Having Genadi on Levans corner made a hughe difference, Genadi opened pandoras box when he figure out Devons weakness with that press, giving Levan all kinds of advices and tailored the perfect strategy for Levan INCASE Levan had issues with his wrist. That flop press contigent back up plan worked perfectly.
Genadi match with Devon harmed Devon way more than people think.
No, it didn't, levan's cycle made the difference.
Yeah. Genadi crushed Devon and then levan destroyed him forever.
Levan = "FINAL BOSS"
Saying that Genadi crushed Devon is an enormous overstatement…
But that match did matter. Genadi figured out that Devon could be beat.
And he figured out how to do it.
That's why Devon wanted another shot at Genadi. He was mad that he lost. He thinks he should have won.
@@albertlevins9191he didn't think he is sure. I'm first round referees took a bad decision. And still lost 3-2. Devon for the match with levan was 1 million times stronger than before. Genadi would have lost royally if it wasn't levan and genadi was in his place
Levan comment after the match about Devon’s pronation strength was classic “it’s strong as fk”😂😂😂
Is that really what he said? 😭 what interview/video
He said ermes’ pronation was weak but the brachioradialis was strong as f*.
@@godlyaardvark7265 man I’ve watched so many videos of them on all channels it would be hard to find. It’s not Devon’s channel but levan evw voa one of there’s I think.
@@godlyaardvark7265 If someone else seen it they can chime in and let this fella know
It's in the video where engin interviewed levan after the match. You'll find it on this channel or evsw channel. They're sitting on a couch discussing the match
You should keep doing these analysis, youre far more knowledgeable than those other channels that talk bout the sport
Great analysis. I wish someone made similar regular breakdowns of important moments/matches like this one. Nobody could do it better than Engin though!
Thank you for this Engin,
Always wanted to hear an in-depth breakdown of that first round from a Pro.
Favorite round of all time
Dude you a truly right. That was Devon testing his frame as he said. Levan I think may have been in trouble. But only that round I think Devon was done after that.
@@Leland387 For a few minutes the whole world got to think Levan would lose, in the moment I felt more confident in Devon than I ever felt during the Ermes match
@@HenryNehring hey are you the crazy guy in the background?😄
@@te-tg4ip yep
@AndriaJakhveladze caught me
Perfect execution of technique by both guys round 1. Devon did exactly what he needed to do for his game plan, and Levan did the same. Levan saved his back pressure and outside chain by choosing to flop press, rather than trying to finish outside from this position. It set him up for an easier victory in the later rounds. Props to Devon for doing as well as he did round 1. Also props to that dude in the back trying to keep it together lol
4:32 Jodi 😂
😂😂😂
She looks like a demon here 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Get you a woman that looks at you the way Jodi looks at devan, real talk. She’s like this everytime he competes 😂
Bro I was scared for a moment it looked like some scary witch from movies. ( No offense)
1st round was a Beautiful Chess Match
Haven’t seen levans fingers and wrist look like that in a long time. But the fact that his arm is so fucking strong that he was able to hold and think is incredible. Then he switched to a Todd roll not caring so much about wrist in the next rounds. He focused on rise and pronation through the thumb.
Yeah, the plan was to make him panic, but I have never seen anyone so calm in the table that first round. The way he casually moves his head like trying on a glove
@@No_Limits_411 other armwrestlers panic when they lose wrist because the know they are gonna lose. Levan Is so frickin strong that even without his wrist completely intact he could keep the position with just arm power and side pressure, so he had the time to think. Also, he is a super athlete, mentally and technically, better than a lot of SHW
Thanks for this Engin. It was an epic first round.
Devon did an amazing job considering the gap in strength. Levan is a true Titan. A guy that ridiculously strong that also has a lifetime of experience is a true specimen. It’s going to take a hell of an AW that performs perfectly on the day to ever take him down
There is nothing to analyse, strength gap was just too damn huge, no matter what Devon would do, he would not change the outcome..
100% facts.
💯
The analysis was pretty good. Do you want people to just say unga bunga?
The strength gap is close actually, it's just that levan's technicality had overcome devon's game.
@@Melajied You have no idea what you are talking about.
Levan worked on his flop press. It worked out for him.
This match would have been a lot longer for him without that press.
Yaa if he didn't use flop press he would loss that round
@@suvamthapa2452 😂
@@suvamthapa2452right 😂
@@noneyabidness196 What options do you think he has without a press? The situation got worse for him every second from the start, without press it would continue to get worse.
