My man you fought even after that injury. It looks excruciating but couldn't stop you. There is a reason why we love you so much, not because you win all the matches you fight but because of your love, dedication, and madness towards this sport. Love you man!! You'll always have the same place in your fans' hearts.❤️

The fact that you lost , doesn't affect the way we see you, the need to watch your training, your matches, the things you've done and finally doesn't remove a thing from your glory. Gather together and keep going Devon! King!!
Damn, even after getting 6 - 0ed, you still have that same charisma and attitude, man. This is why you were the one most people wanted to win. Can't wait for more matches to come!
Lol - levan withdraw from practise pull just because his hand were pumped after pulling couple of guys on larry wheel channel🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 just to put things in sensible perspective what actually happened at KOTT4 - eddie hall, the strongest person on the planet withdrew from match for 6 months, and even after 6 months, in the match, he couldn't able to hold his arm up, while larratt on the other hand, after having this catastrophic injury, without ever uttering a word of complaint, continued in this unbearable condition. Neil pick up analysed this event in his podcast, devon didn't need to continue on after that but he still did for all the people across globe. as a matter of fact, everything after 2nd round means nothing.
levan is considered the powerhub, but in spite of all of power and strength advantage, he was hanging on larrat arm, and yet he was unable to bury his arm and devon is half of his weight, touching his 50's Lolll 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 claiming a victory over opponent injury means simply nothing.

As for Levan, yup got that right, "he is waaay too strong"... We are proud of him! and we are also lucky to have him represent our small, yet, very strong and magical country of Georgia!

The way you prepared, trained, fought and conducted yourselves after the match is admirable and inspirational. Fantastic event and credit to the organisers and participants. Devon and Levan are superb, much-loved ambassadors of the sport 👍
Thank you, appreciate it son 🙏
Thanks! Ayye yo Devon! Man I not too long ago watched all the matches again on Larry's channel and its crazy how all the West pullers got injured! But to rewatch knowing you got injured in the second round but yet you kept pulling is insane! You're a beast for that! You are a key part to why the sport has become so popular! I believe the state you came in could probably beat anyone else under Leavan! Levan is just another level Titan forreal forreal! Praying for your speedy recovery!

I just gotta say I think this is one of the coolest and most humble and respectful set of videos I’ve ever seen after someone loses a high stakes match. Good on you sir, representing arm wrestling well after this loss.
But you give him a pass on calling him a pussy, a fatty, and that he and his country should bow down to him after Devon beats him ? When a person is smashed ... of course they are humble. I would prefer if a person is humble before being destroyed ... not while they have their tail between their legs and being sent back to Canada. A bit late now

He got destroyed so it’s normal.
I would argue that it is just to make things interesting...after this performance from Levan everything is pretty boring. Does not look like there is anything even close to Levan. All names he mentioned are just "opponents" but not actual contenders with an actual possibility to win over 10%...
well yeah he got humbled lmao🤣
Love how Devon just laying on the floor in an airport vlogging lol
Great showing of heart! Hope you heal quickly and can feel good soon! Keep your head up cuz you're still great to all of us and are still right up at the top!
His injury is for the stupidity on RUclips shaming Georgian language. Devon got owned badly🤭🤭

Well levan is that good. He’s on that monster dose which is awesome just won’t have the longevity as he toon it to the extreme. Levan put on 200 lbs in a couple years. Watch when he first got into arm wrestling.
Same thing with Denis. The dude is awesome. Went to hulk levels of dosages and training and ruined his body.
Same with Levan.
Roids or whatever is all good in arn wrestling. Those 2 are super responders to peds.
I’m fans of all 3. Larrat is a monster. Levan is just a monster right now.

So much respect for the class & humbleness you’ve shown from the post match interview til now, considering all you put into your match with Levan and even after suffering injury.

There’s no doubt in my mind that you were ready to compete. When the arm wrestling feeds hit my RUclips over a year ago and I saw how you dominated with your level of intensity, you were my immediate favorite.

