Jobi 387 Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Best by far is big Denis but I think he's done and dusted, too much Jungle Juice has f****d him up good and proper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gnasher16 30,121 Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 Alek is referred to as schoolboy,he is a cracking prospect in the sport but has never pulled any of the bigger names yet....his older brother Alex who is referred to as Toproll has made an impression and beaten some decent names,his biggest match to date was against Justin Bishop which he lost 3 - 0....Justin is in the top 5 middleweights in the world....so for a couple of very ineperienced young lads they are doing great,travelling all round the world learning and becoming stronger.......arm wrestling is a sport that takes years and years to reach your full potential,to master techniques,develop the mental and physical make up and understanding of the bodies mechanics.....a lad like Alek simply because of his age and genetics has every chance of reaching the top of the sport but it wont be for a while yet.

Cyplenkov has never been " the best ".....he is not rated in the top 20 right handed and left handed is probably around 4 or 5.....he beat Larratt convincingly but is paying the price physically i personally dont think Denis will ever reach the world number 1. Levan Saginashvili and Michael Todd are the 2 best super heavyweights at this moment although Saginashvili was recently beaten by Eugeny Prudnik. To be considered the best you have to dominate the sport over a period of time and Denis Cyplenkov has never done that.....the greatest arm wrestler who ever lived is without doubt John Brzenk....followed probably by Devon Larratt.....personally i dont think we will ever again see an arm wrestler dominate like Brzenk did the sport is becoming too big.

Of course he has, I think he's unbeaten with the left hand. He has beaten all of the worlds best, Larratt, Chaffee, Pushkar, Todd, all of them. Larratt has stated Denis is by far the most powerful man he's ever pulled with, nobody has destroyed Larratt so easily. Brzenk is the greatest of all time without a doubt, his longevity has been unreal. Edited August 7, 2019 by Jobi Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The 3 best left handed pullers in the world you havent mentioned....Sagnashvili,Laletin and Bagent.....Cyplenkov has never pulled them. Nobody can claim to be the best when they can only win on 1 arm Levan Sagnashvili is ranked number 1 right and left arm. Personally i think the way Michael Todd has perfected the kings move Cyplenkov even back at his strongest will not have the levers to get around it....his only chance would be out of the strap but the majority of Todds matches go to straps. Larratt stating Denis is the most powerful puller he has faced means nothing about winning arm wrestling matches,Devon is probably the most technical puller in the world yet not in the top 20 for power.

Yes and they haven't pulled him, I think all 3 of them have been beat on their best arm, Denis hasn't. You do know Denis beat Todd just before he got ill, kings move included? I personally think that move is bullshit and should be banned. Thats the thing, Devon can overcome every puller just about out there with technique, against Denis he didn't have the slightest of hope.

The rankings are there for a reason mate Denis hasnt pulled in the biggest events......why should the kings move be banned it doesnt break any rules and actually takes an extremely high level of technical ability,knowledge and strength......regarding the loss to Denis...Devon has said since that he has beaten many guys who are 20% stronger than he is with pure technique alone,but that Denis was probably 30/35% stronger than him and it was too much to overcome.....he also said that to beat Denis he needs to get stronger,but as much as he loves the sport is not willing to die for it !....basically implying he is not willing to take the huge amounts of juice that Denis does.
