LEONIDAS ARKONA VS SCHOOLBOY- EAST VS WEST 12 (SUPER HEAVYWEIGHT)

[@denistahirovic7064]

Soo glad Leonidas proved wrong to all the people saying that "he will get killed/doesn't belong to armwrestling event as he's not an armwrestler" and similar. He worked hard and deserves respect, looking forward to seeing him again at EvW or KOTT!

@@pesocaliente5279 yes, he's got more strength on his wrist, bicep, fingers, in general I would say he is stronger at arm wrestling he just lacks endurance

[@pesocaliente5279]

@@amancognite First: Everyone, even the commentators said that Leonidas biceps is "much stronger (... but he can't pull someone like schoolboy just with his biceps"). (one of the strongest biceps in the world). Second: Schoolboy admitted that his riser, pronator are very strong and that leonidas wrist is even stronger than his. ( after the post mach interview he let his brother translate it to leonidas personally.) (u can watch it in leonidas Vlog). Schoolboy is definitely much more technical than leo, super strong and a very good sportsman for praising leonidas after all the trashtalk from schoolboy before the mach. But not stronger ;)
