madknight Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 Well if there are weight classes in armwrestling, I guess he'll have the advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mightyjoe Posted October 24, 2009 Share Posted October 24, 2009 That picture is not manipulated either. Matthias is a very competitive arm wrestler and I believe he has a rare genetic defect that has his right limb larger than his left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrojetred Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 There also seems to be a large tumor on his neck limfnode, causeing him to have 18" forearms. It's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrojetred Posted October 25, 2009 Share Posted October 25, 2009 (edited) They call him, "HELLBOY." Does he dominate????????? Let's see. Edited October 25, 2009 by Puller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthsith19 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 As far as I know he has the biggest forearm in the World pound for pound. If he the best 154 lbs. armwrestler in the World? No but he is very good. http://www.worldofarmwrestling.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5315 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightertrainer Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) Watching the video I wonder why he kept going into the hook, his bicep wan't that strong once his opponent lay on it. His opponent think is Ali Khan and is very good! Toproller woul have a tough time with him Edited October 29, 2009 by fightertrainer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHRUG Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 That dude definitely needs to do some research on his opponents before he pulls them, either that or his freakish size in not giving him ANY kind of a strength advantage. He got owned pretty hard in that match. His bicep looks to be very weak as the other dude was able to open up his arm very easily and pin him with little resistance on the part of HELLBOY. I was expecting him to crush the shit out of that guy, when you see him approach that table it is like, YIKES, but his performance seems to say otherwise.

RPGoodfellow Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 That's BONKERS! I've never seen anything like that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthsith19 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 (edited) LOL for anybody who says his biceps are weak! 1) His biceps are stronger than yours 2) Just because he has a huge forearm doesn't automatically make him the best armwrestler in the world. 3) You can research your opponent all you want (and I'm sure he did) but that doesn't mean you're going to win. He is a 2-time national champion, the other guy was just stronger. Edited October 29, 2009 by Josh H Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrojetred Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 He doesn't seem to have any stamina. He just bends his wrist and tries to turn him over. And his body is tiny. You don't just use your arm in armwrestling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florian Kellersmann Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Matthias has lifted a thomas inch challenge dumbbell to full deadlift. Bodyweight was 70kg or below. He is STRONG, not just big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightertrainer Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I did check it out Florian. That's weird he said that and his profile pic showing him winning with a toproll. LOL I know hook is very macho, mano-a-mano syle for many of us. But one must think about a born-advantage like the one he has. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florian Kellersmann Posted October 30, 2009 Share Posted October 30, 2009 I don't see anything weird. Are you an armwrestler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightertrainer Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I don't see anything weird. Are you an armwrestler? Yes I am an AWer/drummer/martial art instructor/fitness trainer, Florian. The matches he had with Ali Khan, 1st match he won with toproll, then every matches after that Ali went to hooks and and won handily. Hat off to Ali to adjusted to the fight. I watched many of others Mathias matches too, it seemes the matches he lost alsway in hook, yet he said his favorite style is hook. It's said in another board that at WAF his opponents just lay on the biceps and he would lose. Yet! he still like to hook, clearly personal choice, but not neccsarily the best choice at WAF. Did you ever see Rustam toproll? He hook as he said he's a hooker. Lifting the Inch is great feat he did any way. BTW, I used to train with Gary Ray in Houston awhile back. I don't compete that much, but I live and breath AW. I spend more times in work out doing AW related exercises, than any others workout. Don't know why you feel offened when I said what I said, and asked me such a question. That is not neccessary neither on your part. And I always thought you were the one who is more polite here.