I mean, it is obvious that Levan let Devon have too much in the first round.
As Devon hangs off of his bicep, he looks down at his hand, confused.
"He shouldn't have been able to stop me."
Then he pulls back real hard and changes to a press. Because that was the only move forward.
I don't think any other technique would have won the round.
Levan could have just given Devon the round, but he wasn't gonna do that.
So, flop press it is.
Devon had everything, still meant nothing on that day. Levan just has his number
No he didn't have everything, he had his pronation but couldn't go sideways. If he had everything he'd have pinned levan lol
@@TurkeysGoGobbleIn fact. He should have climbed on the table and tried pin Levan.
@@TurkeysGoGobble I meant Devon had the hand height, setup, strap good start. Still didn’t matter
@isaacarzaga he forced the "all mighty" Levan to have to flop press so he didnt get his wrist snapped back and show weakness. That in itself is a feat especially when Levan had said in one of the interviews before that he won't need the flop or anything else to beat devon. He also needed to cross the table to do so and devon fd up and continued fighting and still never got the pin I don't believe
@@fishingpatriot2344 After all that, it still doesn’t matter. Nobody will have flawless victories. The feat would have been to beat Levan
I totally agree with everything you said but we have to remember Levan was worried about hurting his wrist again coming back from an injury.
When you have a big injury, even when you come back after it's healed it's very difficult to have total control, confidence and strength in that area again as instinctively the body and the subconscious mind holds back in that area to avoid reinjury. Even if consciously you aren't concerned anymore about the injury.
So in conclusion Devon did an incredible job to attack Levan's wrist and hold him for a while but once Levan got the confidence and blood flowing in his wrist he crushed him.
Exactly, everyone said it, even Devon, that Levan was not in his best form, the aggression and speed were also not the same..
100% and once Levan gathered his confidence he crushed Devon even tho Devon always had too much advantage before go, even Travis was commenting about that during the match. I understand that most people cant see that but I hate the fact that pro like Engin did not mension anything about that because it show how supperior Levan realy is.
P.S. actually Devon said it after match that he had everything he wanted to have before go but still there was no way to beat Levan and he aslo said during Sarichev interview that Levan could beat prime Denis,Pushkar,Cleve Dean and Brzenk on the same day
Wrong. Engin has the 100% correct analysis. In rounds 2-4, Devon had much weaker back pressure and less pronation. And Devon completely lost his riser in rounds 2-4 because Levan started to post hard with his back pressure before going sideways. Confidence had nothing to do with this, it was strength.
Round 1 felt like the whole world stopped spinning for 5 seconds lol
Full body chills !
We need a fusion dance between Devon and Ermes to beat Levan.
Devon had significant height advantage
Travis's commentary about that was pure gold
Looked to me like Levan should have been called for the foul with going past center table with his shoulder before Devon was called for the foul. If the foul was called on Levan as soon as it occured it would have prevented all that extra stress on Devons arm when it was straightened out. To me Levan clearly fouled which caused Devon to foul.
2:19 😂😂 nice angle
Megamind
😂😂
Jodis face at the 4:40 pause...🤣😅
It looks like shes just about to scream "EELBOOOUUU!!" 😂
I was following Devon's progression for this match and as time went on it looked like he was losing muscle mass. I was hoping he'd be pumping iron a bit more to be able to handle Levan's weight difference. Anyways, valiant attempt from the Canadian Champ.
He gain a lot of muscle on his left arm.
I don't think the match would have gone differently if Devon would have gone inside. Due to the power difference Devon's cupping and arm likely would have failed to hold Levan.
I think he could have better blocked the press. And extended the match a bit longer with inside pressure.
@@Bennythecoredriver No one in entire world saw the press coming though. Everyone thought Levan didn't have a flop press and even if he did it was not very good. But then his press turned out to be elite level too as well as his transition
Do you think far higher webbing in the set up of Devon’s make Levan cannot top roll Devon?
No matter how strong a wolf is, it can never fight a bear. No matter how strong Avaza is, he cannot interfere with the tiger.
Nothing impressed me better than Jodi's support, guys get yourself a Jodi today if you're not already married.
Exactly, these kinds of women are way too rare these days...
Didn’t notice Toddzilla was the referee during the live broadcast 🐢
Wow, what an outstanding explanation and analysis of the match. Everything is very clear for me now. Engin is the best.
