Ray & Janis Discuss King of The Table 13

[@MobaCry]

Janis misunderstood match of the night... Match of the night is basically the most entertaining match the one that made the public react the most, the one that got everybody on fire.... And there is no question about it... Eddie Hall and Brian shaw were match of the night and I would say one of the best match ever... It was absolutely amazing to watch... The tension, the trashtalk, the back and forth... Just GREAT!!

[@Phenomatron]

two legends of another insane strength sport entering ur sport that are also friends but super competitive lol like it certainly was the most hype

[@Perinio-inlove]

Maybe you misunderstood what Is a sport. This Is not a show , we dont want people Who act like Kids Just because you Need tò be entretained... If you want tò be entretained go tò a circus. This Is a serious sport not the circus

[@DoctorStrange01]

​@Perinio-inlove watch WAF, it's for the "serious" 😂

​@Perinio-inlove😂😂 the past is gone brother... Haven't you watched Idiocracy? People want entertainment not the truth. 🙋🏻‍♂️

And Brian Shaw’s hand cooler.

[@mikeg1032]

There were people there specifically to see eddie and brian pull. They knew nothing of arm wrestling just fan's of them two! This sport is growing!!

[@Vxneji]

Were there really tho? U met them in person?

[@FlintBeastgood]

Is it possible to increase the volume of your videos in post? If you compare them to any other channel (or just the adverts - this is a good indicator) they are very low.

[@ajedrez914]

What Brian needs is a personal arm wrestling trainer who will train him every day for several months until he becomes proficient and can train on his own.

[@SDSen]

Rustam is something special, he's a living legend in our sport, his pec seems to have healed completely since his last match with Paul Linn where it was 80% recovered it was a risk he took then but he felt confident enough and won without getting injured further, now with good health and recovery he's gonna be a handful for a alot of people

[@deeeeeeps]

Go through the match with video and show why you don't think Brian was an arm wrestler. Because I think he did a great job.

[@LurkerBelow-uh7fo]

Ray has been overly harsh and hyperbolic of Brian from the start. It's a bit silly. He didn't "just go side", he fought for the highground and regripped multiple times and toprolled. Yes it wasn't pretty like a pro would be and he moves awkwardly but he's huge, and he has one foot off the platform one foot on because he can't fit. Cleave Dean moved kinda weirdly because of his size too, and he was a beast. He just needs a real coach drilling the movements with him, like Neil did with Eddie and he'll look a lot better. And a bigger platform so he can actually stand on it.

[@deeeeeeps]

@@LurkerBelow-uh7fo I agree. I have no idea why they don't like Brian. Jealous of his size? lol

[@floppyboyo]

It does not need to be technical to be fun to watch. It couldnt have been technical considering who it was. It was fun to watch becuase of their future.

[@youtubeconnollyfamily]

Brian literally got that W from just using pure strength when he learns technique and gets better at it. It’s terrifying to think how good he will be. Levan said he needs one year because he already has the attributes to be the best and if he focuses full-time on one year training, he could get up there for sure.

[@ajedrez914]

What Brian needs is a personal arm wrestling trainer who will train him every day for several months until he becomes proficient and can train on his own.

[@jax9574]

He needs about 6 years of intense training and nothing else to even be considered

[@rancidmarmot1994]

​@jax9574 To be what? He could be in the top 10 in 2 to 3 yrs. If you're talking about facing Levan, then yeah probably 5 to 6 years. I love how many are under estimating him though it's good motivation. He has better genetics than anyone in the sport currently which should translate to a incredibly high ceiling.

[@flavion1259]

I really liked your analysis of these matches but try to make your students understand that there are different levels of strength and that if you don't reach them, the technique won't do anything unless you are at the same level of strength in all the vectors (rise, pronation, cup, back pressure, side pressure, hook). There are tables that determine your strength level based on the lift you do in these vectors, I'll give you an example of one vector : Side Pressure, well this is what the table below lists: Up to 22.67 kg the level is defined as Weak. Up to 29.48 kg the level is defined as Typical Amateur. Up to 36.28 kg the level is Pro. Up to 45.35 kg the level is Strong Pro. Up to 54.43 kg the level is Nationally. Up to 58.96 kg the level is Elite Nationally. Up to 63.50 Kg. the level is World Weight class. Higher than > 68.03 Kg. the level is World Open Class. Now in light of all this I believe that technique has its importance but I put it as a percentage of 30% the remaining 70% depends on the strength acquired in all the vectors mentioned above, in the case mentioned the (Side Pressure) if there is a substantial difference in terms of Kg. lifted it is clear that technique will never be able to make the difference and this also applies to all the other vectors.

