Here is a version on the video without any narration.. czcams.com/video/IJo3WCn5xBM/video.html
You fought the hulk!
His arm isn't the world's strongest.
It's his arm and technique which enables him to win so much.
Your narration was very good.
How do I become big like Devon?
am not gonna lie jiu jitsu look sus as fuck lol
Firas, u r the greatest. I treasure every second that I got to spend at tristar. U guys are the best at what u do, and u have the coolest culture. I'm looking forward to the next time I get to visit the center of excellence. Much love brother.
The feeling is mutual Devon! Everyone at the gym loved having you! You have a heart of gold and are truly one of a kind! Much love and thank you for not ripping my head off! Very appreciated ❤️
Two legends ♥️
Devon I wanna see you compete in grappling dude. You'd be insaaaaane.
All white belts quit on the spot after seeing Devon across from them 🤣
Love to see this collaboration!
I have never heard a bad word spoken about Devon, it speaks volumes when literally every person who meets him says the same positive things about him. Legend.
he was special forces which threw me off😂 you wouldn’t expect someone that genuine and nice to be a killer
That dude is just built different. He’s the manifestation of the ‘Parker’ character in Richard Stark novels, cut from stone.
He’s Canadian. They are very nice and respectful for the most part. I can’t speak on everyone but the Canadians that I have worked with since our company was based out of Canada, we’re all great.
I remember the Vice President came in and saw me having trouble with one of our models. He took his coat off and got on the ground to see what was wrong with it. Sat there for about an hour too.
I also never heard a bad word about you.
@@TheAlexJimenez Speaking as a Canadian, he is one who makes us proud, genuinely great guy.
Devon is being incredibly gentle. Just every aspect of his body language and how he is using (or lack of using) his grip just speaks volumes.
he could probably break the other dudes wrist pretty easily with an aggressive twist if he's not careful
Exactly, he doesn't wanna hurt this guy lol in a real grapple he would snap this black belt in half 🤣
Exactly the guy is acting like he really did something to Devon .. he was the one trying to go all out while Devon was straight chillen..
Devon could have pulled his head off….. literally
@@MixinUK yeah this is near when the size is to much for highest belt in a fight. if the black belt was 6 ft 200 lbs he could most def beat devon in real fight
It makes me happy that people like Larrett are in this world. Someone of his caliber who is willing to explore his physical arts and expand his knowledge with other types of martial arts. He seems like a great guy, the kind that would give you the shirt off his back. Thanks for the awesome post guys.
Its not really that much of exploring considering he was the combative instructor for his unit when in the Canadian military.
@@codythomas52 considering the man stepped in against Thor and boxed and you could really tell he didn’t have much boxing xp.the man’s brave and is admired by many.
@@kieronjdonovan how did you interpret my response as negative to devon?
i feel like devon was being an extremely gentle papa.
It's a friendly match. Two men from that much different of weight would never meet.
This is why there are weight classes.
precisely. in the story of David and goliath, David had a sling. The sling was a requirement lol. @@synaestesia-bg3ew
Devon lieterally looks like he is just trying not to hurt you the whole match.
I agree. Yes Tristan is beyond experienced in his techniques but I have to say that Devon is strictly not trying to hurt him. I wonder what the results would be if it was an all out match, no holding back.
@@Ginosrule at this level of size difference you can't hide yourself behind technique. You can't arm lock an elephant.
8:20 This moment right here would be the end if it was an all out fight
He didn't know how to follow through with that crank at 8:20 could have separated spine from his freaking brain . There's a point where technique doesn't outdo power just saying
@Bessie he got submitted because Devon did not want to rely solely on his strength. He was there to learn not win because of his brute strength.
@12:17 shows what Devon could do at any time this whole sparring match if he really wanted to. Devon has jujitsu experience and he actually taught it in the SF’s. Devon has also some of the biggest/strongest arms/hands/wrists in the world and he’s a world champion arm wrestler, at least 6”5 and in this video weighs probably at least around 250-260.
People don’t really know what a big dude Devon is. A monster. Great video, thanks.
Naah you dont know
Devon isn’t just a military man he was apart of the JTF2s with 7 deployments in Afghanistan. It’s the Canadian tier 1 special forces for counter terrorism/hostage rescue and they were so secretive that the Canadian prime minister didn’t even know of their existence. Dude is a legit bad ass. Prince Edward County proud!!!
