  1. When measurements are real close. Whichever measurements you are talking about at any given time. Be it hand size or whatever. It doesn't particularly matter.

  2. that weight held 20 or 30 seconds like that.. RIP everyone. Mind you Eddie says those are his numbers as well. Not sure he said he could hold it that long though lol

  3.  @Figment-  Yeah. That is more accurate if anything. From what I saw.

  4. In a fight. :D Brian wouldn't fight you, come at you, unless you threatened his family. Or you are Edidie Hall lol

  5. LMAO it's called having long arms and reach :D

  6. Devon is 6ft 5 as his Wife says. An Brian is 6ft 7 these days I'd say. Also lost an inch since like his 20s. You can lose an inch anything after 30.

  7.  @farishassan1547  Well also I saw Brian pin Auden in their last vid. Audens face going all red. Not see that one?

  8.  @farishassan1547  No pleasing some people. You brought it up first.

  9. It's varied between 23 an 26 over the years. Brian is so huge his arms not pumped, and him at his lightest weight for god knows how long 380lbs lol A month or two ago, doing the MMA stuff. Were still 23" I doubt Brian's arms have been below 23" since maybe 22 years old.

  10. @DeadLifter-rl9en Yep. Like I say I'm sure he'll work it out sooner or later. Same table or not.

  11.  @zzzzzz69  He said 2 years to be right up there. Which can mean the best of course.

  12.  @Ivanimirus  Tbh I think Brian has gradually been getting ready for arm wrestling longer than we think.
    2
  13.  @Copycat9119  It is. Levans forearms are way shorter than Brian's. People with short stocky forearms give the illusion of having larger forearms but it's not always the case. An actually both guys largest forearms measurements they ever had, was the same around 19.5"
    2
  14. In many vids he looks a similar size to Eddie. So he is a much bigger than average sized guy himself. No idea what his actual stats are suppose to be though.

  15.  @kingconann9998  And if I know most American vehicles it was likely a big ass strong heavy door as well. lol
    2
  16.  @giovanni5954  I mean another strongman once broke another strongmans arm but that's different. The strongman who did that was also a European champ arm wrestler. And the other guy knew nothing about arm wrestling.

  17.  @Shane_Diesel_2010  Training is a funny thing. No one really knows how much power an effort the other person is putting into it, or not.
    2
  18.  @lucasetche  Even Brian wouldn't tell you he's 3 times stronger than Eddie right now :D
    2
  19. That is the one time Brian went down on the floor in strongman over like 20 years. lol Eddie went down more in FAR less years. Good trolling though. Many times Brian was last man standing after lung busting Truck pulls, while others fell to the floor needing oxygen.

  20.  @johngiles6376  A very smart one. You don't get where Brian has in life without being very adult an serious when needs be.
    2
  21. Devon, ots close. I bet that's true.
    2
  22. It doesn't they'll both be 100% trying on the match night. An you could say the same about some of Devon's trash talks an antics over the years. But of course none of it is actually taking the piss out of armwrestling.
    2
  23. Legs an calves are still in 2004.
    2
  24. When Brian makes that noise you know the heavy heavy weights are in play :D
    2
  25. Nah if you analyze it constructively as Konkreet himself does. I think right there an then it was a genuine stonewall. When Devon has done stuff with people like Khalad, he shouts Oh he's strong etc And you can tell it's larking around, messing about mostly. This with Brian is serious get down to business training. A genuine stonewall for a second there.

  26.  @chrzoc  Who carries 400lbs plus of body weight better. Is the question. Who's been that kind of weight for a long time.

  27. Levan has so few matches you could call him a part timer. :D I think he knows he can't build up to what he does too regular at all. Do to his body what he does.
    2
  28.  @Latinomicz  No one, deffo not me has said Brian could beat Levan right now. Brian has many attributes as I listed. He has a BIG head start when compared to your average joe starting out at arm wrestling. They do count for something even in the arm wrestling world.
    2
  29.  @krisztianmezei888  Is arm wrestling more a strength sport or a technique dominant sport. It seems like even Devon says it's ultimately a strength sport. NBA an NHL are nothing alike imo.
    2
  30.  @0ldPlayer  That's hilarious. So Levan would be a violent guy towards Brian you are saying? He's arm wrestled other non pros before an not broken anything. Me I don't think Levan is that guy to do things that way. Also if Brain's wrists can handle the force of 800lbs of weight as he did recently. I'm sure he could handle Levan's pressure.

  31.  @coolmemesbudd  What. No one is acting more of a child than yourself here. You are clearly very triggered. Chill.

  32.  @amandahuginkiss4098  Well look whom the opponent was not exactly a mere average person either. No on can train like a maniac an be good at anything they train for. Clearly it's not guaranteed.
    2
  33.  @Irenicus33  But again that doesn't mean he could beat Brian at the grip strength tests he's done on his channel. Against other strongmen. And in comparison he makes them look weak in that area. GM150 is just one test of grip strength.
    1
  34.  @Irenicus33  Granted we don't know for sure. As neither has done the other persons tests.

  35. It's not about winning... It's about that specific moment. It's not about the fake/training pinning.

  36. Of course Brian is REALLY strong. But even more so when he decides to go for something. He goes 100% ALL IN. He's one of the most competitive people ever. The latter two things should be even more worrying for the pros.
    1
  37. I think Devon's issues against Levan are partly size and weight sure, but more down to age and what his body has been through. Once you hit 40 every year after that hits harder than it does in your twenties an thirties. Someone just into their 40s versus someone almost 50 can be quite a difference. More difference than between a guy 32 and 38, or 22 and 28 for example.

  38.  @johnhawes2262  Well obviously only matches can really prove it. So sure he hasn't had one yet of course.

  39. His face has IBS.

  40. It will be 125lbs the dumbbell isn't large enough to be 125kg. Not for that type an shape of dumbbell at least. If it was KG it would be a new world record as you state which stands at about 115kg. As a comparison there is footage around not sure from when of Brian Shaw curling 100lbs dumbbells one in each hand like it's easy. Clearly he could do more. 125lbs is obviously superb. But it's not 125kg.

  41.  @iilefox4173  Personally I've also watched various arm wrestling stuff on an off for a long time. Not as regular as some I'm sure. Devon got me interested again to start with. I was decent as a young guy myself just messing around with buddies, arm wrestling door staff in clubs that kind of stuff.

  42.  @highrankgodmc  You've clearly lost the plot now.

  43.  @DoctorStrange01  I'm sure his wife has also warned at some point you better be making something of this armwrestling you're spending plenty of our money on it now. lol

  44.  @Anonymous-hy8cn  Look it up.

  45.  @ktos25  You again. lol There is a vid. Go look.

  46. Get in there before Brian does that's the spirit :D
    1
  47.  @davidgre395  Yes. lol If Brian gets good enough an strong enough in arm wrestling specific stuff to hold Levan. He could just burn him out to collapse no problems. Don't even need to pin. Well with exhaustion will come pins. Brian could end up with so many options in his locker.

  48. 125lbs is superb. Until you note that Anatoly can dumbbell curl I think about 90lbs. Maybe more. And he weighs no more than 78kg. :D

  49. It's crazy how much better he is than anyone else. Sadly I actually bet Eddie and Brian would have hold him better than Jerry did. Ermes still gave him the hardest test that I've seen over recent years.

  50.  @truthbombs-ii7ke  Lol I'm very sorry I was feeling like a bear with a sore head when I posted that. ;) It was late at night for me. :D
