Yep, Zero natural ability besides his height - very slow, TERRIBLE reaction time, not strong, small hand in terms of heavyweights... etc. But like Bagent says, he LOVES armwrestling more than you. So he'll kill himself on PEDs - quit his job, and workout all day. Great work ethic. It's amazing that he has gotten so far on work ethic and PEDs without natural ability. Kudos to him. He's a great example of no matter how bad you are at something at the start - you can get better eventually. Even if it takes 20 years. ( albeit with illegal drugs and a psychotic work ethic. )

People see Devon in all his glory and think it’s all just a good time, but I can tell you I wouldn’t be willing to do what he does. I mean he trains non stop everyday, has tunnel vision, doesn’t do much else aside from this sport, he has a boring life at times when he is by himself with the cameras off and training rep after rep, treatment after treatment, flying on a plane literally every. Week year round. We only get to see the fun and exciting parts of his life online, we don’t see the 10 hour layovers at airports and all the other shit.

Michael has one of the biggest egos in all of arm wrestling. His ego won't allow him to duck. He'll make excuses for a loss to protect his ego. But he will at least try to match up.