If it was so secretive the prime minister didnt know how did you find out.
@@sajidkhanmahmood not the current prime minister, this came out a while ago. I believe 1990s to mid 2000s is when they were first discovered during a counter terrorist operation and the prime minister at the time had no idea about them.
In other words in a real situation he has the ability and the training to end this judo guy if he wanted. You could see that Devon is playing around and he is letting this guy grab him.
@@wgfilmphoto i see
@@msolav63 oh yeah, i dont think anyone questions that if this was a real fight Devon would win.
"I would never arm bar him. I would never risk his career."
Massive appreciation and respect for that comment right there.
@@necropotence4781 this made me chuckle
@@nathangardner4084 like the girls do when u lower ur pants?
heel hooks are far more dangerous lmao
@@chenwang643 not to an arm wrestler
@@anon2427 hahaha thats a fair point
This was pretty cool to watch. Devon seems like one of the nicest people on earth. And the fact that you went out of your way to make sure you didn't injure his arms, absolute respect.
He’s smiling the whole time. It’s clear that he’s all about playing and having fun. He’d be really freaking scary if he intended to destroy you.
You so mad kid lmao
He is right tho .. Devon was just playing around
@@biglittleboy9827lol you mad little kid? Devin could have snapped this guy anytime he wanted.
With his grip and finger strength, it really does seem like he'd be able to just dig his fingers into your muscles and rip shit out.
He could probably break someone's neck with just his hands very easily. Either that or crushing your windpipe with one hand. His hands are like looking at a bundle of bananas.
Your comment was too damn funny hahaha.
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
like hanyama from baki
@@tankjones513 takes 30lbs to crush your trachea
Every time you see a vid like this, with Devon going all the way out of his comfort zone, you can't help but smile and appreciate how much fun he's having.. :-)
He's such a legend. Awesome bloke
He's like a friendly grizzly bear
u would have fun too fit hat would bring u easy money. he also always post to a comment with his vertiy tag so that his comment get pushed tot he top and good-willed comments always to egt likes and sub. but whatever. there are way worse abusers of youtube system here and copyrights etc
You should watch videos of Eddie Hall doing not-strongman/powerlifting stuff - its the same kind of thing
What a brilliant video, from the awesome Devon to the brave challenger, both of you showing great character and constraint while having fun. If only there were more people like you guys.
I know Devon personally and consider him a a friend. His hands are so strong it’s hard to explain. He is literally like hydraulic machinery. That u rolled with him is incredible
It would be interesting seeing Devon go to a gi Jiu Jitsu class. If he got a hold of anyone's collar/lapel, they're not popping off that grip.
Devon Larrat not only has insane strength, and slick mindgames, but a deep and nuanced understanding of posture and relative force. Listening to him explain arm wrestling is like listening to Firas or John Danaher explain a jujitsu position.
Not to mention his insane muscular endurance
It’s also something to note that you can tell neither of them are going 100%. Whenever you have the bigger guys filled with adrenaline in a real fight it’s a whole different story. Very impressive to see the guy with such little technique show so much power without even looking like he’s trying
Totally agree. I doubt many people would bet against Devon if it was a fight for life and death.
Well, adrenaline or not, a leglock is a leglock.
@@biglittleboy9827 leg kicks don’t work with people hundreds of pounds heavier all they need to do is grab you, pick you up, and use their weight to slam you to the ground. There’s a reason every sparring floor/fighting floor is soft ground. If a bigger person does this to you unless you just run away from them there’s nothing you can do to stop from having your bones crushed into the hard earth. Try leg kicking an athletic big guy that’s charging you for a tackle. He’s not squared up, he’s coming for you with his longer reach iron jaw and adrenaline.
@@biglittleboy9827 I say this as a 5’10 200lb guy. I’m not doing this to many people it’s just a fact of big vs small. In the real world the only way I take down a big guy is by doing it really quick before they can go to enrage mode. And fight really dirty. Just look at the UFC rules, and break them, those rules are there bc certain things are just OP.
