Bob Brown about ARMFIGHT # 40 in Vegas" For ALL the matches I think that once you go into a 6 round match you must have endurance and sometimes the stronger/better man does not win.Andrey Pushkar vs Michael ToddIf this match was just 1 match or best of 3 I would go with Pushkar as I think his hit and hand is too strong for Todd. However, over 6 rounds, Todd will slow him down at some point and then win the rest of the matches. 3-3 Tie or 4-2 Todd. Arsen Liliev vs Richard LupkesThis match will be all about speed of Arsen vs Hand control of Lupkes and than of course endurance again. I think Lupkes will control Arsen's hand and win in the beginning. Its only a question if Lupkes hand will get tired during set ups, than Arsen could win. 4-2 Lupkes. Stoyan Golemanov vs Todd HutchingsClassic Top Roller vs Hooker. But if this goes anywhere near a hook, Hutchings wins easy. IF Golemanov can take Hutchings wrist the war will be on because Hutchings is still very strong even without his wrist. 6-0 Hutchings. Khadzhimurat Zoloyev vs Jerry KadoretteWell no mystery here. Its going to a hook and we have already seen the outcome. Also I believe that Zoloev will recover between matches much faster. Who knows, maybe one of these guys will show us a Top Roll. 6-0 Zoleov Bob Brown "

Engin Terzi about ARMFIGHT # 40 in Vegas" S. Golemanov vs T. HutchingsI believe that Stojan will toproll Todd but the question comes after this point..Todd has an incredible side pressure with or without his wrist control..Stojan does not the ability of shoulder press finishing ability as Barbosa used against Hutchings in their supermatch which was a war..and i have seen Stojan struggling against the pullers who can pull with dead wrist (Ruslan and Khadaev).. Hutchings being a full 95kg and possibly near 100kg after the weigh in makes him the favorite of this supermatch..i seriously doubt if Stojan has ever weighed 95kg till today.. In short Todd's victory will not be surprised to me. 70% - Todd 15% - Stojan 15% - tie A. Pushkar vs M. ToddPushkar vs M.Todd will be interesting.Pushkar has an incredible start with his great back pressure followed by a great side hit,while Michael is known with his great endurance and capability of pulling in any position once the match stops somewhere which no matter if only an inch away from the pin pad.. Michael showed that he is at the level of the very best super heavy weights when he pulled against Devon.but this time he needs to be more careful as the PAL has much more strict rules than the rules that Michael pulled against Devon..if Michael's back pressure unables Pushkar's wrist curl during the side hit then Pushkar will be in trouble without any doubt.but if Michael can not do this then it will be a flash pin.if a quick hook move of Michael can lock Pushkar in a neutral position of the match then there can be a some good hook competetion as well but it is hard to catch Pushkar in an equal hook position.. 6-0 for Pushkar - 20% 5-1 for Pushkar - 20% 4-2 for Pushkar - 30% 3-3 - 30% K. Zoloyev vs J. KadoretteThis match unfortunately shows the low competetion level of the super heavy weights competetion in our sport..not till long ago Jerry was no2 on the world unlimited class rankings after beating John Brzenk and (then beat Richard Lupkes)..he weighs about 300 pounds and he did not do well against the eastern pullers at the 2011 Nemiroff event.also in the overalls he lost against 171 pounds puller Zoloev Hadzimurat but i was not sure if he was tired after pulling in heavyweight class or not.in fact Zoloev was the one just had 37 seconds long battle against the legendary Rustam Babayev only some minutes before he beat Jerry,who had a bye on first round.. So this supermatch will show if Zoloev beat Jerry because of Jerry being tired or having a bad day at Nemiroff ... or because he is stronger than Jerry... In 2007 mohegan sun event both Ron and John were able to block Jerry's dead wrist pressure with their supination and they beat Jerry on that day.it seemed like Zoloev's supinator is strong enough to force Jerry into a hook game and Zoloev's strong rotator dominates Jerry's wrist during the hook position.. Zoloev - 50% Jerry - 30% tie - 20% A. Liliev vs R. LupkesIMO Arsen should not try to win with a side hit but should try to row Richard's hammer pressure into his angle with a wrist curl to unable his heavy side pressure..Arsen should not try to target only the hand of Richard as he tried against Pushkar in Istanbul,Arsen needs to do a movement as he did against Gashevski in 2005 EAC (the second match in the final).. I believe that Richard is stronger than Arsen for sure but if Arsen can toproll Richard's wrist and stop his side pressure before Richard puts his shoulder behind his hand then Arsen will have chance to beat Richard after a tough battle and if Arsen can do this in an early round then because of being much younger than his opponent he will more likely win a possible supermatch against Richard..but if Arsen in a fresh match tries to beat Richard with a straight flash pin then Richard will beat him.JMO... Arsen - 50% Richard - 30% tie - 20% Engin Terzi "

