HandsofStone Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 All I can say is wowwwww!!!! I didn't think Mendelson had an arm that could take down Bagent being there's so much more technique involved. Although, I'm not really too surprised Mendelson's press was going to be the way he put down Bagent in the straps. That was AWESOME!!

Sam Scott Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Quite Obvious the Bagent didn't go full effort.Otherwise, Chaffee would kill Mendelson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasparov Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Dang! Mandelson just started arm wrestling competitively this year, didnt he?.. And not only is he on a table with Bagent, but beating him? Wuuuut? I know Bagent is a beast lefty, but his right aint exactly a pushover either. Absolutely no pushover with the right.....he's beaten a strong brzenk with that right...that says it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Walker Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Why are the heavy weights 230 and up? Hes giving up 100 pounds on Mendy, isnt he? I know jack shit about the sport but 100 pounds is alot of weight.... I didnt even know Mendy was still alive. Last I saw him he got out of breath doing an interview and had that fluid in the lungs cough every 5 seconds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Roussin Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Like in other sports, weight classes in armwrestling vary by organization. The World Armwrestling League (the leading professional league) has just four weight classes: 165/195/225/226+. They have fewer classes so that they can offer bigger prizes provide better television coverage. If you can only have four classes, the debate becomes which four are the best? In armwrestling, many of the top 225-lb pullers are able to compete right along with the top super-heavyweights. Elite pullers like John Brzenk, Devon Larratt, and Marcio Barboza are examples. This is one of the reasons that there isn’t as much of a need for a higher weight class as perhaps there would be in other sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha I know I am late on this one but he raises a good point. Not that I am a Travis fan or fanatic but I do know he is known for his lefty hand power and is known to be weaker on the right side.

JoshW Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Would be interesting to see devon arm wrestle scott. I think devon would win based on his strength but mainly his endurance, he will make scott work for it, tire him out then get the pin.

Lots of basic adjustments one can make throughout a pull, but the more important factor is being strong enough to get, and hold those positions. Strength is the best technique 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Roussin Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 I can't say I'm surprised. Herman's a great puller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Raftopoulos Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 (edited) Yes he is, and much lighter than Scot. Scot only got one win on Saturday from what I remember. Travis was the winner of the supers Edited September 12, 2016 by Evan Raftopoulos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
