Marcio's experience show here. His adjustment throughout the match is really impressive

[@Enzo505]

Would like to see him go Irakli again.

[@CalvinHikes]

And his elbow hops.

[@tmartinez9065]

I have always believed this dude would make number 1 one day.

[@jarreldrakeabugan7937]

loved them transitions

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

@@Enzo505 yeah, he looks much bigger today.

[@User-b9q2z]

What a match. Really impresive from both of them. Pavlo curling marcio back into a hook from having his wrist taken was crazy, and Marcios transitions were awesome too

[@kane2440]

ref kept pavlo in the match

[@3enjamin]

Pavlo looks stronger here in power but seems he still wasn't willing to explore different approaches during the match, he committed to his inside move, hook. And it worked well for him in a few rounds, but Marcio didn't give up and tried all the different maneuver. Pavlo didn't seem to have any counter to that or at least try to slip during those later rounds, it happened twice. Awesome match from both anyway.

[@Dmgolfer22]

Pavlo didn’t curl him in. Marcio realized he wasn’t getting the toproll and he curled in with Pavlo.

[@hou942]

@@kane2440 Explain, be specific, you're apparently an expert so I'm curious

[@chronokoks]

with tons of fauls.. his elbow left the pad numerous times... shitty refs

[@ordahnumbah2063]

Whoever they hired to film this… they need their pay doubled. And everyone was so high energy. Aussie did a fantastic job as always. Just, wow. Best first event I’ve seen.

[@toddzillaswrist]

Agreed, absolutely top notch production!

[@msdweldingfabrication7051]

Audio sucks though you don't hear that annoying ass static in the background?

[@0verfiend]

Are you kidding? The audio is atrocious. Not even acceptable.

[@AussieArmWrestler]

One of the best matches of the year - was amazing to call to the action

[@OrcaStree]

​@@makddee7678Maybe because he's so meaty? Lmao

[@wristwrestling]

​​@@makddee7678he is brazilian in ethnicity and looks like an overstuffed sausage. It is right on the money dude, what are you smoking?

[@Siberius-]

@@makddee7678 - I forget the context, but I think TheWalkingRed's explanation is likely correct, which does make sense. Jake is also Australian, so you can expect a sausage reference or two.

[@SmartMenTopRoll]

So stoked to see Marcio pull, dude brings the intensity and that flawless inside to outside game

[@AussieArmWrestler]

Genuine good dude as well

[@LukeWeber-gw6ej]

Man stands on the table and then says wants revenge on Irakli. That's wild. 💪Marcio is underrated af. Ongarbaev vs Marcio would be interesting as well.

[@georgepoly4842]

Stylistically it’ll be hard for Marcio because I’m not sure he can match Irakli outside and i don’t remember the last time anyone forced irakli inside. But we’ll see

[@3enjamin]

@@georgepoly4842 Agree, they'll probably go to strap, Irakli doesn't hold on like Pavlo and their slip apparently unavoidable. But very glad to see Marcio comes back and get his first victory in this return. Amazing.

[@Dmgolfer22]

@@georgepoly4842 healthy Marcio smacks Irakli. Marcio and Hutchings have always been neck and neck. Marcio couldn’t train for the 5 weeks leading up to Irakli due to injury. Said himself he normally wouldn’t have accepted a match in that situation but couldn’t refuse the offer.

[@caohaithanh1134]

​@@georgepoly4842hmmm someone much lighter than him name Sasho....

[@3enjamin]

@@Dmgolfer22 I think Toddzilla evolved beyond Marcio nowadays. Marcio's healthy day, he's on par with Krasimir, and Krasimir got smashed by Irakli as well. But one can say even Krasimir is also in the descreasing phase years lately. Hard to know until they pull again. Just Todd getting stronger than his WAL days for sure, Marcio is still somewhat reaching that shape again or in similar shape at most.

[@jayclean5653]

Really just shows the experience and technical ability of Marcio. The guy is a legend of this sport for a reason. Big respect to Pavlo. Awesome guy.

[@redkryptonite6]

Insane horsepower from these two. Incredible match. Love the callouts from Marcio. His energy is the best.

[@Jhutchison1992]

its so good to see marcio compete. love his passion

[@TheHighFiveAW]

Couldn’t agree more. Thank you for the support!! More to come, Jan 6th!!

[@saltedllama2759]

Incredible effort from both guys, and to see Marcio literally improve before our eyes as an armwrestler in the face of adversity. Welcome back, Marcio!

[@BorkChopGaming]

This was ELECTRIC. Great production, AMAZING MATCH, awesome commentary. Most definitely gonna pick up the next PPV. Keep the great matches coming!

[@valitsemllaluokanavahyvaks3556]

Good to see Marcio back in the mix with a solid win.

[@constipateddevon]

Love marcio. He’s still in the mix. I want to see marcio vs sandris

[@borissibor2638]

That would be interesting. I think Marcio would over power him though.

[@constipateddevon]

@@borissibor2638 that and also marcio’s experience is very very high level.

[@75_86]

Good match. Slight edge to Sandris

[@Shiva1234-y4w]

It will be a war, close match

[@gustavogustavo7262]

very nice, thanks folks for show

[@constipateddevon]

This quality is great. Love this style.

[@mar__k]

So happy for Marcio! He's a real OG!

[@tomoekimsan8182]

Love the female reff❤

[@17aladdin]

Marcio was brilliant, that transitions was perfect.

