Devon Larratt "Michael is better than Ermes..."

[@bradbutler]

Devon saying that doesn't surprise me at all. he has started to embrace supporting team West fully, and as much as he loves the Kings move of course he said that lol

[@YeeLeeHaw]

How is Ermes not a part of team west? He's Italian for Christ sake, the country where we got our letters and our language evolved from. Engin's rules is one big mess.

[@Rosso-h3b]

​@@YeeLeeHawAgree italy should definitely be team west and so should sweden, don't understand where they draw the line

[@Fleppo]

@@Rosso-h3b Atlantic Ocean separates East vs seat in this case? :)

[@Rosso-h3b]

@@Fleppo You're right, I guess I just don't agree with drawing the line there but fair enough

[@bradbutler]

@@Fleppo exactly. The lines do change depending on who's fighting who. if a European is fighting an Asian, then the European is team West. With Michael (North American) versus Ermes(Italian), Michael is definitely team West.

[@jameswebb3410]

Ermes is by far the heavy favourite in my opinion.

[@MichaelBrown-wx6zq]

Yea he's strong enough to blast through that kings move

[@theenlightenedone1283]

Ermes will win ❤ but it wouldn't be easy

[@OlegOlexiev]

Ermes in his shape against Vitaly is gonna beat MMT. Michael got 2 out of 3 pins over Genadiy by explosive press, i don't see this working against Gasparini

[@Armfan17]

And don’t forget genadi just came back. I won’t even talk about round 1 in which Todd’s arm was completely straight.

[@mence5992]

​@@Armfan17 i dont think there Is a rule against straight arm, Just the parallel rule

[@Armfan17]

@@mence5992 so how do you pin a guy, when he is completely straight? You basically have to lift his whole body as well. Do you think it’s possible to do it? Stop supporting such moves for real.

[@gavinma4831]

@@Armfan17climb technically I guess. Don’t just power through like an idiot. That’s like asking how Devon beat him.

[@ccbgaming6994]

@Armfan17 Ermes showed how to in this video. Did you not even watch it and go right to the comments?

[@anderswallin3883]

Don't forget that Michael has that deadly press now as well, not just the kings move

[@Mk5Rob]

MMT was small when he first started arm wrestling. He wasn't a super heavyweight, and he was a hook puller, not a King's Mover like he is now....

[@mike7419]

Rooting for MMT but Ermes is a beast. He has the endurance and power necessary to grind out pins against Todd's kings move. Ermes might lose a round due to fouls but he wont get pinned. 3-1 Ermes.

[@caseydupre5376]

He’s gonna flash him like he did to jerry

[@dchiuppi91]

The disrespect towards ermes lately is wild

[@Faraz_khan0]

I just cannot see Micheal going past Ermes or Vitaly, let alone going after Levan. Don't get me wrong. He's in really good shape rn, but I just don't think he's better than Ermes (if he manages to recover fully and reach his peak shape) or this enhanced full-time version of Vitaly.

[@natepolidoro4565]

Ermes is without a doubt the favorite

[@09shelby15]

I highly disagree. We just watched s practice with ermes and devon and ermes has no answer for devons hand wrist snd pronation. Where mmt is actually stronger than devon in those areas now. I would say ermes is the underdog. He doesn't pull well against guys who take hand control. Mmt has more ways to win than ermes. Good top roller but once he loses his hand he's done

[@DevexTRE]

@@09shelby15Different styles, michael could be stronger in the lifts but weaker on table

[@force-09]

Right now Ermes crush Todd, Devon, Cadorette without doubts

[@Realityhere-xj9bf]

@@force-09 no in rematch devon win ermes and jerry healthy win ermes and mmt win ermes likely.

[@mence5992]

​@@09shelby15Ermes pinned Devon something Like 20 times before gassing out. And on the event you have time between rounds. Not the Same thing at all

[@diadem03destiny29]

I do think that Mike has a very good shot at beating Ermes if he can drive him past centre at the beginning of the match and thus putting Ermes on the defensive. If that happens, then Mike will automatically be able to use his pronation to slowly climb. I can’t see Ermes beating him with a press if the top roll fails because Mikes Kings is perfect for negating it. I think it’s gonna be a long battle of climbing. When Devon says he thinks Mike is the smarter arm-wrestler, he basically means that Mike knows when to press to win, when to kings, when to hook and when to go over the top in certain rounds. It’s a reasonable thing to say since Devon melted Ermes and made him look lost.