Daca meciurile s-ar tine in cadrul Armwars as merge pe mana americanilor ( din cauza arbitrajului), dar cum nu este cazul cred ca toate vendettele vor fi castigate de europeni.

David Shead about ARMFIGHT # 40 in Vegas" Andrey Pushkar (Ukraine) vs Michael Todd (USA)Michael Todd is a powerful man but so is Andrey and although Andrey is a big guy but he is even stronger than he looks! And having seen him close up as a referee his combination of strength speed and technique make him a very hard man to beat indeed. So Andrey ( clear favorite ) Arsen Liliev (Russia) vs Richard Lupkes (USA)Richard Lupkes is a massive man but that doesn’t always count for much in Armwrestling if the wrestler is not skilled, But having seen Richard Win the WAF worlds as long ago as 1989 (I think) makes him one of the most experienced wrestlers around and he is awesome at the table to, but he is up against Arsen Liliey one of the worlds best and Richard (I am sure he wont like me saying this) is getting old to compete at this level so it is close and I don’t know Richards currant form but I will make him the favorite on his awesome record. Richard ( Favorite JUST) Stoyan Golemanov (Bulgaria) vs Todd Hutchings (USA)I like the way Todd Hutchings sets up and wrestles he comes to the table well prepared mentally has great concentration doesn’t mess around has a great start technique (that I don’t often see outside the Nordic countries. I don’t know why) and gets the job done, but once again he is up against such a good opponent in Stoyan Golemanoy so it’s a tough one to call but I am going with Todd because I like his style (favorite just) Khazimurat Zoloev (Russia) vs Jerry Cadorette (USA)Now I have talked about Jerry Cadorettes style before and how I don’t like it although it can be effective but I might not like his wrestling but I do like Jerry It takes a Big man to be humble in defeat and after being beaten in the Nemiroff world cup Jerry (And the others from the USA yes even Travis). Where very humble and I think got a lot of respect for it to. But for this fight I think Jerry is up against it and I have to make Khazimurat Zoloey (the favorite). But this time I hope Jerry proves me wrong. "