What a crazy match! For someone just getting into watching the sport I couldn't believe that you at 47 fight a giant guy with 61cm biceps! I took screenshots of those numbers to remeber this!! Even my wife was hooked to the match as you both keept sweating on that table. Respect!!

You’re the man Dev. Cant wait to see you on the table again. Heal up and stay massive big guy!
So much respect for you Devon, you can really see your love for the sport, completely unbiased opinions even after losses. Much respect
No matter you win or lose, you're still the best and legend at the same time, we all know that age doesn't lie... Thats why you are still people's champ Devon, all respect for you 👍
I still believe after that first round, had you not gotten injured, it would’ve been a much more entertaining match. A tight kings move by you still feels like you had a chance to get a stop. Once you got injured and had to try and go inside of course the strength difference was too much. We love you man, heal up. We all still believe in you. Wishing you well on your future projects!
The reason he got injured in the first place was because levan is too damn strong. That injury was inevitable.
Exactly what is said. If not injured he would have got the stop in round 3.
Devon is a warrior but no one is touching Levan for a long long time
delusional
@@user-zr5js2oo5h I partially agree. But things like this can be a freak accident. Muscle or tendon tears can just happen. People that lift weights can push the same weight every week and then just randomly tear a muscle.
Been arm-wrestling over 2 years now only because of you big guy thanks for being so genuine!
Devon, you da man! Love watching your videos and hearing your comments! You seem so very humble and want most to see the sport thrive! Second too, wanting ur family to thrive!!! You Da Man!!!
Just started watching your stuff and other arm wrestling videos and you seem like such a real down to earth guy and just wanted to say good job on that part of you bro never change 💪💪💪
A friend met Devon a few years ago and he said he was the coolest dude he's ever met.
Not many people have stated how you didn't complain about your injury during the second round, and pull the pin. You pushed through, trying all you could. 💪 Props to you Devon. I can't think of another arm wrestler who's continued in a match after an injury. You're a true champion of the sport Dev. We all know had you not been injured, that you could have been in a better position to expose any weakness over those six rounds. You were unable to go outside because of that injury in the second round. 💪💪💪 Thanks for giving it your all Devon! We were and always will be with you champ. 💪x
That’s not smart might end your career
I agree. He knew brute strength wasn't gonna do it. Had to tire him out and take levan into deep waters, but injuries happen. Shit happens. Come back Devon!
6-0
All of the guys you mentioned would be really good matches for you. You’re my favorite arm wrestler but Levan is on another level. No one can touch him right now. I appreciate your heart brotha. Hope you have a speedy recovery.
If denis trains like he did a few years back then that would be every interesting because denis was the strongest to ever grace the sport and probably ever will be
@@Ddump Buddy these guys take HGH. Look at levan' size 2-3 years back and look now.
Denis had health problems because of the same reason. They aren't verified.
Also, denis lost to dave chaffe explosive style when denis was on top of his career
I would not have done all 6 rounds if my arm exploded like that. I would have called it a day n said you got me. Devon is such a legend n best promoter in the sport imo
Ive never been a fan of that sport; I knew that we Georgians had the hulk named Levan, butttt I was not interested enough to follow the sport; However, your shit-talking and marketing skills made me dive into it!!! Despite the shit-talking, I can tell that you are a kind human being! Please keep it going; much respect from Georgia!
I was pulling for you the entire time, man! Great job! Levan's a titan. Thanks for the work and time.
How’s it going Devon? Hope your arm heals fast! Enjoy the time with your family. Dude that was so incredible of you to keep going the 6 rounds when you knew you were hurt!! Awsome man!! Levan is in a league of his own, he’s incredibly strong and can arm wrestling! I definitely have more respect for him after seeing everything I saw. I can’t wait to see where you go from here, no doubt you’ll be underestimated and when you heal you can crush anyone else out there!! You are definitely stronger than you’ve ever been, I can’t wait to see you show why you took Levan on for 6 matches, Thanks again, take care , stay safe and healthy!
What’s so dope about all of this… is that we just saw you training pr’s with Larry Wheels and Levan and Michael Tods. everyone knew how strong Levan was… way stronger than everyone else. WAAAYYY. I don’t see anyone beating him for a very very very long time. You’re a legend Dev
The pancakes may defeat Levan like they did Denis.
Oh stop
@@elrey8876 not before the roids destroy Levan, unless he takes control of his health and cut down on the roids
Speedy recovery Devon! I hope to see matches against Ermes, Kurdecha or Genadi next :)
Devon, I would love to see you armwrestle everyone you mentioned. I still don't think any of them stand a chance today against Levan. Sounds like alot of PEDSs will be required to compete at the top level in the open class. You were prepared; nothing will work against his force. You can't get him tired because he pins everyone so fast. Levan was under 200 lbs ten years ago. He is not a giant but a product of drugs. Now arwmwrestlers will join the bodybuilding and wrestling death club!
yeah its sad to see and bad for the sport
It will hurt the sport. There is a reason the USA has backed out of Olympic lifting. PED's are a corrupting force that takes sports from an exhibition of health and performance, to a circus act.
Really? He was under 200 pounds 10 years ago? I thought he was around 300 or so. It’s amazing what HGH can do! Devon went up against a Silverback!
Just over 170 in 2014 lol
He's not going to be around for long I don't think.
I was 250lbs like in 2014 and now I’m 270ish lbs in 2022 😆 don’t need any drugs to be 270lbs. Crazy how light he was in 2014 compared to now