[@CHIPSTERO7]

Devon and Michael are close friends, so of course he's gonna be bias.

[@oceanwaves83]

It's also his philosophy of arm wrestling. He wants almost everything legal. He'd really like to see freedom arm wrestling take off.

[@YFun-ux5rs]

Ermes is like the worst matchup possible for MT aside from Devon. Only Levan and Devon have Ermes’ number and everyone else is an underdog against him.

[@JamesMorgan-ne8qu]

Devon looking for that Todd rematch.

[@jolteon1019]

Old video... that doesn´t mean much today. Ermes has evolved

[@ArnoldLarsen90]

MMT had a big injury when he pulled Ermes and got challenged on his vacation. That match is not an indicator of how it will go now.

[@simone1395]

and ermes was like 100 kg lol

[@giulio_yt651]

Ermes was 100 kg😂😂😂

[@AbissoSTG6168]

Brother I'm impartial i like Ermes and Michael at the same level,but I check the reality.Ermes was 100kg skinny guy Cmon even Ermes was in worse shape so this match is a pure indicator.

[@giulio_yt651]

@AbissoSTG6168 is an indicator that ermes will do same thinks but with 20% more power.

[@nosferatu5818]

I find Michael’s comeback inspirational. But Ermes is my favorite for this match

[@aliveforspeed8273]

Per me Ermes lo batte facilmente ...

[@nickd.7267]

I see this going exactly like this match

[@Imdarealev4n75]

That would suck I don’t care if one of them gets destroyed just not ending on fouls in my opinion tho I can definitely see Ermes wrist getting cracked forced into a press and potential pinning Micheal or Micheal will gas Ermes or flash pin presses from Micheal but who knows

[@DarthAdriann]

It can never look like that, you can not kings move with your shoulder below the table on east vs west or king of the table

[@thatarmwrestler]

​@@DarthAdriannhe doesn't go under the table and hasn't since Wal do u watch matches or just say silly things online to look cool?

[@DarthAdriann]

@@thatarmwrestler I never said he went under the table, Are you mentally ok or you just say things online to look cool? The guy is saying the match will look exact like their match in 2017, but that’s not possible since he was under the table there on the match and he can’t do that now

These two are possibly my favourite arm wrestlers rn, but I want Michael to win 😅

[@janindrektamm5233]

Agreed i am rooting for michael to i don't know why people hate his arm wrestling style but i don't see any hate of his kings move

[@emilianodavid7419]

Michael is extremely strong and is very good technically, but I find it a little tedious to see how he stops people with his tendon block. I'm not hating, I'm just expressing what I think.

[@mike7419]

Agreed. I like MMT but his matches can be painful to watch. However I can't fault the guy for adapting his style because of injuries.

[@marcotedeschi5340]

MT "Under the table" he can't pull like all armwrestlers...why? 😂 because help lose,simply

[@Moosefelt]

Michael is extremely under the table.

[@dsm5083]

The fact that he was deep into a losing streak demonstrates that the kings move is beatable.

[@theenlightenedone1283]

kings move is banned in E vs W 😅

[@treedogg]

Not Micheal Todd's. His arm is never at a declining angle in his recent matches

[@bradbutler]

9:16 I thought it was a centimeter? I've never heard inch or inch and a half?

[@PerformanceEnhancingPancakes]

oh you're right I'm thinking diameter

[@bradbutler]

@@PerformanceEnhancingPancakes yeah in diameter you would be correct for sure.👍🏻 but Michael dragging back would only be a centimeter brother.

[@lakyluu]

in what minute of the live broadcast does he say that Micahel would be better than Ermes?

[@wesleyb1458]

Devon has felt both, and noone understands technical arm wrestling better than Devon, so I will take his word for it. MMT and Ermes are both mega

[@e-ton2145]

10:00 didn’t Genadi flop Michael twice and Jerry as well?

[@khabeesschool9919]

Micheal will be stronger for ermes and Micheal is the only who has stopped genadis flop press in recent history

[@e-ton2145]

I just meant he’s not entirely unfloppable like the video claims since he has been flopped by a couple of the best floppers. I do agree Ermes won’t be able to flop him though.

[@dariusjurma4253]

I think Ermes aws around 80-85kg here and also i think the rules here still allowed Michael to go shoulder below table level and that isnt the case now. Ermes should win this, not easy but will win.