Tibi Mihalcea about ARMFIGHT # 40 in Vegas" Khazimurat Zoloev RUS vs Jerry Cadorette USAThe first supermatch is the result of this year’s biggest surprise, Khazimurat Zoloev’s win over the number 2 ranked armwrestler in the World, Jerry Cadorette. In my opinion, Cadorette learned a lot from that loss and will not take Zoloev lightly. He will try to go to straps and then dead-wrist press Zoloev. The Russian will try to hook, drag and the flop Jerry’s wrist, exactly like he did at Nemiroff 2011. The weight and power advantage goes to Jerry Cadorette. The stamina and wrist control go to Khazimurat Zoloev. My prediction: 3:3 Stoyan Golemanov BUL vs Todd Hutchings USAThe second supermatch is the ultimate fight of styles: the toproll master, former European and World Champion, Stoyan Golemanov and the hooking beast, American National Champion, Todd Hutchings. This will be a very interesting fight as the winner will be the one who imposes his style. The Bulgarian is known for his ability to take the wrist of his opponents with ease. On the other side, the American proved to have one of the most powerfull hooks under 95 kg. The technique advantage goes to Golemanov while the weight and power advantages go to Hutchings. In my opinion, Todd is also the favorite in a strap match. My prediction: 1:5 Hutchings Arsen Liliev RUS vs Richard Lupkes USAThe third match will be a war between two of the best hits in the World! I wouldn’t blink while watchings this fight. Both pullers have about the same fighting style, Liliev being the fastest and Lupkes the most powerfull. In my opinion, if Richard Lupkes stopes Liliev’s hit, he wins the match. His strength and hand length will be a problem for Arsen. Liliev might win if he hits very strong and fast or if he takes the American’s wrist. I give the advantage to Arsen in a strap match. Richard Lupkes has the size and power advantage, Liliev has the speed and hand control. Lupkes is known to lose his wrist, even in straps. My prediction: 4:2 Liliev Andrey Pushkar UKR vs Michael Todd USAProbably one of the most awaited supermatches in recent history, this will be a fight for the ages! The tournament king vs the supermatch expert! In my opinion, Pushkar will win the first 2 matches by flash pin and Todd will win the last 2 matches in his particular fashion. The vendetta will be disputed in the 3rd and 4th match. Whoever wins these two matches, wins the whole thing. Andrey Pushkar has the speed and power advantage while Michael Todd has stamina, experience and versatility. I also give the strap advantage to Michael Todd. A very important aspect will be Todd’s shape. An over 120 kg Todd will win, a slimmer Todd will lose. My prediction: 4:2 or 2:4 depending on Todd’s shape. "

John Brzenk about ARMFIGHT # 40 in Vegas" Andrey Pushkar vs. Michael ToddI can see this match going 6-0. The problem is, I’m not sure who will get the sweep. Andrey breathes fire and has the advantage with explosive power and confidence of control, but will he be able to follow through without hesitation? If the match stops anywhere on the table, I think Michael will win, and he will continue to win match after match with great endurance, heart, and desire. My pick is 6-0 … just not sure WHO . Arsen Liliev vs Richard LupkesArsen’s strength is his explosive speed, and there may be no one faster or more confident after the “go.” He has great hammer backpressure with good hand strength. Richard is a weightlifter that has incredible unorthodox strength. I think that the outcome of this match will come down to whether or not Arsen can keep Richards hand and fingers flat. If he can, he will have the advantage and the arm strength to win this one. However, if Rich’s hand is strong enough, I’m not sure how strong Arsen is with his hand turned slightly upward. This one could go 3-3. Toddzilla vs Stoyan GolemanovToddzilla has the upper arm and shoulder strength advantage in this match up. His ability to hit to the side with or without his hand is unequal. If he can make this match go wrist to wrist it will be a successful day for him. Stoyan’s key to victory will be to control the hand… BUT even if he is able to accomplish this task, the match won’t end easily. Stoyan will have to keep Todd’s hand facing the ceiling … 4-2 Khadzhimurat Zoloyev vs Jerry KadoretteIf you would have asked anyone about this matchup a month ago, they would have laughed and said HUGE mismatch… Jerry will win easily with his size and power. We have all heard the stories about Khazimurat’s power in a hook, but no one would have guessed that it would be on the level of the best heavyweights on the planet. It would seem he is ready to prove Nemerioff was no fluke. I don’t think there is any guessing where this will go… the question will be, can Jerry build up enough push to keep Khazimurat from stopping the match in the center of the table? The endurance edge has to go to the smaller wrestler… This one will be a lot of fun to watch. You can’t help liking the smaller underdog that has the confidence to mix it up with the biggest names in the sport. 5-1 John Brzenk "