You brought me into Armwrestling so never forget your place. You are and will always be an inspiration. Levan is simply too skilled and BIG AT THE SAME TIME. Freak of human nature. I don't see anyone left. You were the last hope. Stay strong, recover and I am watching everything you make. Make a comback, train again and when Levan's time is up, you will be #1. Take Dennis as example. His reign was up. That gave Levan the throne. -fan
I wish that tear hadn’t happened, and that we got to see you stop him a few more times, so that others knew that it was possible! You are nuts for going inside in the remaining rounds and as hard as you did, just showed your versatility and ability to adapt. Don’t know if you are still thinking about opening an armwrestling club like you talked about during your fight camp or not, but wouldn’t the victory be almost just as sweet if you trained the guy who beats him? Just some thoughts! 💪🏻
Devon didn't tear himself lol
That would not be possible. For that Levan should've had less strength, which makes speculation pointless. If not at that moment, Levan's strength would still lead to Devon's injury at any other point, since Devon is stubborn and would (well, did) go all-in. That injury wasn't accident or luck, it was part of that match.
That’s like a saying if the boxer didn’t get his ribs broken he may have won hahaha. Devon was just to weak for levan that’s why he got injured
Devon never stopped him and was going to get injured either way going against that kind of power.
@@Jordan-vr7ip Devon is actually a much stronger person he’s just not consuming dangerous levels of HGH like Levan is.

you now know what to prepare for, you are the legend and still the best in my eyes, sometimes people lose, even the best but he is not unbeatable and you have proven people wrong time and time again.
now go take time off, work on what you need and go beat his ass 🦾 hope your okay and recover quickly champ 🙂 #GOAT 🐐
Hey devon, I got introduced to arm wrestling when I came across your podcast with Lex Fridman(it was fantastic man, please do more of it). So like many, you are the first arm wrestler I knew, and you are the biggest reason why this sport is gaining more popularity now. Get well soon buddy.
It's funny how I followed both Devon and lex and I would never have imagined them both on the same podcast together lol.
Thank you for kind words son!
Your still Superman to me Devon! Mad respect to the human being you have become truly a privilege being able to witness your reign as King 👑
Top bloke and an amazing arm wrestler..Devon, you may have lost the match but you've won people over with your sportsmanship, upmost respect for you sir.
Look forward to seeing you on the table again soon and wishing you a speedy recovery.
I wonder about Andre Smaev. He was working closely with Denis Cyplenkov, and is insanely strong. If he went hard for a couple of years, without injuries... he could be a contender as well, I think.
Most definitely.
I don’t think so. His frame isn’t big enough imo-like Larry Wheels.
He is the same size as Denis, and larger than others who have put up a fight against Levan, before. So...
😆 🤣 he is a armwrestling novice, barely an amateur. Levan is a pro armwrestler.
Смаеву очень далеко до такого уровня.. Дома у него не с кем тренироваться, у Дениса он был буквально 2 раза. Ни на одних соревнованиях не участвовал. О чем тут вообще говорить.
Love what you are doing for the sport Devon!
You came up very short but we are very proud of you buddy. Nice Run you know this day was gonna come tho. It's nature. Stay humble👍

Nobody hates him…where did you get that from?

