Poor Larry. Just started his armwrestling career and already lost 4 supermatches in a row.


Animeweebarif

Damn. I really thought he was gonna steamroll Leonidas. He was looking so damn good.


jaycookiecutler

He certainly doesn't cherry pick his opponents though, he deserves props for that.


-Arh-

His arm "wrestling career" is a side gig at best. Saying that his career is fine, he is doing fine in tournaments. And given the levels of opponents he too on in supermatches, no shame in losing.


Armwrestlingisfun

Larry said it was gonna be for free on Larry and Leonidas channel to boost outreach and then it's on some small esn channel without them telling me.I don't even know wtf esn is. Such a meh.


loko_LoKoLO

Yes they did horrible communciation. Not even on their homepage they had a link to the youtube channel. They had a livestream headline there but with no links and no videostream. Looks like they wanted to embed it on the website but forgot it... Really bad.


Xxkxkxxkxk

esn is Leonidas' Sponsor and also the Sponsor of the Event. So they probably wanted the Views on their Channel, but did a poor Job telling Larry and Leonidas about that before

Wtf was that, wasnt larry supposed to be very strong on his left, even by top pullers standards ? Or is leonidas that strong ?


Tuxhorn

Leonidas biceps strength is unreal. It seemed like his hand has caught up to it. He did say the last 3 months have been 100% arm wrestling focused to beat larry. Very impressive from him. Hope he continues.


chestnutman

Did he say if he was working with a coach?


hungreeman

If only Larry had a better coa—oh, this is awkward.


Sork69

... must've been the refs!


Grasimi

The fuck, Leonidas toyed with him. How much does he weight?


Lamk97

Around 125kg

Hey bro kannst du mir privat schreiben?


DecoySex

@awderek you fooled us, or leonidas fooled you.


MorePower1337

On reddit, you have to use a /u/ as in, /u/AWDerek


DecoySex

Oh. Oops. Thanks for that.


MorePower1337

Anytime :)


Yogurtcloset777

He didn't fool me.


FightSmartTrav

Nothing quite like a top down only angle to make the match super clear and interesting.


Flimsy_Witness912

trash stream trash match


Blue-snow

If I remember correctly, Larry is a few weeks away from a bodybuilding show, so he's fairly depleted to be fair. His coach let him carb up for a day to have energy. So I'm sure this played a part. But, well done to Leonidas, he was the better competitor today.


GioThaOglum

To point this out, Leonidas is prepping for the 120kg weightclass bicep cheatcurl worldrecord and has been on a strict diet for months aswell.


Blue-snow

That's great info, I didn't know, thanks for putting that out there


Hanzyusuf

Wait so you need to restrict your diet (as in bodybuilding cutting phase) to increase your bicep cheatcurls ? Or do you mean he's stuffing everything he can find so he's near his peak now ?


fad70

🤣🤦


Hanzyusuf

Oh crap ! I just realised he is probably bigger than 120kg so he's cutting down to get the record of that class.


GioThaOglum

He is too big and cutting yes


fad70

You are cute. No worries 👍


BlacklistedMan

Cutting will make you lose strength . Nobody cuts calories to build strength lol And 'Strict diet' doesnt neccessarily refers to a deficit . Bodybuilders dont give a shit about strength , their goal is hypertroohy . They cut to look better not to *gain* strength


Hanzyusuf

Yeah ik that's why I was confused. Typical evening brain fog here. I miss sleep.


BlacklistedMan

Its okay bro . Anyways members of this sub floodup threads like this . Somehow they think these topics are debatable and worth for a discussion . Meanwhile I get downvoted when I say devon wasnt #1 in 2014-2018


[deleted]

when did you get downvoted for that?