@@biglittleboy9827 holy shut I’m fried I read Leg kicks not leg locks. Still try to leg lock a guy who can squat twice your body weight lol. Just try to tell me how it goes
What an absolute beast Devin is! It is clear that you know what you’re doing on the mat, and the Jujitsu you employed was amazing.
Lesson learned: become a strongman and a seasoned grappler at the same time.
@@booglog what? No man not at all! That’s nonsense .. u can safely do both!
Not sure I understand the point of this video, granted I haven't watched hardly any of it but just from the title and a few seconds, what's the point of matching an arm wrestler against a seasoned grappler?
@@kbanghart seeing what black bet level technique can do for an average sized guy against a large guy who isn’t skilled but uses brute force .. seeing if with knowledge u can overcome large guys
Hhhhhhh
@@imawarrior313 ok that makes sense. Same size doesn't make really any sense, but with a bigger guy yeah.
I love both you and Devon dearly. You're both Canadian legends, I could have never imagined for this crossover but I'm so happy it happened. He has a match coming up very soon against another GOAT level arm wrestler John Brzenk, make sure to wish him luck and keep in contact these collaborations are very fun.
I love how humble and articulate you are. Thank you for the breakdown.
I've seen the video of the match posted in other forum, but to see it with commentary is such a great lesson! Mad respect for Firas and Devon, for stepping out of his world and into Firas's...
The funny thing is he's like a big kid in a huge body 🤣
" It's like wrestling your Papa when your a kid" - great analogy
Such respect. Coach, you made this so much more interesting by continually telling us how powerful and athletic Devon is. We all don’t have your perspective of having felt that strength first hand. We all know he is world class strong but knowing that from hearing it or reading it is not like experiencing it. This video showed how intelligent you grapplers are. You have perfected so many aspects of grappling that you knew that it is as important knowing what not to do as it is knowing what to do. With your Magnus Carlsen brilliance in end games your tactics were geared to foot locking Devon. You first made sure this giant didn’t head lock you or pick you up. Then, you had to roll around a bit until you knew you could lock on one of those paddles the rest of us call our feet. But, your constant respect for this great man and world’s best athlete was what made this video. “History’s Strongest Arm”. Great narration by a phenomenal martial artist.
Arm bar commentary. Perfect. I appreciate that consideration. That’s HUGE. I could easily see people hurting him to prove they are better even though it isn’t his sport. If you arm wrestled him, he wouldn’t shatter your arm, he’d give the same respect to you.
FACTS brother :)
Devon larrat is ex canadian special forces, if this was a real fight and devon was actually angry and trying hard he would absolutely destroy this guy, he wouldn’t be able to pull an arm bar off lol
@@Johndoe-gf7eu You know modern military including special forces get VERY little in the way of hand to hand combat training, right? Like pathetically little. The ones that went on to be successful in mma or o bjj had to train them.
My favorite part of this video is seeing (and listening to) the mutual respect you have for each other. Really easy to dump on someone who operates outside their comfort zone - great watch and listen!
I was smiling the whole time while watching this. Very informational thank you!!
Awesome video-pure respect all around. Can't believe I just found this now. Liked, subscribed and shared.
Devon is a living legend, literally. He’s the man you’re lucky to have met him 👏🏼👏🏼💯
You would have to be an extremely elite Jui-Jitsu player to even stand a chance against Devon if he really came at you with bad intentions. He's a rare freak specimen and not just a normal man.
What a fun "challenge" interaction. It's nice seeing stuff like this that isn't always rough and tumble. I would love to see him grip a gi, I bet his grip strength is insane!
Fantastic, mature, and interesting video! Thanks to both of you.
Devon is such a classy guy. 👏 How can you not admire this Renaissance man? Bless his heart.
He would be the most terrifying blue belt should he decide to do jiu jitsu
I think he would be hard to beat after just 10 classes. He is just missing the basics, once he knows these it will be extremely hard to submit him. Anyways, impressive get together by both of you.
The hardest thing for him would be to not accidentally hurt his sparring partners lol
@@bigheadrhino Yea, if he were going hard for real, I could see a can opener....genuinely open your can. He could likely kill someone with a can opener easily.
