Wouldn't be close if that manipulation king move wasn't involved.. it is for the weak manipulators who rely on nothing but cheating .. michael Todd also does the same until his opponent is drained from being 1 or 2 inches for the pad forever. This is real facts..
Best match so far, I am one of the people who got surprised because I don't really know him, but as an Asian I'm really proud, this match is probably the toughest Todd fought so far
@@YGVisionP just stfu if you don't know what you're talking about man. Yoshinobu Kanai is just impressive for even being able to stop Todd Hutchings, especially after not participating in the sport for quite a while and the fact that Todd is one if not the most dominant puller in 105 kg category. Almost nobody else has held on like Yoshinobu Kanai did.
sportsman like......... Don't get me wrong I love this match and both pullers but yoshi was scummy AF, count how many times he tries to push todd off the back of the pad hoping it won't be noticed. Now don't get me wrong and think i'm against it, just be honest about it at the least. Don't go into comments and selectively shit pin pullers for how they pull then praise others for doing the same thing.
@@Average1212 I also noticed that, but personally what annoys me is the antics and the humiliation of the opponent. Yoshi was tricky, at some point Todd also tried the same, but the respect was evident and I think that's what resonates with many people
This is the BEST match, both players are great. Sportsmanlike but fierce, exciting and fun. No trashtalking, No BS, unlike the annoying bully Devon match.
Definitely the best match of the event. Pure old-school arm wrestling no complaining or whining about setups, no yelling, and so on. Just two world class athletes going at it and respecting each other, as it should be. Yoshi proved that he still has it after all these years.
@@MasDouc a simple Google search tells me often it has a sexual annotation to it, but not in all cases. It seems you dont fully grasp the multi meaning of this word. Have a good one tho :)
Yoshi is a beast. He was an absolute nightmare in his youth and has great tendon strength. Glad he got to showcase it on this platform. Uncle Todd always picks great pullers to test himself against
If yoshi ain’t considered young then he’s off to retire Todd is a grandpa next to him what you saying bro? If anything yoshi still on his prime He can still bounce If he was a beast then he can still be a beast now He’s still young my brother
Если ты уже любитель армрестлинга, то это правда. Но то что делает Ларрат помогает привлечь публику, незнакомую со спортом. Красоту этого матча оценят фанаты армрестлинга, но обычному человеку, который до этого не интересовался армрестлингом, будет скучно.
@@黄金の風ツェペリ I'm not even a Japenese. I'm a Korean but it's so impressive and epic to see that we have a fellow Asian arm wrestler out there competing in world level. Arm wrestling isn't so big in East Asia. And Yoshi is like a pearl in a mud . Although Yoshi lost here, he put up a damn good fight against Todd. And Todd is a guy who nearly pinned Devon Larratt in his prime. This really is somthing to see. Big respect to Yoshi.
@@zombrofitness bro there are a lot of things in the world for entertainment.if u r looking for trash talking there are alot of other sports . Trash talking in arm wrestling make it look ugly .It is fun to watch the fight but with respect btwn athletes.
It was definitely one of the best but I'm guessing you never saw the match between Michael Todd & Jerry Cadorette; that was such an insane battle of endurance, I don't think I've ever seen a longer match.
@@CantThinkOfAHandleSoItsThis I said most competitive card, not single match. And yes, I’m guessing you didn’t know there were actually two matches between them in WAL. Jerry won the 1st 3-1 and MT broke some bones his hand, then MT came back and controversially won 3-2 in the last WAL match ever
Тем кто не знаком с армрестлингом интереснее будет посмотреть на Ларрата, для них этот матч будет непонятным и скучным. Но потом некоторые из них втянутся и им будет интересно смотреть такие зарубы. Так Ларрат увеличивает фанбазу арма.
What a match! Couldn't be happier for Yoshinobu and him getting to prove himself to the world against one of the best in the division. He definitely etched his name in the rankings after that performance.. hope to see him dismantle the other top arm wrestlers
Thank you for the great game. Kanai, it has been seven years since he last played, but we would like to thank him for the moving game. I will try my best to become more like you.
UA-cam algorithm boosting comment 💪 ... YOSHI is back!! i wanted Toddzilla to win, thought he would, BUT didn't think Yoshi would've put up this kinda battle! and i am SO happy he did! now i wanna see more matches with Yoshi too!
Funny how most people had underestimated Kanai while Travis and Neil both showed him quite a bit of respect prior to the match because they knew how good he was back in the days.
What an outstanding match! Two world-class, similarly gifted athletes giving it all on the table, I like all types of matches but I must admit this was one the most amazing ones I've seen, I really liked the flow of it, how it was posible to just go from foul to setup without even needing to remove the band, I liked how respectful they were to each other and the referees yet how intense they were when pulling. What a match!
I have seen some matches but not the whole card. But man, this is the best so far. By a good margin. No delays in the setup, no commenting about the setup, just a pure battle from start to finish. And jez, is Yoshi impressive! Haven´t seen him at all before but if he continues pulling he could really be a force in the division. Great match! And just love that Yoshi is smiling and shouting throughout!
@@John3.36 He was when he beat MMT. Thing is he's lost his last couple of matches and he's such a warrior he can't stand to loose. I think he's in training waiting to come back in top shape.
The heart of that Japanese warrior was amazing to see. It was the best match I've seen in a while. Congrats to both of them. Todd deserves the next title shot 100%.
Interview in Japan, Yoshi told he wanted to win by defeating Todd rather than with an elbow fall at the end, but Todd was too strong for him to compete.
Goodd makes me crying when those men collide and fighting till the last of their breath with smiling and hugging at the end. What a match, Yoshii just a monster really badasss. Respect those legend
Now this is a match that cherishes armwrestling itself!!! No BS, no trashtalk ALL ACTION and good sportsmanship! heck even the referees are enjoying themselves look at this, this is what the sport needs more of!!!! Not toxic mindgames and stupid vendettas good athletes with grit and fighting spirit giving it all and may the best wins! This is the way to get armwrestling properly on the spotlight of competitive sports!
Unfortunately armwrestling has always had matches and athletes like this and it hasnt gained much spotlight or popularity. But if "boring"' and "normal" means less popularity, is popularity really THAT important?

Todd is just awesome 👏🏽 unbelievable of course his opponent showed great heart

Blew me away, you are correct , everyone was underestimating Kanai, dude is on the map now.
@bronzethunderbeard1572 great at manipulating lesser minds.
watching Kanai having such a come back , I jizzed my pants !
There's no armwrestler more respectful and humble than Todd, he deserves every good thing coming his way

Super impressive for Yoshi to come back at such a high level and nearly win, respect to both guys
Such a shame that this Japanese guy is not so popular and wasn't invited sooner. Great match guys. Samurai Vs cowboy.
Yoshi is a legend he took a long break from competition but has come back in spectacular fashion
He had been invited before, but had declined due to injury.
you crazy. yoshi is wildly popular when he is active. he took a long break due to injury.
He had a long history with Prime John Brzenk. Old school arm-wrestling fans definitely know who he is

One of the best matches I've ever seen

Unfortunately armwrestling has always had matches and athletes like this and it hasnt gained much spotlight or popularity. But if "boring"' and "normal" means less popularity, is popularity really THAT important?
