The thing that is scary is he wasn’t using 100% of his power even in 2006 which is considered to be his strongest form. John was still limited by his shoulder. Therefore he could not use that hard side pressure hit of the go. In 2006 his hand and wrist was so superior to everyone else it could cover it up. Imagine if he had a fixed shoulder in 2006 with added side pressure of the go? Holy shit!!!
I can see why John didn't bring his trophies home with him! That thing is just huge! Where in the plane home would he put it? Would it fit in the overhead compartment? Could he put it under the seat in front of him? :D He said he often found a kid who was willing to receive his trophies, but this one is just enormous and perhaps a bit too conspicuous in anyone's home.
he used to get free flight tickets actually , he started working as a airplane engineer so that he could travel for free for armwrestling matches, I doubt he would find no space to fit a trophy in a plane lol
@@bzukala I know about the free tickets. I also know he gave trophies away to children at competitions abroad and binned the ones he already had accumulated by the age of 21 before he got married. I also know he has 0 trophies in his house to this day and has only held on to a few awards, like a belt and the legacy hammer. I've been listening to his MNL chats 😊
This is the best evidence that John beats Levan right? For example I have been called a blind idiot for claiming there is no evidence that Levan can beat prime John? Does this sound right for him to call me that?
@@Penland1234 it's a possibility he has beaten bigger guys like cleve dean , zaur etc and also levan said if anyone pins him he would like it to be john.
@@Penland1234 Man, Levan is from a different era of arm wrestling. With the increasing flow of money, it became more and more lucrative for arm wrestlers to get into PEDs, insane training off the table etc. John hardly ever did that in his career. His skills and strength were developed largely at the table, not in the gym working on specific aspects. Can you imagine John growing his physique much as Levan or Ermes did ? No, there was no real money almost until the mid 2000s. If things were the same, perhaps John could have done something similar and competed with the likes of Levan
John said 2006 is his strongest form..to be spesific,zloty tur 2006 is his strongest..i wonder where john stands against current superheavy with this form
@@angryencyclopediaenginamol4571 Farid just beat beat vitaly and Dmitry in amc tournament this year and John beat him in his prime , how strong was prime john then 🤯
@@aromalsuresh290 yup..and that is past prime version of Farid..and current old john after only 1year of return and not been able to train seriously(because of too many supermatch set) still a bigger threats to most of the elite..
@@aromalsuresh290 i think 2006 john would be on dave chaffe's level today, extremely powerful adn would clear almost everyone but still can't budge some guys on a certain level like ermes, levan and maybe zaur
WOW ... the greatest of all time!!🐐

Not only John was strong but his technicality is way ahead from others.
This was brzenk at his strongest 2005- 2006
I feel he was changing styles at this point, I still think the younger John was the best armwrestler he was much more explosive in his early days.
Thanks for uploading new matches. John is something else - still!
I wonder who had come up with all these kind of trophies? Come on man it’s arm wrestling not a beer drinking contest.
look at that hand.. not sure if any oleg peterenko or irakli can deal with that
You were right. Neither could handle John's hand and has to find other lanes.
@@jayclean5653 what would I not give for that sorta hand 😐
@@plotrecapped6819 You and me both
@@jayclean5653 it's amazing how things turned out for John. The level of today's Armwrestling except the super heavies is either same or lower.

The thing i always liked about john is he always played on top of the table . Not honor to go under the table .
You can see the awe of Ferit after that counter.
Wow Farid just beat vitaly and Dimitry silaev in tournament this year and John beat him in his prime # GOAT
Farid said.. His current form is no way near 2006..it shows that John was on another level that year..
@@moinissen3673 Yes 2006 John was something else .

Локоть у Джона слетел с подушки, так что не считается)))
Да

He beats some, but he cannot touch guys like Levan.
P4P, John is no. 1 strength wise, but some of these super heavies are just too big.