Even without winning with if you didnt get the injury rd2 I truly believe you could have stopped the match during one of the later rounds. You're a tank and a great mentor to all of us keep on trucking Devon!
@@5ur5um it means he tried to hard early on. Not saying he could have stopped it, but if he wanted only one round, he could have not went all in until the last round, wearing him down a bit first. Levans power would be a little less after 5 rounds. But we'll never know.
I gotta say that no matter what happens u r and always will be my favorite armwrestler and my hero. But I don't think anyone is beating that monster any time soon. No limits. Love ya Devon
Devon, you have a mission which transcends the matches themselves. You make the whole field flourish. For that I salute you. Keep up the good work, ambassador of Armwrestling!
I’ve always said if vitaly bulked up and gained some mass on that 6’8 frame of his I think he could have a chance against levan. Dude is crazy good already at where he’s at and he’s still young and haven’t reached his full potential yet. He already loss to levan but I still think he could be much better and stronger than what he is now. Only other guy is denis if he’s able to come back to what he was when he was at the top. If his health allows it
No chance
@@newGuldynka no chance for whom Denis or Vitaly?
If Vitaly takes a good amount of shit💉 i see him wining, he has better structure for armwrestling super tall and long ass arms.
Ermes has huge potential dude just keeps getting stronger
Don't look at the size of the man, look at the hand and wrist and bicep. That's where the fight is with Levan. Once you get over those hurdles maybe leverage and size becomes a factor, but you have to get there, and nobody is getting there.
What a beast devon u walked in like a champ and walked out like a champ with the battle wounds and didn’t hesitate for a sec to try to hide or duck from levan like some other ppl who held the hammer was afraid of losing it
Devon, you inspire me with life in general (not just in sports) with your energy and ethics. The real and deep love you have for the sport is totally contagious! If it wasn't for you I would never have been interested in all this world of armw, you are amazing! You are a true legend man! Respect! Sending love, from Brazil.
Wish you a fast and complete recovery, I believe you did the best under the circumstances (after that first round). You're still the greatest in my book, no contest :-)
I would have loved to see that kings move in the later rounds! Knew it wasn't an option after round 2 though. Incredible gusto devon. I honestly think you could have beaten pretty much anyone else that day.

