In 2013, Oleg Zhokh defeated John Brzenk at the UAL and even pinned Devon Larratt. At the PAL in 2016, he won cleanly against Vitali Laletin. In 2017, he pinned Levan Saginashvili in a training match and was at his peak. However, in 2018, he suffered a tragic car accident in which both his father and his mentor Andriy Pushkar lost their lives, and he broke his arms multiple times. Doctors said he would never arm wrestle again, but that didn’t stop Oleg. Still, you can see just how much weaker he has become.

Im sure if he went down to his own weight class he'd dominate. Glad to see him back on a big stage, and still wrestling well above his weight class.

[@farmazoIin]

The judging at this event was not very good. Betkili was constantly turning on his shoulder before the start, while Oleg was leveled. In any case, a good match for Oleg, since Betkili is now at his peak.

[@Despond]

Yeah, the refereeing was below average.

[@garygary7376]

For all of you wondering how could Oleg lose, guys, he barely managed to survive the car accident back in 2018 and was in a coma, he also had a brain damage and was barely able to move after he regained consciousness... It is truly a miracle that he was able to come back as a top level athlete after all that he has been through. On a side note, there is no way that Onisni's forearm is bigger, the measurements must be wrong 😅. However, Oleg is and in fact always was mainly forearm. It is clear that you need the other tools as well, like the frame, back n side pressure and the weight plays a big role here. Anyway, congrats to the champ, he is s great armwrestler. About Oleg, he has nothing to prove. Glad to see him healthy and back on the biggest stage once again!

[@deaf8236]

І Олег тепер не може пронувати передпліччя. У нього так зрослись кістки, що його рука завжди частково супінована, а це - велика перевага для суперника.

it's probably the fastest growing niche sport (with actual fans. people mostly watched powerslap cause of its absurdity)

[@JonHop1]

@@yofukashidayo AW is a joke... AW today is pretty much WWF with 100x less content. Who the heck wants to watch 30 mins of setup nonsense and 2 mins of actual arm wrestling? Devon and Engin are trying to turn AW into WWE for profit. This is Devon's second attempt at a scripted Arm Wrestling Org... When WAL failed and got exposed by Mike Ayello, they swept that under the rug and Devon partnered with Engin behind the scenes to create this garbage. This kinda AW def has a limit to the popularity it can get even with them them marketing the crap out of it with all this female drama.
