longwinded way to say John gave up everything except backpressure and pronation. John's timing has always been great, his transitions to the press between surges was perfect.
Great analysis. Not sure I'd call it an ugly match. It was one of the most martial that i've seen, in the sense of using many different moves to achieve an outcome. I'd like to hear your analysis of the other two rounds. John gripped low in the 2nd round, kinda dad's moving Leo. That was incredible.
Leonidas Coach Kevin Wolf released a video talking about the match. They did not train press at all leading up to the event. They decided to focus on his strenght.
"Broke back flop roll" is a pretty wild way to call that move 😂. "The king's flop" would've described that move well in a less "2 guys in a tent" sounding way, but both are good. We should start a poll here to see which should be officially used, "Broke back flop roll" or "The King's flop", vote in the comments 👇
If you're well balanced in all of the tools, you first want to try to Supinate (turning the palm upward) to keep the flop-pressers hand flat and sweep to the side. That's usually the easiest way, however, if you can't do that, try and contain (cup/wrist curl) the flop-presser's pronator (try getting your pinky on your opponent's wrist) and fight with side pressure to maintain center as much as you can. If those two still don't work, try to either counter shoulder roll/press, low hand top roll (make sure he doesn't grip your pronator, as in don't let his hand get contact on your wrist bone), or if all of that still fails, if you have a king's move, go for that, but prepared for a very long ride :)
The guy is 60 and still a threat to some very powerful guys. Cut him some slack for not being a dominant 40 year old. Be thankful that the man is still competing.
Yeah but you're repeating the same thing many people comment like a million times in a roll. I think people get the point. Your comment comes out as negative because it doesnt talk about positive things about the match. @@SDSen
Nothing better than to watch a specialist do what he does best.
Round 2 is perfection
reading position change is what makes u a good armwreslerslerselrsler
Being ABLE to adjust according to position changes is what makes you a good arm wrestler
That made me jump up and sing The Star Spangled Banner after Brzenk won lol 🍻 🦅🇺🇸
hahaha
😂🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🍷🍺
I would have sung erika if leo won
The crowd was electric for this event. I hope we get more events here in the states.
I really like these analysis
And you have good voice to listen. How you say, easy to listen.
The man is a technician always has been! Love John Brzenk

Great video as usual 🙏🏻
And...he's John Brzenk. Exactly.
Idk how John is still so good. Physics broken.

Exactly my thought when i saw john holding in those crazy positions
First time the laws of physics were suspended this badly since 9/11
💀

Bro
Haha. Yes indeed
haha nice1
I was proud to be an American that day. It’s been a minute since I was patriotic
How’s is John still doing it?? Simply amazing…
John is amazing

Haha. I had the same association in my head at that description of two absolutely not 'broke back' kinda guys.
Its hard to even fathom how John still had strength for round 3 with that strap just strangling his hand and wrist for 2 rounds. Unreal.
If Leonidas watches this video, oh man!!!
You think he'd be kicking himself?
If Leonidas could press he might've got it
@PeP I'm having 2 armwrestling matches next week, you got any advice on how to counter flop press 😅🙏
Kick your opponent under the table whenever you feel like they're trying to flop press
Look up how Devon did negate genadis flop press in one of the rounds . That was so beautiful to watch.
Now I'm not knowledgeable at this, but you can try to hook, since it is the opposite of flopping.

double flop press
Giorgi Tsvetkov vs Leonidas Arkona
Whut lol
Day 699 of asking for a Toddzilla training analysis.🙂💔
I still love you, idk that I know enough about westside though to make this video :(
@@PerformanceEnhancingPancakes unfortunate but glad that at least you made it clear enough.
Yeah, sad to see how much John has deteriorated even from the time he faced Voevoda to now

@@theshapeexists where did I imply I'm not thankful, making an observation on his decline doesn't mean we're not

@@SDSen did I say you weren't? It's a statement, not a command.
@@firewarrior725-cs1 there's good and bad on socials and it's subjective end of the day
I think it's called the probation lift
Pronation lift, surely...
Stupid title