Ya still probably would have been 6-0 but I think it definitely would have been longer matches
always great to hear from you and where you are at..
Devon is great even when he loses. What a humble dude! Cant wait to see him get back on the winning side of things.
The fact remains he's 400 pounds and a freak specimen. He's not losing until he gets injured, gets old, or someone in 5+ years can match his size and strength.
There's never been anyone like Levan, which tells you how hard it'll be to match him.
I'd say prime Cyplenkov was around Levan's level. He was about 320 lb fairly lean, he could have matched Levan's weight and he had stronger arms
@@darianglendenning1252 he would be the closest, but still not really *that* close. Levan is still 80# bigger, and strength in a vacuum, isolated, like being the stronger curler, means little in terms of a wrestling match. That's like guys doing pushdowns with the stack+added weight and then they bench 315.
Prime Denis definitely could‘ve won Levan. Sadly I think we won’t see that same prime Denis ever again. I prognose Vitaly to be the only real threat in the next couple years. But only if he gets more dedicated and trained again, starts getting more enhanced and stops driving trucks in full-time haha. If he makes armwrestling his profession as Levan is, he might even get better than him. He got the best preconditions and even more genetic potential than Levan
@@marvinmeyer8639 yeah no
I'm kinda curious how Jerry would do. Can levan catch and hold that press round after round? Has he ever faced such a committed dead wrist press like that? Jerry leaning his 330lbs into that arm for 6 rounds could maybe peel a round or two
Jerry is going to be like Devon in last round.
Deep In my heart... I still feel.... A 340-350 lbs you and Dennis CYPLEKNOV can beat Levan at this moment..... U needed to get bigger for the last match!.... Still ur a hero and legend to all of us no matter what.
That is what am saying, Devon did not even get as big as he did when he faced Todd. I think he will even need to exceed that size when he pulled against Todd in order for him to at least have a chance against Levan as in at least hold his hits for him to be able to do the kings move more effectively to tire him out. I think that if someone has the stamina of Todd or Devon and at the same time the strength to hold Levan's hard and kick hits then he is beatable cause he knows he doesn't have the energy for a long match, that is y he finishes match as quick as possible by running through ppl cause he is able to do so with his Damm gorilla looking strength.
@@tadeokrzos2550 really wish he got bigger.... Above 330 for sure... Guess there was not much time....
@@tadeokrzos2550 a prime Denis got everything it needs to win Levan. Sadly I think we won’t see that same prime Denis ever again
GREAT TIMES COMING!!! Heal up champ!!!
Love getting to hear your thoughts on... really about anything.. but especially on your thoughts after a defeat. can't wait to see how this molds you into something even more frightening.
_"how this moulds you into something even more frightening?"_ That'd be apt phrase for Levan. As for Devon am sure he'll step down into Rank5 to Rank15 league. He had an amazing run as an AW and we'd love to see him be the ambassador of the sport while he continues to pull elite AW on occasions. We wish him best of luck for his future endeavors whenever he resumes pulling after recovering from the injury.
@@user_1abc Devon pulled John Brzenk just last year. And John has 10 years on Devon (he's 57). People acting like this is Devon's last rodeo are going to be surprised. Levan actually runs the risk of becoming stagnant because no one posses a threat to him right now. Grant it, his "stagnate" is pretty awesome.
@@betterness23 Devon and John never had a 40 kg difference. And that 40 kg difference is despite Devon being in his heaviest/strongest form and Levan actually losing a few kgs to gain agility/endurance. And Levan of today is not just any 170 kg guy but a guy who has fantastic table IQ(which the likes of Chaffee lack) on top of herculean strength (I am told he curls more than prime Denis) and reasonably low fat % in that weight group (>150 kgs). I don't see Levan coming below 170 in the next 5 years. Devon crossing 130 (at this age) neither. So, in the next 5 years, I doubt if Devon will win a 6-round match against Levan. 10 years is not much foreseeable so won't speak about it. It's another thing that there was/is no such need for Devon to pin this one monster who is anyway way out of his regular weight class. Devon has had an amazing run as a marquee AW, and now as one of the best ambassadors of the sport. So this loss won't render his career to zilch. On the flipside this win is big deal for Levan as he has managed to remain undefeated for the last 3 years. But yeah, John is a GOAT and I too am not sure if Levan would be able to replicate John's longevity of career as epic doses of gear start back firing no matter who you are - sooner (late 20s to mid 30s) or later (mid 40s.) Thank you for your time and comment. Cheers!
