      I wouldn say so, Zloty Tur was every year most waited competition and it pushed level high consistently. When armwrestling started to move more to supermatsh format then we started to have little issues but nothing major imo. Zloty Tur,Pal in evropa and in usa, Top-8...he was pioneer + he standardized armwrestlign tables what we all still use today.

      Dude, think about it.. Jake (Aussie) isn’t exactly on Engin’s camp but he gets interviews with top athletes.. he’s not cribbing.. Paul Italia actually disrespected Engin. EvW is not an elected government to act like everyone has an equal say in it.. Engin runs the show.. Sometimes he gets to employ his discretion for what he believes is not in the larger interest of the sport.. Period.

    05:35 He had all that power for so many years and did very little to bring the best athletes from all over the world to one stage. On the other hand, Engin has created the best thing Armwreslting fans have ever seen within just 3 short years.

      Thanks not true, Mazurenko started from nothing 24 years ago when this sport was at it baby steps. He organized Zloty Tur that was world most prestigious turnament until korona forced all down. Top-8 was legit and tables we all use today are thanks to Mazurenko, its his legacy that is way too often overlooked.

Armwrestling got bigger over the years and this really started booming during korona whitch served East vs West wery well and im happy it did.

Armwrestling was mostly about turnaments during Igors reign of power and he focused on those + amerikans started wal with its restricting contracts.

    You don’t get it do you? Why should elite pullers pull in low tier comps and get paid less than half of what they make in EvW? And also pro comps should be a gateopener to the elite level. The elites have no business pulling pros. Why can’t you guys just be grateful of Engin’s work of getting all elite pullers on the same place for once? You get super high level matches every month for a price that should be alot more expensive for the quality we see. Igor split the sport and hindered the best athletes to compete against the west. Don’t even compare the two.

    I've been very vocal about the contract thing is a bad idear. We keep missing out on great matches by tying down the athletes to one promotion. That's definitely not gonna grow the sport. And now banning the athletes from even just a interview on other podcast definitely won't grow the sport either. I'm not hating on Engin but I do disagree with the banning and contracts. Seems to me the pullers can make more money if they not tied down to one promotion. We just went thru this before COVID and already going right back down the same path except now banning pullers from podcast too. Guess where it's just a different part of the world and they ain't known for having the most freedom over there. But I don't really know all the details about the bans and who all is involved so I never speak much about it

It’s very normal for athletes competing in an upcoming event to not go on random peoples podcast in the lead up. The organization gets to determine what channels their contracted athletes get to be on in the lead up of competition for promotional purposes.

    Wac is to unstable most will stay with engin. The reason why there is contracts the athletes are your investment . Anywhere you go ufc wwe they all have them. The guys paying good money not 1 or 2 k like other jokers . Christ awe there top prize was 500$😅 i wouldnt set my snooze for that christ a guy would lose money to compete by the time you pay flights hotels ect. Not even 2k or 5 k is enough when your talking a level that high. Let the ametures play and let the big leagues roll. The big leagues like east vs west is where the money is at. If engin was smart he would get a bigger building and sell live seats. Thats coming i bet. I heard the top guys took well over 40k 4or 5 events back the prize now is even more. Egor dont pay shit pay is king. You going to go by egor for shit pay or go were the bread is. East vs west will be the ruler for a long time. Sponsors egor had bring 50 to 100k total east vs west off ppv probably bring 8 times that . These guys are far wrong. Chael sonnen dumped major publicity for larratt thats massive.