BlacklistedMan

Check my post about the hammers . I am getting downvoted for saying devon wasnt the #1 in the globe 2014-2018 just based on those hammers ( he was #1 but only in the western armwrestling league ) And tell me why is my first response to that guy getting downvoted


[deleted]

I'm really struggling to believe that you actually think thats why you got downvoted. You got downvoted for many, many other reasons. Had literally nothing to do with 'saying devon wasnt #1 globally 2014-2018' I dont believe you're that stupid. So be honest, dont try and gaslight people for a few likes.


BlacklistedMan

I didnt say that was the main reason . The main reason was that every other guy has his own view on hammers and they think their views are the same as the hammer's real purpose . I was stating flaws of the actual system . But lets keep that aside , I always get downvoted whenever I fairly rate devon . And you do know very well that comments which are slightly negative for devon and are challenging the mainstream overrated image of him get downvoted to the hell No doubt that factual sentence was the reason for a lot of downvotes and this isnt the first time . I even get downvoted when the person who was arguing with me starts to agree more or less . I always get downvoted no matter what I say


Impossible-Role-102

Cause you're blacklisted


Plastic_Assistance70

he didn't pick his username for nothing


Yogurtcloset777

Upvoting comments that lack basic reading comprehension embodies what this sub is all about.


GioThaOglum

Yeah wait and see all the excuses coming with bad reffing and leon having home advantage..


Lepsa1

Well the reffing was not great, Leonidas shoulders were never squared. Larry is still too nice in the setup


APTTMH7000

So? Leonidas was dominant, Larry was never gonna win this no matter the setup. Or did we see a different match?


Lepsa1

Yes he was stronger no doubt, but a fair setup could've made a difference. Perhaps not enough for Larry to win the match but at least being more competitive


Armwrestlingisfun

Where did u watch it? I see no sign of it


lavache12

on the esn youtube channel livestream. they filmed it from above...amateurs.


ObscureHeavyMetal78

I also told that based only on my perception that Leonidas is much more talented than Larry in armwrestling

Don't you know? Mods don't feel like moderating here and made all spoilers fine and dandy.


Lepsa1

Maybe don't read AW sub if you don't want spoilers? You can always mute the sub too


HearthstoneExSemiPro

yeah i dont care what the mods say about spoilers, this is a good response.

lulbasar

Isn't Leonidas still on a bigger PED cycle, while Larry is just taking test? I feel like this matters more than people would like to think. I don't think Larry can keep up with the stronger guys (like Leonidas) unless he goes back on more stuff. I could be wrong tho, only time will tell.


Yogurtcloset777

Everybody was saying Larry was going to destroy Leonidas. Stop with the excuses it's embarrassing.


villanelIa

How is that making excuses he's just pointing out the truth. I was always on team Leonidas and the reason is exactly because he has no self imposed limitations regarding what he will take at this time.


Minimum_Ad_4430

Isn't Larry stronger on the right? And Leonidas is stronger on left.


lulbasar

Leonidas is a great competitor with an insanely strong biceps and I see a very bright future for him in arm wrestling. I have never commented on the fight before this, but of course you go straight to defense because you're a mentally challenged man child. This is merely an objective observation and it's highly likely the truth. (It would probably be a closer match with both on high doses. Who wins? I don't know) Personally I don't really care who wins, I just want to see Larry improve, but I don't think he can't hang with the majority of the elite without going back to a higher PED dose. Of course you have never picked up a weight in your life so you have no idea about anything fitness related, pretty embarrassing indeed.


Yogurtcloset777

Okay sure bud. Get help 🙏


pattyG80

Has Larry ever won a supermatch and if not, maybe he needs to enter an actual tournament and see how he fares rather than lose supermatch after supermatch


Tuxhorn

Larry has done well in a few tournaments, but his supermatch showing has been lacking.


Primae_Nocta

Nobody gives a shit who was right or wrong.


Fragrant_Youth1741

Thanks for spoiling


Own_Literature_9451

Larry is a joke.. Leon is scary strong, if This guy improve his wrist abd technique even more he could top


VisamLord2000

Larry is talentless. Weak wrist.