[@michaelworkspace]

What a great match!! Congrats Marcio! Great effort Pavlo 🔥 🔥

[@cakerape]

Its crazy to think how long we've been watching marcio....always liked watching him

[@CalvinHikes]

Without running fouls, modern arm wrestling is really missing something.

[@FlintBeastgood]

Whoa! Definitely one of the fiercest fights I've seen this year. Incredible pulling from Marcio. Lots of new promotions popping up. This was very well recorded and presented. Very well done for a first show. 💪👍

[@johnaugustin5447]

Awesome match! Regardless of where these guys were born, Marcio and Pavlo are national treasures 💪🇺🇸💪

[@thinkbeforyouvote]

Very good match. Pretty good production. Great to see more and more competitive arm wrestling matches being put together.

[@alvarovaldivia7322]

Awesome event. Keep going!

[@delore1770]

Easily one of the best matches of all time.❤ Gave me ron bath vs zurab vibes or chaffee vs vitaly THESE WERE SO GOOD.

[@johnnystanley4469]

Hell of a match Marcio congrats well faught, God bless you and family

[@TheHighFiveAW]

Couldn’t agree more. Thank you for the support!! More to come, Jan 6th!!

[@johns8057]

Awesome match, need more knuckles up events

[@DropkickNation]

Marcios second pin was just brilliance. Switching from the inside shoulder press to the toproll to run over Pavlo was epic stuff.

[@danielvibe7139]

Wow. Seriously good and entertaining match

[@joed.4038]

Definitely the pancakes are in abundance at Marco's house! Great win, enjoyed watching it. Congrats!

[@mathieucomtois348]

What an incredible match ! 🤯

[@ellishamelendez6617]

[@Steelers1933]

That. Was. Awesome!!!!!!!!

[@DforDelinquent]

Very enjoyable match! 👊

[@ten4257]

Incredible match!

[@darylloth3237]

I'm a big fan of both of these pullers. Both incredible athletes and sportsmen. Marcio is looking the biggest I have ever seen him. Very impressive match.

[@nighthawk0077]

Pavlo is slowly getting better and more technical with each match. Rematch vs. Sabin next.

[@arhael3594]

More technical? All he did is hook the whole match. It was Barbosa who displayed technique and versatility.

[@djo-dji6018]

​@@arhael3594 Do you even know who's Marcio Barbosa? He has shown his skills for more than two decades.

[@arhael3594]

@@djo-dji6018 I was talking about Pavlo and pointed out that it was Barboza showing skill, so not sure what you are arguing about.

[@44percentstronger]

That was a fantastic performance from The Phenom. It looks like he is in good shape, so I hope we can see him soon on the table. 27:16 Also Irakli Zirakashvili was really strong last time they pulled, but Irakli Saginashvili would to much to handle for Marcio 😂

[@Joshonndat10x]

not tooo much to handle, he wants him next and next time irkali= getting clapped

[@limo-swine6537]

Irakli Zirakashvili can be defeated by only a few people but Irakli Saginashvili is untouchable by even Levan.

[@gilgamesh2832]

Marcio Irakli rematch would be HYPE!!!

[@soakedbearrd]

Both really good dudes. Happy for Marcio.

[@ChrisJones-vt2rz]

Good to see Marcio on a table after so long let’s go

[@tokesalotta1521]

A second or two before Marcio's elbow foul, you can clearly see Pavlo's elbow come off of the pad. Then, when Pavlo was about to lose, his elbow barely came of, and she calls it to save him from the pin

[@Rondigity92]

Marcio with the can opener in rd 3 was amazing

[@Patrick-lx4gy]

That was awesome match with Marcio and Pavlo.

[@Siberius-]

That was incredible. Didn't realise this event took place until now over a month later. Can't wait to see more of Marcio.

[@B-TNT]

I really enjoyed that match!

[@Mitsunari4Gunz]

Always great to see you come back when everyone counts you out.

[@borissibor2638]

Great triceps press by Pablo in round 2

[@Whitehead1945]

Wow nice Match ! I will buy the PPV next time ,If PayPal is available.

Great battle.

[@2011persol]

i really liked this, as im a Marcio fan, its impressive tht he is BACK and in great shape.....super, even tough he is not in the absolute top elite, he sure is a force tht noone should underestimate, after all he have wrestled LARRAT and beaten him on occasions if i remember correctly...

Dude Marcio's arms look like steel. Glad to see this matchup; keep up the great matches.

[@HandelandJ]

Awesome match!!! Marcio looks strong af - and he pulled super smart as well. He also looks huge!!! Can’t wait to see who he pulls next. I’d like to see him vs Sandris maybe (looking at Pavlo vs Sandris, and then this match, that’d be really close)

[@arthurbarbosa8178]

nice, Barboza is awesome

First event from these guys and the production is already better than East vs West or King of the Table.

[@gertpedersen3729]

Just love marcio's energy💪

[@SpontaneityJD]

The audio in these promotions is really poor (thankfully EvW only recently improved this). It's hard to watch hearing the announcers screaming and clipping the audio. It's really not rocket science to put a limiter on the audio. This was an amazing match -- it deserves better production.

[@rosco_174]

awesome quality 💪 hat's off to the guys it was crazy

[@Kamil_Jablonski]

It was amazing to watch live 🤩🔥💪