Would love to hear what you were thinking after the first round as you seemed rather confident and it wasn't until the second round where you got the injury that you knew you didn't.
What was your thought? What did you feel in that first round that made you excited?
I know when I saw it, I was absolutely hyped that it was all going to your plan until of course Rd 2.
Would love to hear your thoughts and of course always supporting you and Canada proud!
I'm curious too
thanks for the video Devon, wishing u a fast recovery
Devon thanks for all you've done & continue to do for the sport. After the first round you were confident you would get him. The second round you get injured. After the match you implied he's unbeatable. Do you think that even without being injured in the 2nd the result would have been the same?
Devon's Candidates who could beat Levan, and my attempt to learn about them.
Up-comers:
1) Ermes #Gasparini (just 106-120kg, 4x World and Multi time European champ, currently in his peak and getting stronger)
2) Alex #Kurdecha (massive 150kg, age 33 Polish Champion)
Russians (they've had few international competitions due to the Ukraine crisis):
1) Dmitri #Silaev (age 23, huge dude, higher body fat than Levan)
- Was just defeated by an 85kg opponent.
2) Vitaly #Laletin (110-135kg, age 33, 159kg grip strength)
- 7x World Champ
3) Denis #Tsyplenkov (144kg, age 40, Strict Curl world record of 113kg)
- Devon would love to see them fight with both arms for a chance to have the Legacy Hammers united)
Any new giants would need 5-7 years to have a chance against Levan Devon estimated.
- Partial curl of 300lbs
- Wrist curl of 220lbs
I imagine Devon observed a similar phenomenon as in other unlimited weight class sports: Bodybuilding (current champ 135kg vs Arnold 107kg), Boxing (Ali 191cm/107kg vs Tyson Fury 209cm/120kg). To beat a skilled giant like Levan, we'll need a more skill or stronger opponent.
None of them are even a factor for Levan. This is just for hype. People don't understand that Levan is in his own league now.
@@misutatomasu younger Denis tho
the mountain
@@canevas1017 we can’t time travel write it in your fanfic
@@psychicmane7636 ik I'm just saying Denis would at least give him a tough time if not beat him
Great job champ you gave it your all. Can’t be upset when you know you gave everything
Levan is strong but, the way you used to hold your opponent is beyond ..you are inspiration to arm wrestling sports..get well soon
I think it says a lot that right after the match when Levan was asked who would be next, he said either maybe Denis if he came back or a rematch with Devon. I think that really shows that, despite being a little ticked at him at times, Levan still holds Devon in high regard.
It was too easy for him after his bicep tore levan said he felt his strength got decreased like 40% and also endurance for like 4 rounds think that’s why he wants to face him again at his best without injury however Devon is getting old but never say never DEVON IS LEGEND EITHER WAY
You don't consider this the real match. Just sparring on the highest level. Hats off to you bro
It's a battle for who can consume the highest levels of PEDs in the shortest amount of time. In a few years, we may start to see people dropping like flies, like we see now in bodybuilding.
No way in hell Levan got to be that huge without a cocktail of PEDs. He may be the first to suffer severe health issues. His heart was not designed to pump enough blood to fuel 400 pounds. He's 6'3", not 6'11".
Strong is strong man
Thank god you never said MMT, of course MMT still believes he has a chance against Levan lol With that injury Devon, no one can say you didn't give it your all.
If Mike carries on that "I think I stand a chance Vs Levan" stuff then he's going to start seeing his own "The Delusional..." series
Mmt don't stand any chance he is dreaming and wanting a payday.
Would you want Michael to be anything less? 😁
Mmt can't beat davon now. Then how mmt can beat levan 😅. Maybe this is the most powerful version of davon.
Britec09? The only computer genius I go to when I need help. Didn't expect to find you here hah :)
You are still the best , you make armwrestling awsome, a true sportman and your showmanship is on aonther level.
If only Andre the Giant had also arm wrestled. Imagine that 7-foot frame, huge hand, and legendary strength put to use training for arm wrestling.
i was thinking the same thing, thats really what it would take to beat levan a guy the size of andre. would be awesome to see that but there just is no arm wrestler in the world like that , all the biggest guys are not arm wrestlers and like devan says it takes at least 5 years to become a proper arm wrestler, body builders that are just coming in start very weak, . Thats why its so clear levan gonna be champ for such a long time cause no one has the size he has and has the technique as well. Even denis at his prime prolly would have lost to levan. The best chance from my view is VITALY LALETIN , if he gained 80 lbs of pure muscle he could give levan a great fight . But he would have to juice for a solid year. But he is the best option he has the best bone structure . i think he could gain another 80lbs but not sure he wants it bad enough to go that far.