[@GTIngold]

I put it more 60% strength 40% technique. Some moves are built to beat other vectors. If someone is just straight strong in only just strength, a more technical puller could make a 3 zero no problem by beating the vector. I agree with all the rest. Just the technique can obliterate stre ngth.

[@lsb2623]

There are always 2 guys in a story watching the main show and hanging out with a commentary. You two are that to me in this. You are THE guys chewing the fat of this tale. You damn Shakespearean armwrestlers! Love the commentary.

Palko vs Meranto was my favorite match of the event. One of those matches that reminds me why i love the sport

My favorite part was 'we don't need a strap - we don't need a strap''. Sorry, but i was like 'yesss!'

[@rickiovine2170]

Was Brian and Eddie Match of the Night? Well, I only watched Brian and Eddie, and, had little interest in the others. I am sorry for that but tens of thousands of the first time fans think the same way, I’m sure. And, I loved the match. Now, I am anxious to see the professionals. If Brian or Eddie did not put on such a great show the sport loses a half million potential fans.

[@WillPLZ]

I'm a lifelong fan of both strongman and armwrestling. I see the potential new fans and I love it. I'm a fan of Brian Shaw and I love to see him catch the armwrestling bug. Armwrestling is a different type of feat of strength, but still easily among the best to watch. I hope that Brian can someday be on the short list of world's best pullers, but as of now his inexperience would get exploited. His armwrestling journey is only forward from here, as far as he takes it. And welcome to armwrestling. Good channel to land on. Ray and Janis are both great ambassadors of the sport. Janis is a bit of legend himself. ;)

[@RideWithJosh696]

Much more than half a million, especially over time. Id like to see how the pay per view faired with the other top showings in the past. I bet it's at least double.

You guys need to teach Brian to grab opponents hand and put him down. Raw power.

What a monster Rustam is.

[@nickdowe4887]

Jocelyn Brisson is a super strong female arm wrestler. I could see her being a good match for Barbora.

[@chrisottenstroer7202]

It sounds like Brian and Eddie did have some benefit as more eyes were on the sport. Personally as an arm wrestling fan, I thought it was a bit silly with way too much talking after the match. I also thought that it distracted from Levan and Jerry match.

[@Haze4474]

They give arm wrestling more attention by just being there which is a good thing God forbid the arm wrestling gives attention back to them. I think it's a one time kinda thing, I would agree, it would be annoying If they do it every time though

[@claudiocapasso6306]

The fact that Brian and Eddie went after the women title match left a bad taste in my mouth. It means that who held the event values spectacle over armwrestling. It was definitely a more entertaining and anticipated match but still

[@80-80.]

To put it in perspective, I'm pretty sure neither of these two guys would have beaten Brian in a real match despite his lack of experience. I think Brian isn't that far off schoolboy, better in straps, but he probably wouldn't have been able to slip.

Janis stay being a hater, when you’ve been doing something for so long but not as popular as the new kids, jealousy tends to seep into the heart

[@jsquaredccc]

The rest of the card was entertains but no where near the entertainment of the Eddie hall be Brian Shaw match, people will remember that match for ever but only the hard cores of arm wrestling will be aware of Janis

[@rollinupeverest5042]

I don't really know what you mean he just tells you if it was a good match or not Entertaining doesn't mean it's a good match

[@seismic6402]

Of course all eyes were on the match between the famous strongmen. However, I have to admit that I just didn't see the potential in Brian that Devon claims. Yes, he is strong, but we have seen Eddie take him apart in the strap, so it seems his hand can be nullified, at least at the moment.

[@CarlySB]

I think it was terrible. It was just a match of raw strength in a fashion that was a little bit like armwrestling. In an exciting match, they try to take maximum advantage and try differerent strategies; the only strategy in that one was brute force. It was boring, and I am not entirely sure it wasn't scripted.

[@RoverAlvaresfariolen]

[@bt2476]

Yeah I disagree with Janis all the way. Eddie Hall vs Brian Shaw was THE match of the night, no doubt about it. The only match that truly brought personality and excitement to an otherwise "ho-hum" night of armwrestling matches that weren't that exciting. But yes as far as professional importance, obviously the heavyweight men and women matches are most important. But Levan vs Jerry was boring, a no contest. And similar with Barbora and Gabby, they failed to entertain in that same way

[@Maestro_Hulk]

I think these little people have some insecurities about strength, Eddie vs Brian was the most unexpected war of the night you can't just underrate it because of their technique and inexperience 😄😍. When little guys have a war it's so boring because they are so weak.

Not that entertained watching amateurs. I watch sports to watch the best at the sport. Eddie trash talk was fun though.
