It’s an era where absolutely nobody knew about the sport. I’m sorry but that’s not comparable. Today’s arm wrestling level is on a whole other level. John prime would get destroyed by todays top 10
John is a league on his own…. Out of comparison with any arm wrestler … it’s like comparing pure gold to any other metal … a decades champion who is almost very natural … in a sport full of juice full of heavy lifting … they destroyed their bodies with all possible means and couldn’t achieve 10% of his legacy
John is easily the GOAT, devon is my favorite all time though. He learned alot from and still respects john so much. Really fun to watch devons game from being super aggressive first to his defend and endure method
@ahsisjdvdve2022 there are benefits to doing AAS's but imo the benefits don't outweigh the risks. This is implying you take them without doing anything. Might as well workout to get the most out of them.
Sure, may not be the top anymore. Age, chronic shoulder issue, & endurance being the main factors. However, there's no denying even at his age, John is still a beast. The majority of matches that he lost since he's comeback was not easy wins at all for his opponent. He can still give these younger guys war in the early rounds. Point and case, John will always be the goat. Legacy and longevity is what defines his status.
The pattern is almost the same, John is the senior and schools them, and after he get older and got more injuries, and his rivals reach their peak, it's the reversal
John is a GOAT, many Armwrestler said that themself. Devon just went very very strong over the years. Devon would be the GOAT when it comes to stamina. How many champions he have beaten with stamina, it is impressive. Also, he can be a champion with his left! Impressive!
Arm wrestling and having a good rivalry with someone for 4 decades, probably about as much fun as you can have. Im a tiny bit envious because I hardly even know anyone for decades other than my own family :P
Two of the best. John will forever have his named etched in the echelons of one of the most dominating sportsman of all time. Devon is holding the flame high. Absolute highest of praises to both these individuals.
They’re all juiced and they both had injuries at various times. John claims he was injured in the 2008 match and if he could do it over he would not have taken the match. In 2015 Devon was still coming back / recovering from surgery. That said it’s always great to see them compete and I wish there had been more official matches of them.
The last few seconds of that had me emotional. They kinda "pause" in the middle. Devan knows he has him.....John gives it one more try.....no chance. Both are legends!
@@KBP120 The point is that you can still be competitive at the top of the sport in your 40s and even 50s, where as in non strength based sports it's impossible
@@amusingautomatons2692Yup..but Devon himself said that we got to see that fight cuz John let it happen.. could have too rolled him easily but went into a hook as John liked to challenge himself..and he took Devon close to the pad even in the beginning of the second match..but then Devon dug in and John had a difficult time
As great as John has been throughout his stellar career of arm wrestling, he's never had the endurance during a pull like Devon has had. Devon Larratt is a GOAT in his own right.💪
John NEVER showed strain on his face until 2021, where as Devin ALWAYS showed strain until 2021. That is when the tied fully turned. You could tell that Devon was so much better than he used to be and John was no longer the man he used to be.
John dominated the sport for a long ass time. Hes the GOAT and King of the arm wrestling world. Eventually age will catch up to you making you lose strength and endurance, yet John still competes because his passion for the sport is insane.
Wikipedia says that " From 1982 to 2015, John only lost a single supermatch". Who did he lose to? And when and where was it? It's an absolutely insane stat. Next level dominance.
@@matthewhunter6421 Read up on John career he has many rivalries obvious Devon is up there but one of many Jonnie Walker, Cleve Dean, Richard Lupkes, Taras Ivakin, Dennis Cyplekov, Alexy Voyevoda, Ron Bath etc etc

And Devon it is not a legend?😂bro what do you talkin' about?"ever"??do you think he would beat Levan??nobody can defeat this guy!!Devon is not in his shadow!He is on his own way!!
2006 Devon was just becoming a top guy, barely beat Ron that year for #3 spot in NA, still not ready for John. 2008 John said he had a lingering issue and Devon was in healthy, peak form. 2015 Devon was a year n half removed from right elbow surgery, was lucky to win the one round.

I know I’ll make the VA for the finals

How do you know he is natural, I mean, to compete, especially at that age, he have to use that😢

two armwrestling legends. So beautifull to watch these relentless fights. 😲
beautiful video. Thank you
Джон, легенда! И с этим не поспоришь. В его года до сих пор дает жару. Респект ему.
Arm wars devin was insane. Miss those days.

@@benbushell1448 Devon is a lazy clown 🤡. Not in the same league as John.
Epic battles, both legends
The unforgettable 2 legends
2008 the year when Devon found out about Syringe
John has said that he was injured and tried to pull out of that match but ultimately ended up doing it injured so the show could continue
2015 Devon smaller than 2008 Devon
Idk what your getting at because John is obviously on gear as well
@@tr889 Oh ofc it was the injury. Without the injury he would have beat Devon, right??? pathetic.
Yes, he is the gold standard of injections and 💊
The most incredible thing about the human spirit is that every competition you could see the growth as they traded wins.

Crazy how much the sport has changed the last 15-20 years. Didn't see a starp until 2008!! Now ITS RARE to see a super match without a strap.
how many pounds of pressure will there be between those guys hands ? 🤔
love both these guys
It's amazing to see the work and strength, but 3:55 the changing of the guard.
That look from John Brzenk at 1:18…who is this guy?!
4:15 did John concede there?
Two awesome legends of Armwrestling !!!
Absolutely legendary rivalry.
Two of the best. John will forever have his named etched in the echelons of one of the most dominating sportsman of all time. Devon is holding the flame high. Absolute highest of praises to both these individuals.
What a massively elite video.
In the early years John never gloated over winning. A real sportsman and legend.
John always showed up. 08 was his first big loss and he won his firs title in the 80's..... like WHATT??
He was injured in 08's match

So was john lol.
@@Aex89not sure

His first win against Devon John was in 2008. At that time Denis was just born

Thats insane .. watched the student become the master and the greatest pass on the torch and a lot of teachings with it

So John Brzenk is leading in their H2H matchup.

Awesome. It took awhile for Devon to build up the Wrist strength to beat him.
Prime John beats prime Devon, no problem. Also classier at the table😊
Prime Devon is now, Levan VS Devon is the highest level ever in the arm wrestling history.
Whattt..😅
Cap but ight
The sports was not that competitive back then.. John is the goat but he definitely won't be the top now no matter he is prime or not
Prime Devon is superior to Prime John in basically every area. Old head syndrome causes people to not see that.

I love how in 2008 it looks like Devon is just stronger than him but then 7yrs later he struggles the same way he did in their first match 😂
No one compares.
How the hell john loses to devon so easily in 2008 but in 2006 and 2015 john beat him and devon struggled so much
Could be injuries. Takes longer to recover as we age.