@@yellowwducky yeah, he would probably need a modified version of jiu jitsu. I don’t think he even needs to use two hands for leverage on most subs. His hands are also so huge with grip strength to match, he may actually be able to just grab peoples necks for a choke with his hand. Also, imagine if you get his back and he gets a hold of your wrist or your ankle lol
Devon once said he once dream about being Canada judo professional
Awesome narration and awesome etiquette, Thank you very much. Learned a lot.
“I wrote the book on back takes.” No one is more in love with firas than firas
I hear what your sayin but it’s clear Devon went super low throttle for this exhibition. Any of us, regardless of skill set would have a hell of a time with a guy like Devon. Great entertainment to watch. Glad you all had fun.
Well said, Devon going full bore would be a serious proposition!
Devon might be physically impossible to armbar. If he had jiujitsu knowledge with his strength it would be like trying to grapple a steam roller.
Many many years ago I had the sometime misfortune of being the next heaviest guy to a strongman that trained at the same gym as me. If he got my wrists, there was just no removing his hands. Even when he was a brand new white belt, to my knowledge the only guy able to arm bar him was the current BJJ Pan American medium heavy brown belt champion, and future black belt world champ
What a fun video, and two incredible people. Devon is so fun to watch doing anything.
I love your scientific approach to this and good teaching skills.
His arm's bigger than your thigh! 😳😅
You are surprised?
Brother that is the best arm wrestler to ever walk earth
Debatable
😂
@@BazFitt most would argue he’s not the best ever but he’s up there for sure
I like how you clearly explain you got him into your game, you went with a game plan and executed it, you studied him to win. Also you considered all the social elements of this sparring and knew your strenght/weakness
I'm really impressed with Devon. Lots of fun, he keeps trying things outside of his core, learns and is respectful after. Seems like he'd be a pleasure to be around and to train with.
You are so professional. I love watching your videos.
The ending comments of the video show Firas is an absolute gem of a human being and a true martial artist .. all the respect to him
You should be honest and tell people he was probably using 20 percent of his strength against you. Problem with somebody this strong is that he would break you if he really wanted too
He could likely sub him with brute force from most positions.
This was my exact thought, If you watch carefully again, devon keeps his hands open and fingers extended most of the time, he is actively trying to not grab the guy because his grip strength would likely crush him. even the times he tossed him he didnt grab him.
You obviously don't fight.
@@xbenxwilsonxhighlights7879 lol bro he’s literally two of him with special forces training. Arm wrestling strength transfers perfectly to submissions.
Gary goodridge came from armwrestling.
Dude I was thinking the same shit lol. Technique definitely goes a long way when the two people are more or less matched.
I love these breakdowns. It's so important to see demonstrations like this to keep Jujitsu honest and effective!!
BJJ is one of the very few martial arts that could stand up to this kind of testing and scrutiny. I'm sure the martial art you study couldn't.
effective??? he didn't stand a chance, he needed a gun to win this fight
It was like Devon just got a new puppy and was playing, do you play fetch???
Good thing Devon ate before the match or he would have just eaten you!!!!!
I became a fan of Devon after seeing him roll with you and climb with Magnus lol , great guy.
This is a great demonstration of how, no matter the skill level of the opponent, physical size and strength are always factors which need to be respected. Knowing which tools to use, or avoid, in any given situation is the key to mastering any skill.
Of course it is. Otherwise humans would grapple with silverback gorrilas.
@@v3n481 this just became the next video I want to see lol "Bjj black belt vs Silverback gorilla" 🤣
@@v3n481 ok Gordan lol
you understand that it only works when giant is willing to play jj, if he hits you with his giant fist itll be different story.. not trashing jj, but its no magic
You guys have so mutch fun it's nice too watch
Awesome vid thanks for sharing!
Devon is an incredible athlete and a great person! Thanks for showing this clip while he was there training for Hafthor. This clip is way better than the fight was. This again just shows how great Devon is. Thanks again take care, stay safe and healthy.
I enjoyed watching this on Devon’s channel, your breakdown adds another level to it. Thanks for the content.
Man this video is just excellent.
Thank you.😁👍
What I love most about Devon is that he is always smiling.
Never seen him with an attitude, he is just a fun loving giant that likes to play.
God help the man who truly upsets him though, good lord.
