@@Rahul2000gLevan has said that he will not arm wrestle Jon cause it wouldn’t be fair as Levan is way bigger than Jon and Jon is 60 years old but regardless. Jon is the goat of arm wrestling and every professional arm wrestler including Levan, Devon, Ermes, Engin, Matt Mask, Oleg, Prudnik, Vitaly, Ron Bath, Travis Bagent, Jerry C., Denis C., Toddzilla, Michael Todd, etc etc etc will tell you this and has said this on multiple occasions because no one has even come close to dominating arm wrestling for as long as Jon (20+ years). Jon is the man who brought arm wrestling to the world. I mean Jon had one of the biggest Oscar winning action stars of the world make a movie about him. He is the greatest of all time.

It is sad we have so little footage from John's golden years when he was #1 in the world as a 95kg puller. There is of course the Pulling John documentary, and a few matches on youtube, but no coverage like we have today around guys like Devon and Levan, where almost every practice pull ends up on youtube. I really wish John had documented his matches and even practices more thoroughly around his golden years +-2005, because it is hard to actually believe people that John is the true goat when the actual footage of John beating 300+lbs monsters is not available any more. You can find his losses more easily than his wins (like the 2008 loss vs Devon or the famous losses vs Voevoda or Denis).

Well, it's good that people recognise how good Jon was. But we have to realise that sports evolve and arm wrestling is no exception. Today's top 5 fighters could easily beat the best Brzenk ever. Still, kudos to him for doing what he did when the sport was still new.
@nvmffs Жыл бұрын
Watch out, Brzenk fangirls will tear you apart if they catch a glimpse of this comment. You can't say such truths, people can't handle it. They keep talking about him being the GOAT but he was the GOAT of his time, he can't be the GOAT of the future. There was very little competition back in his time. Now the competition is crazy and everything needs to be on point if you want to become a champion unlike back in the 80s when most of the armwrestlers were chuggin beers all day long.