The set up was horrible sorry to say engin
Levan technically out armwrestled Devon.
Well, He technically did, but when you’re that redonkulously strong it shuts down a lot of options. I don’t think any mid match change in tactics or adjustment would have made much of a difference.
It’s terrible for anyone facing Levan, because he knows what to do if a piece fails, and the guy is so ridiculously strong everywhere that if you take one piece away, you’re still f’d because now you’re fighting the next piece which is also a 10/10 in strength.
Levan reminds me of the impossible bosses from my fav console games from the 90’s lol.
What a round, was amazing be there in the stage, what a moment!
Thanks for the analysis Boss
Levan was never in any trouble, but because of the bad setup plus the uncertain of his wrist after the injury, he lost a bit of his hand in round 1, still nowhere near to lose the round or anything.
Without that flop wrist press that match could’ve gone a bit different, I think that flop wrist took a lot more out of Devon then levan and from there levan got comfortable and did what he usually does but still it was nice to see Devon do that the first round
Levan was relaxing and holding before he decided to end it
Masterclass analysis from the Enigma. Thx Engin.
Thank you Engin for highlighting this. I noticed the same thing myself.
If Devon would've stood up to match Levans press with a hook, what would've happened?
He tried to hook Levan in round 4 without straps. Levan can easily crack his wrist.
LOL. Watch 9:27 onwards. I looked wtf how huge is Levan's bicep. Do you know why it looks like that? Perfect angle 😂😂😂 So fucking great
Was round 1 an elbow foul or humerus in negative position foul?
Both
All of them
Wonderful analysis. 💪🏽💪🏽
Engin, was Devon injured or unwell in some way? He seemed to be a lot stronger versus Genadi (even though he lost) and could stand taller/hold centre with side pressure. This match he seemed to have no side. Would appreciate your insight!
Devon to look stronger against genadi is normal, Levan is different story
@@Engin_Terzi so you don’t think Devon lost strength and size between the Genadi and Levan match?
@@lombardy3274 Devon was much stronger against Levan compared to Genadis match. Its clear in his numbers, steroid cycle and time spent preparing for Levan.
@@AdamLighter1 he didn’t look stronger from a general physiological point of view. He looked emaciated and worn out. For Genadi he looked much healthier and had more musculature.
@@lombardy3274 He looks smaller when he's with Levan, same with Dave. When he was with Levan, he looked smaller than his other matches.
Would love to see more analyses like this🎉
Great analysis mr Terzi.
But LOL, at 9:27.... looks like Levan's biceps torn his shirt. Don't be fooled it is just a top of a head of the referee. :D
Hahahhaa it is a perfect time to pause the match.
That shock in everyones eyes when Devon stopped Levan in the center of the table, taking both his cup, riser and fingers.
There's no question on Devon's prep towards this match but he exerted too much in this first round tbh. More so that the desperation move with the shoulder underneath the table was inevitable 😆😆
Both men are legends. Much respect 🙏
Toddroll??
Awesome breakdown! Great for a novice like me.
Why did Devon get the foul in this round? Levan fouled aswell...
Devon's face speaks a 1000 words here. What I see when he looks at Levan is that he wants to show that "look I stopped you, remember me" but at the same time you see that the defeat that is coming. Beautiful match and respect for both of these incredible athletes.
This was fantastic. A lot to learn.
Great analysis
The guy on top was shocked) and thought that Levan was invincible
this tym levan played very gently he doesn't want to injure him if levan wants then he can pin him in all round. and levan beat him even he is not strong as before but still he is a destroyer...☠
That first round was epic
Devon is such a hyena... He knew that Levan injured his wrist and he jumped right away on that. He put all his training into cracking his maybe incompletely recovered wrist. A cowardly move...
Without being an expert, Levan seemed quite comfortable in the first round, even though his wrist was going back a little. My guess is that Devon was using a lot more of his power to hold that position than Levan. Devon is shaking, while Levan is still. So I think Devon would have gassed out and Levan would eventually have gotten the pin anyway.
Devon 😳
Levan 😄
DEVON VS. TODZILLA AT 105KG FOR DEVON'S RETURN!
Great analysis Engin! Thank you!
Smart strong man vs smart man
Crazy how strong devon is being 130 pounds short of Levan.
