      Trying to figure out why Ermes is the favorite anyways.
      Let’s see what he has done the past few years.
      Beats matt mask, although he actually dropped a round to him. SAD.
      Beats genadi in genadis comeback match after 3 years and wrist surgery (ended up dropping a few rounds later because he was tired and faked and injury that was never spoken of again).
      Gets 6-0d by Alex Kurdecha.
      Beats arif…(not exactly impressive or a top guy)
      Beats Chaffee after he had a war with vitaly and clearly wasn’t 100%. Not an easy win either. Struggled round one and should have been pinned.
      Then crushed by levan essentially 4-0. Only in the match after he already lost because of 50,000 restarts.
      Starting to wonder why he’s even rated so high?

    I hope everyone will take the time to recognize what a great champion levan is on top of being a very classy and chill dude. I feel like sometimes he doesn't get the love he deserves due to being so dominant and a leviathan of a man. Everyone loves the underdog or to see the david slay Goliath but levan is different. He doesn't play games, is super psyched when in battle on the table and very kind with his words about other pullers. Levan can take pride in the fact he's dominating the sport at a point when its leveled up.

  • @salvocampoli
    @salvocampoli Рік тому +1

    Good answer 😊 Only 1 answer is wrong for me and the answer is the 51/49 in favor of Devon vs Ermes. I think that Ermes is too much stronger Devon has only 1 way to win and hs controlling the hand or Ermes, but i think he can't. And Devon has lost 2 months.ago vs Genadj, Ermes has crushed Genade. So Devon has 10% chance to win and the later the match the bigger the gap will be because Ermes is 29 years old and Devon is 48, Ermes increases his strength. every month, in 10 months he went from 82kg back pressure to 92kg, he grew 11% in 10 months O.o. Devon at best can grow another 2 to 3% over the next 2 to 3 years. You understand. that the more time passes, the harder the punishment will be...

      @@hyperos8811 Ermes gve to Levan more than a good match, never happened to see Levan in such great difficulty since he became a giant mutant (so, 6 years ago). At most we saw Levan struggling a bit in the first round with Vitaly, (the only one besides Ermes to make him sweat), but after the first round Vitaly was destroyed. instead Ermes fought ferociously for all rounds, even forcing him to retire, (otherwise Levan would have been beaten in 2 rounds). Last thing: the one who faced Ermes was the strongest aemwresrler ever and the biggest Levan ever, he was bigger and stronger than the one faced by Devon. I think Levan knows that Ermes is the absolute strongest opponent, but he used a strategy to lower his confidence 😉

      @hyperos8811 take it easy man. Levan is Levan, I don't think Ermes can defeat the Georgian right now, he needs time. The Levan man is a monster, his hand and wrist are the problem for Ermes, it's not a matter of arm strength but of hand and wrist. But now Ermes has enough time, Levan is injured and when he goes back to armwrestling he won't immediately start fighting against the strongest one, (like Ermes and stuff like that), so Ermes has all the time 😀

    Rather be 100% faster or 1% stronger?
    i feel like they'd still answer 1% stronger

    Funny how you asked everybody the 'the greatest of all times' question, but only with Levan, you had to add 'not including yourself' 😅

    At 380 pounds, Levan looks almost athletic!