I’m not a big fan of jujitsu or of arm wrestling but both of you guys are awesome and show respect for each other and this is a lesson that crosses all boundaries and all sports. Congrats to you both! Although I’ll admit jujitsu folks are hard to mess with! Ha!
He a machine, looks like a great guy too
Watching this video, a regular guy like me sees 2 guys rolling around on the mat, but when you explain all the nuisances, it is amazingly technical. Thanks for such a great video.
Great video and excellent commentary.
Fascinating video, thanks
I really respect your approach to this match and your thoughtfulness toward his safety despite the great disparity in size and strength. Too many Jiu-Jitsu practitioners, and fighters in general, approach every sparring session with ego above all else. Everything is full speed, full power and in many cases full extension when attempting submission. That's not the best way to work with other people in training.
The respect you had for his arm wrestling career, choosing not to take the arm bar, is indicative of what kind of person you are. I was impressed. Keep up the good work.
Have you thought that maybe Devon didn't want to hurt him?
8:32 is seriously impressive, you definitely have an extremely high level of technical skill.
well it's Firas Zahabi (not sure if I spelled it correctly) this guy is world renowned as one of the most knowledgeable people in fighting.
So much fun, a pleasure to watch
Really enjoyed watching this video 😍
@15:53 Devon is such a good sport that during the fight he takes the time to admire the nice thick beard of his opponent.
There is a interesting legend about Hercules (you know the one) that as he was going to do one of his great acts he met in a village a man that claimed that he was the youngest son of Earth, as Earth the one that gave birth to the Titans fathers of Gods Earth, and Earth, his mother, gave him strength as long as his feat touched the ground (she wanted to protect her youngest kid) and so no one could beat him in a bare-hand fight, so naturally Hercules challenges him and they fight, now either their fight takes days and Hercules loses or he losses and stays at the village to challenge the last Titan again and again, and he losses all of those fights, at the end he figures that if the Titan takes strength from the earth he must cut that connection, so he lifts him up and starts hitting him with one arm as the other hold him up, cut from his mother help the Titan was no match for the demi-god and their fight ended. That legend somehow stuck to me, it made sense in a strange way, I could just picture a man who is strong and also knows how to use leverage with his grappling so well that he appears to everyone else as a unbeatable Titan, and a man really strong that figures that as long as he keeps him off ground most of his techniques are gone and its only a mater of punching him enough. You remind me that legend at the star of your video when you said that it would be bad if he lifts you up (paraphrasing), great video, great commentary.
This was such a great video. Sportshio between two awesome athletes and very good explanations.
What an entertaining video. Lots of smiles.
what a cool dude, guy came in with no experience I believe you said, and here he was laughing about having a good time, never once did he seem to be out of control which as a smaller guy I can't tell you how awesome that is. I know he benched you off at one point but was all in good fun, good stuff, much respect to this guy and not having an ego about it, this is the type of person you want to share the mats with.
Devon Larattt was in Canadian Special Forces and has some Martial Arts experience. If you have ever watched any of his arm wrestling videos, it will show you how much stronger he is than the average human being. He is actually a small guy in the Professional Arm Wrestling world. This is a guy who can beat "The Mountain" Hafthor Bjornson in arm wrestling and can defeat 2 men at once in arm wrestling. Hard to imagine the kind of strength this man has in his hands, grip, tendons, upper body. He can beat like 50 men in a row back to back in arm wrestling. Firas Zahabi must have some skills to be able to even survive against someone who is not only much larger than him, but is also very athletic and has a kind of superhuman strength that most people have never experienced and is hard to even imagine. Devon is also not a complete novice in grappling. For anyone who has seen the feats of strength and athleticism that Devon Laratt has displayed, this is impressive for Firas to even survive. Devon has defeated Denis Cyplenkov in arm wrestling who is truly a genetic freak. Devon Laratt is not just a big, strong guy you might see in a gym. He has done some pretty unbelievable things, so for jiu jitsu to be effective against him is impressive.
@@josephgarceau6753 to the uninitiated, reading your comment must sound like you are talking bollox or about a mythological legend of arm wrestling "50 men, yeah whatever!" ....But as a Devon fan I know it all to be true and it's all documented here on CZcams. He is a true legend of the sport and a great ambassador. Also as you said, he's not completely inexperienced, he's done martial arts and I believe he has done Judo specifically a fair amount.