Amazing analysis thanks Engin ❤❤❤
After the slip you can clearly see Devon's soul leaving his body. DELIGHTFUL
at 9:30 looked like Levan bicep ripped through his shirt but it was the ref's bald head
There are no crackling sounds in this video taken by telephone, it means the source of crackling is in Engin's laptop, most likely microphone is damaged. I hope it will be fixed soon : )
I dont use laptop but phone in every live
Why Levan... Why did you took our Devon's soul out of his body... He is not the same eversince his loss🥲
*@Criclover397* I agree. You and I love our king Devon, for he always gets back after Levan and goes on a sweep streak against the best without losing a single round. 👑🇨🇦
Fight of the big heads
For anyone to beat levan they need the same amount of arm mass, a prime Denis cyplenkov is the only person I can think with similar mass. No one else has a chance except maybe Brian Shaw or a super roided Alex kudecha, super roided ermes, super roided vitaly or super roided georgi. Devon certainly had no chance when his arm was half the size of levans
No one is talking about adventages of devon larrat on start how he is lying and no one is talking about. If levan did the same than we would see whining. Every adventages was given to Devon and If I was referee he would be kicked by fauls.
Weight is important
And then BUMM flashpinned
I still not understand why refs stopped match way before the pin (not that the result would be different at all)
Levan Sagınaşvili hiç pozisyon vermeden maçları aldı. Tebrikler.
Will i get copy right strike if i use that clip?? 😕
Vamos falar somente do primeiro Round !!! Pois o Devon deve buscar pois só ele para vencer o Levan
When watching it live, I know everyone was going nuts thinking Devon was actually holding and challenging Levan. And then, a few seconds later, we see that Levan was just testing Devon by letting the match start in the center. I think Levan wanted to see if Devon would attempt an attack like he did with Denis. But when Levan saw Devon wasn't attacking and was just holding him, he decided to just go ahead and end it.
Levan is in his own tier, and I see only a few monsters that might challenge him over the next handful of years.
Well thats wrong. Devons backpressure was very good. Levan said himself that he couldnt go sideways because of devons pronation. Why make up stories?
@@petternordberg2883 I said nothing about whether or not Devon's back pressure was good or not. His back pressure and pronation are world class. It didn't matter. Devon got smoked.
I've been a massive fan of Devon's for a very long time. I don't let it make me biased when assessing what I watched. Levan is so far ahead of Devon that Devon admitted that the Super Heavy division is just too much for him at this point in his life. If Levan is Mount Everest, then Mount Everest cannot be climbed, or even challenged for that matter.
This is more about how ridiculous Levan is as a human being that he is that far ahead of Devon, who we have all watched beast his way through a long list of recent worthy opponents.
Idk why everyone has come to the conclusion that Levan wasn’t trying. Even Engin said that Levan’s arm was in a comfortable position, but his wrist wasn’t. If Levan attacked he would lose his wrist before he got the pin, which was way too risky. So he got in a good shoulder position and gave up his wrist in order to flip press. It was a very smart move and Devon didn’t expect him to press, even if he did idk what he could do about it.
@@Nuggs9173 Just my take here, but you seem to be describing how Levan wasn't really trying. As you said, when Levan decided to press that was it. Tranistioning to a press is definitely considered an attack. So, as soon as Levan decided to go ahead and attack, taking the press, that was it. Easy. And the subsequent rounds were so one sided there was nothing to bother analyzing.
At this point I just want to see if anyone on the planet can make it a match with this monster. I'm hoping Brian Shaw actually becomes a legit arm wrestler over the next couple years.
Levan is stronger, end of the video.
Can we talk about how HUUUGE their heads look in this video lol.
Yea just the bottom line levan is too strong. Devon stopped him. Seemed like he was stafting to work but again levan is too strong. 415lbs professional pressing anyone is really unstoppable
Devon didn't say anything that his arm got injured bcz of Levan's press
But I also feel like it got little bit injured that's why he couldn't hold Levan in further rounds
Its not injury but being in a condition to not to perform good.
Out weighed, out manned, beaten physically & mentally...
Levan 🏆
*and I'm Canadian 😐
resume a light train for Levan, easiest than train with irakli, no match here, diferent levels
I am a big fan of devon but there was a very big strength gap. Devons wrist is insane but not his bicep strength and back pressure. Yeah levan took enormous dosage or roids and peds 😂 still devon the myth. We will see how levan will be at his 50
In other sports, 120kg vs 180kg is a spanking, not a fair match. I don't know whos the better Armwrestler, but Levan is stronger by a landslide.
