How far armwrestling has declined since the 80s is crazy. Nowadays it takes 15 minutes just to get the setup right and then another 15 after having to go to the straps and subsequent 15mins for each foul.

[@DexterHaven]

Which also means you can't believe how strong the guy who BEAT Cleve twice, in this double elimination tournament, was. And the guy did it with power to spare, two flash pins from the go on Cleve left him stunned and confused. Hint: the guy who beat him hated Cleve's guts. He thought Cleve was a condescending jerk of an armwrestler and vowed to get his revenge and humiliate him in this big-money event where Cleve would bring his A game. And he smashed Cleve as he had hoped.

[@daisy671]

@@DexterHaven I'm semi new to arm wresting history. May I ask who?

[@DexterHaven]

If you look up the real winners of 'Over the Top', you will find his name. Brzenk won the truckers division and got the truck. The winner of the 'pro' division beat Cleve Dean twice and won a cash prize of $10,000, which was a lot of money in 1986. He knew John, and they trained together. He said in training he 'toyed' with John, because he was so much bigger and stronger... His name was Scott Norton.

When armwrestling was normal! Normal people, normal hands, normal rules, normal muscles, normal pulling. Nowadays, armwrestling has *athletes* as competitors, not people. Athletes that eat, sleep and live in the gym! Record breakers ! Nowadays we have desperation move, trash talking, steroids enhancing users, signing contract pullers or pushers (cos' some are pulling on the table, some are pushing their hand). I am in favor of old-classic armwrestling !
