet no body can win this 3 BEAST!!!!!💪💪💪
That king move arm stretched out elbow manipulated is a way out . its drains the better arm wrestler an puts him in jeopardy ... So I feel its cheating to win... The king move truly ruined the sport... Now the best aren,t winning at times now into 2020 onward.

One of the best match i ever saw. Top 3. What intensity Wow
There's a burning pain in my inner elbow from watching this match...
lol i feel you
as opposed to outer elbow? wut
@@lepe kings move makes my outer elbow go ouch
@@mikeg1032 I think there's only one elbow on the human body bro D:
@@lepe you have two main elbow tendons that hurt when armwrestling cx
These two are so evenly matched.
Absolute monsters.
#Awesome

straight as fuck arm and not even a pin? lol wow
@@RideWithJosh696 arm can be straight but at a vertical angle. need to take the straight arm and press it to the pad.

@@BambaGanza I have seen Denis pull a kings move against Chaffee.
You were saying?
@@armwrestlingfan6804 It wasn't michael todd kings move, it was shoulder above table and elbow in the pad and not outside in the edges of the fluffy pad
Ty for whoever posted this to reddit great watch
yes, bring back the 2016 matches. They were great
My favorite match up of all time in all weight classes. The jedi is too much. Too strong, too smart. Knowledge is literally, power!
My goodness, the whole time I was like "when is lovei gonna stop surging!?!"
I remember that match. Amazing fight by both competitors 💪🏼💪🏼
First time seeing Janis redlining, awesome I must say. And first time seeing Josef Lovei, guy is an animal!
Wow huge fight 💪
Janis is awesome to watch pull love it! Ready for new matches🔨
That was really entertaining to watch.
Release the full event💪🏼👍🏻
Beau combat
Apart from the breakout of the kings move by the Lovei, this is a beautiful display of the sport.
Filipovicu, kings move was beautiful too
desperation
Mullet guy is about to bleed through his eyes lol
Thought it was bald Devon through the thumbnail. That's a semi-clickbait
Looked like Devon vs Ron Bath.
lol i saw that to
The WAL and its constant problems with kings move... the loose ref style and the wider elbow pad allows too much BS imo
not if you (or they) don't see the kings move as a problem.
nothing wrong with the kings move. it is a more technical move than people realize. as long as elbow stays on the pad it should all be fair game
I don’t have a problem with the kings move
It's a retarded move and an embarrassment to the sport
That was a good match!
Holy crap. INCREDIBLE MATCH!!
DAMNIT.! Havnt seen a better match as of yet.!! That shit pumped me up..!
One of the best fights
Hope Josef Lovei is still healthy, active and ripping people. Lots of entertaining battles over the years, especially in Arm Wars series.
Wow, what a match
One of my most favorite match

Like to see Lovie back WAL
@KillswitchOwnsAll Elle l'est
@@valentinmtz2857 il avait pris deux ans d'interdiction il me semble ? C'est bien ça ?
Great match!
One of the best matches ever
Do You have any more videos of prelims from previous years?
Amolins has stated "i knew i lost the hammer after that fight" because he spent all his energy. He was right to be frustrated the the straight arm position it could have been called earlier.
Having a straight arm is not against any rule.
@@Siberius- isnt in WAF that a straight arm equals a pin? I dont know for sure, just asking

BEAUTIFUL FIGHT.
01:11 You can see his red eyes due to the A class drugs done prior to this match; more likely.
What did Janis eventually did that year? Did he won the hammer again?
What a Nice Match
Crazy match
Frenchman did not stay with in the rules, dropped below the table with arm full extended.
two greatest warriors
That was wild!
Janis is a beast
The pivotal moment - I understood that
Hell of a match
Respect to Janis! That was incredible, 1 round WAR
A great battle
What a match!
If you pull up a dictionary and look for "dogfight" you will see this match under it. Just an absolute war.
Devon larrett vs ron bath??????
Yep, but smaller versions
Jozsef Lovei one of my favorite armwrestlers. I still remember when he destroyed Geoff Hale 6:0 in Arm Wars ruclips.net/video/v24sejclE6k/видео.html
I dont know why but i think he is you
I mean like... you are commenting in this video really early and when i mentioned it before you got mad
I havent seen you comment in so long and suddenly i am seeing it now
TIMMY TURNER =joseph lovei?
Btw i love joseph lovei too
yannis is a beast but was cheering for tough love on this one
King's move is a real cancer for this sport. I really understand why todd got so many haters. Now there are more and more emulators. Pretty sad. Except from horrible "under the table" moments: nice match
Intense 💪
Got to love Lovei's fight.
What a war
Lovei's intensity is outta this World 😆
lol that move where josef is disappearing under the table is so cowardly.
This guy is very strong👏👏☠☠
Janis is legend 💪💪💪
What a war. At some points you can see the muscles being twisted to their max, I thought an injury was incoming.
Lovei is crazy strong..
But then so is Janis!!
Josef is RAW
STRENGTH,,
Jeff Hail is RAW
STRENGTH
Barbosa is RAW
STRENGTH ,,,
U guys can win the wal
Update technics,,,
I bet no body can win this 3 BEAST!!!!!💪💪💪
Janis is a BEAST.
WTF what a fight!
what in the ron bath lookalike is this
Beast
Be good to see the hole thing
From the thumbnail I thought this was larrat vs Ron bath XD
Huge respect to Amolins
Great armwrestling for Janis. Refs needed to call more fouls on Lovei though
Holy shit, what a war!
I think they devon larratt and Ron bath
brings out the kings move
Holly shit that was intense
Janis almost lost his hand there, pretty cool fight.
Thought that was ron bath at first.
I lifted 130 kg for biceps 💪 for 3 reps. Can you?
Cyplenkov's strict curl world record ist at 113 kg ..
Michael tod yes lovei and other not?
Fuckin badass match
Wow
Lol how many times has todd been in that position and allowed to continue....too many to count.
What a great fight before josef used kingsmove
Wow. These refs are actually competent.
Unlike the other one.. who started reffing in 1994
That French man is just insane
U will be seeing me soon 😎
That king move arm stretched out elbow manipulated is a way out . its drains the better arm wrestler an puts him in jeopardy ... So I feel its cheating to win... The king move truly ruined the sport... Now the best aren,t winning at times now into 2020 onward.
Kings move is bs
Janis / Giannis 🤔
Arm fully extended = loss
Вот это война!
RIP CHARLES FISK
Latvian Iron Man!
Get out from under the table with arm fully extended. That’s a blatant over used cheat. Glad he lost.
Smaller version of Ron Bath and Devon Larratt wrestling.
Come on devon.. haha
Looks like Patricia.