Not true. In boxing everyone with 91kg+ weight is in the same category of "heavyweight" and there is no upper limit.
Also, no one was complaining about weight difference when 125kg Devon won against 165kg Georgi Tsvetkov.
@@ЭльмарИдрисов-г5э I know there's no upper limit in boxing, but then again no one shows up there at 180 kgs and remains untouchable for the foreseeable future. Not a good comparison. Why would anyone complain about Devon beating Tsvetkov, it shows Devon is an anomaly. Devon getting beaten by 180kg Levan is expected. This match being close doesn't rely on the competitors being fair and level, but Devon being an even bigger anomaly and it didn't happen. If we setup all armwrestling matches in this fashion, hoping that magic will give us a good match, we'd have bad, onesided matches 99% of the time. That's why I think 120 kg vs 180 kg ist just unreasonable. I still don't know if Levan is the best armwrestler, he's the biggest for sure.
@@dfg12382 , wrong.
1. Beating a heavier/bigger opponent is a normal thing in every sport. It happens all the time. Devon is not the anomaly, Levan is.
2. Levan is not the "biggest" armwrestler. There were and still are armwrestlers that are high much (20kg+) heavier than Levan. From top of my mind Cleve Dean and Roman Shorin. Both were 200kg+ armwrestlers. Yet they didn't evem come close to Levan's strength level.
TLDR: it's not just about the "mass", it's about "mass+raw muscle strength+strength of tendons and ligaments". Levan is best not because he is "biggest", but because he exceeds others at every one of those parameters. BEST armwrestling genetics in the World (as far as we know, at least, who knows what monsters will appear in future).
A stronger armwrestler with Devon’s knowledge can beat Levan.
Devon lost 6-0 again.
what's the purpose of this "analysis" ? will we have "analysis" of the other three rounds too?)
This one was worth doing analysis.
0:33 that moment Devon realised he will never gonna beat Levan... ever !
so devon gassed out against the oxygen mask guy? lol
Top notch analysis Engin but Devons homework was flawed, he had the time to bulk up but did not, how can you even expect to win when your opponent eats and breaths armwrestling and has 33%+ more mass? huge mistake
💖🇬🇪💖
I think the version that went up against michael would have done a little bit better. That was when Devon was coming back after his health scare. Still, he was at his biggest ever. Had no problem stopping michael. Physically, I don’t think Devon can put weight on like that ever again so it was never an option. It’s going to take someone like Alex. Or a super trained experience Brian Shaw to have a chance against Levan. you need to have a big solid 300 pound frame. You can’t give up over 50 pounds if you’re going against Levan. Devon is still the goat because he can challenge pretty much everyone in three different classes.
Devon was WAAAAY stronger here... Devon made it to 290 because he got really fat but he wasn't hitting anywhere near this strength.. the videos are all there.
@@XxPlus6xX its really crazy how many of people have no idea of the progress he had made... Devon against Levan was a different human compared to MMT´s match, incomparable really. 2 years of inhuman progress is separating those 2 versions.
isnt the guy on the right like 140lbs heavier?
About 120 pounds and Devon decided to try his chance to become the absolute best in the world.
@@Engin_Terzi oh! sorry for the mistake, yes I see that point of view. Devon knew what he was getting himself into and gave it his best effort. Much respect to both athletes and thank you for your dedication the sport Engin, I wish you many happy years.
@@seancopley499thank you my friend, i wish you the same. Yes Devon was already the Superheavyweight champion and he had to pull Levan to defend his title
If Devon got serious about putting on weight he would have a chance, at that weight it's almost impossible to beat Levan
That first round actually gave the devon fan girls even more delusional hope he could pull out the win 😂
Can you do a video on what happens with Devons legs. That would be interesting LOL
Great analysis
4:32 jodi looked like some witch from movies, i was scared for a moment. ( No offense) Also engin just paused at the most scary part for a long time.
It's pretty clear to me:
Devon was simply superior in reverse side pressure. There was nothing Levan could do against that.
An expert move. Only few can do.
Lol
@@shashishekharsingh4652Devon didn’t think levan had the counter to it
It's very funny, you can see how tense Devon is, and how Levan was chilly, he just didn't dare to go on the attack right away.
create your own happiness lol
If only Devon trained arms 😅