@@Financere425 cleve dean
@@Financere425 I agree with just about everything you said. A roided up Vitaly at 350+ pounds with more heavy training would stand a good chance against Levan.
He simply may be untouchable at this point in his career. He's the undisputed King, and has nothing left to prove IMO. Then again, so few athletes ever retire on top. So anything is possible. But because the "AW math" is all over the place with respect to most of the contenders you cite, e.g., Kurdecha beats Ermes, but Ermes beats Genadi, then Genadi beats Chaffee, but Chaffee beats Kurdecha, and, of course, Levan had already destroyed Chaffee, it's impossible to know if any of them have a chance against Levan! And if Levan's movie career takes off, it's hard to see the incentive to continue to maintain that level of fitness for a sport that offers so little - except the glory of the battle and being number one in the world. BTW, I think "Ulysses' Arm" is a perfect name for your upcoming documentary, regardless of what Ruaridh may think!
Nothing left to prove???? He JUST got the hammer. Hes not even 30 I dont think. Hes gotta defend the title. Wtf you talking about. You don't stay king of the mountain by just getting to the top. You gotta stay king. John brzenk doesn't have anything left to prove, but he's still going strong at 57.
@@theshapeexists Okay. Who do you believe has a real, legit chance against him, then?
@@GA-1st nobody in their current form. If Denis Cyplenkov could reach pre surgery levels he might be able to do something. Laletin on tons of gear might be able to gas him, but even that's doubtful. But he needs to be open to fight any challengers that think they may have what it takes. If someone like Brian Shaw went under the tutelage of Devon For a few years, he would probably be our best bet. And honestly for aging strongmen, armwrestling would be a great sport to transition to. You can do it well into old age compared to deadlifting 1200 pounds.
@@theshapeexists I just don't see the incentive for him to wait and face the physical/health downsides of doing so. Maybe if he were paid a lot more, it'd be worth it to him. It'd be interesting to see a poll on how many AW fans would seriously doubt his dominance and place in AW history if he retired now. I do think they'd be disappointed, but I'm not convinced most fans would say he still had too much to prove, if anything. But, of course, I could be wrong on that.
@@GA-1st imagine if Ali, Tyson, Jordan, Brzenk, Brady, James, any if the greats retired after their first championship. What a freaking waste. Imagine if Brzenk retired at 25. He wouldn't be the greatest. Its total insanity to suggest for anybody to quit just because they reached a certain level. Sure in Cypkenkovs case it made sense. But Levan isn't even 30. Hes still growing as a competitor. Hes got a lot to learn
I can sit and listen to Devon talking for hours. Very soothing. Get better soon, legend.
Just so you know how very much you are loved and respected Devon. Following your career is a pure pleasure. Take some time to rest, heal, and enjoy life with your fabulous family. So much respect to you for being the awesome warrior and soldier you are. ❤💪
I vote for Andrey Smaev, he still needs a few years to really improve his armwresting technique. Get well soon Devon, greetings from Hungary 🙏
I Vote for Ernest Gaspirini or Corey West
@@hadia7733 west just lost
I second this, it terms of raw arm power I think Smaev has it in him. But he's not really an armwrestler so who knows if he would ever try to reach the top level.
You’re still a Champ Devon! Keep going!
Even with the incredible charisma, photogenic good looks, manliness, oratory skills, quality advice and mentoring to fans, PR skills and promotion of the sport that Levan has, I still think you are needed Devon. So keep up the good work man.
Levan has all of what you mentioned, including Photogenic looks?
You need to seriously revise your list of attributes you have for Levan.
People in the comments obviously don't understand sarcasm.
@@tioswift3676 Yeah! I myself am surprised. I thought it was a typo
@@DexKen Thank you, I was starting to think commenters came from the same genetic pool as ...
Thank you for being a great ambassador for the sport of Arm Wrestling, and Thank you for being a good sport after the match!
Saw the injury to your arm... I hope that heals up well.
I'm from Georgia and i live in Toronto! i want to say thank you for your respect and for your words and of the battle!! You are big soul man! Thank you!
Devon -- good points. I've been watching you for awhile now. You are still my favorite. I think you would benefit greatly -- after the injury heals -- to add a powerlifting / bodybuilding routine into your training and see where it takes you. I can't help but think if you were just a little stronger and had a little more mass you could have held off Levan and used or stamina to tire him out.
I think its going to be Ermes.. he seems special in his own way.