He's so specialised in armwrestling that his tendons won't allow him to fully extend his arm anymore 😂
@@josephgarceau6753 everything was absolutely spot on in your comment except for him beating denis
He has had experience , Judo
I hope he goes back sparring with you, it makes great content and we could see your techniques very well applied to a big man as well. Very educational video, love it!
Guy you have an excellent way of articulating each move of your art, your a great teacher.
This guy is such a good sport and looks like he’s having so much fun. Awesome to see.
The way you describe and explain things is incredible!!
gets submitted and comes out smiling everytime. class act devon
That was a great video coach
That was a really enjoyable vid very well explained. Keep up the good work
Devon Larratt is a legend! Imagine if he trained with you guys for 5 years lol. His chokes would be insane
Devon was already going easy let's be honest. He could have easily crushed any of this guys body parts with his bear-level grip and arm strength, his arm, his thigh, not to mention neck, all he would have needed to do is grab any part of him and it'd be over. Devon snaps forearms for a job (or literally, he tries NOT to snap peoples forearms), he could have easily snapped his like a twig with his right hand. No amount of technical skill in the world will stop your bones snapping when faced with an opponent like this, in reality
@@chuddlevideos yea but the other guy could have hurt him too in those holds
@@chuddlevideos Iron Mike
@@veroman007 Nope, not a chance. The moment Devon grabs his wrist, he's able to put a MASSIVE amount of force, that you can't even imagine, and break his fucking wrist. Which, he grabs his wrist in seconds. But, he's not trying to hurt Firas. Let's not be delusional. Fight wouldn't last 30 seconds. lmao
Great observation about headlock escapes. As a big goon former wrestler I always grab a headlock and try to hip throw people- I can’t help it
6:54 it's amazing to me, as someone who has zero knowledge of the sport, that even while on your back, with a monster tangled up and looming over you, you are in complete control of the match in this seemingly impossible position. Very well explained and beautifully done. Thank you for the clear explanations of such precise body control so that even a know-nothing like me can learn from this!
On a sidenote, my high school football coach was a heavyweight judoka and competed in 2 or 3 olympics. To demonstrate the importance of body control, he would stand in front of a mat and have us run at him at full speed, in full pads, and try to knock him down. Every single one of us was on our back before we even knew what happened. We might as well have been trying to tickle him, not tackle him lol beautiful sport. Thank you for the video
I love the spirit of this video 💪🙏
Crazy how Devon's anatomy has changed and adapted from all the years of arm wrestling. You see it in tennis players to an extent with their racquet arm but you can pick a seasoned arm wrestler from a mile away.
My first time seeing some one explaining the mechanics of your own movements in such detail..you have respected him and your self…and a first to your channel..
Excellent analysis of strategy.
We have a bluebelt at our gym who is 300lb and a most of it is muscle.
As a 200lb guy in my late 20s, it's very humbling to feel significantly smaller than someone as it's not often I get to experience that.
Devon is awesome. The dude doesn't mind stepping out of his comfort zone and is just riding the wave and creating a massive hype for the sport of arm wrestling, which is pretty much something that is engrained into each man by pure nature.
That was so cool to watch.... I've watched Devon arm wrestle for years and he's always blown me away with his strength and his mindset......I bet he was a scary Canadian Special Forces Operator..... but it was super cool to see Firas submit him with leg locks. Great stuff.
Dude, I worked with men over seas that have a similar mindest,
These MFers bust thru the door smiling
That’s scary as hell when u really think about it, coming from a completely insane individual
@@misaelarroyo5712 I've never trained with Canadian Special Operators but I've trained with damn near every other Special Operations group out there and I was always honored to train with them..... I'm glad they are out there and as badass as they are!! Be safe.
@@MrGforcebamf wherever you are from, thanks for for being a badass brother
Labels r labels, some of the best warriors I met were riflemen to dumb to know they were geniuses in disguise

Great video, thank you
Excellent video, explanations and both men are beasts!
If this was a serious real world situation I don’t think there’s much anyone could do he is absolutely massive.
I like both these guys. Great coach and BJJ practionier, and a great arm wrestler who is just a cool guy.
Great video..I enjoyed the commentary..the match..and the big fella..you both seem like great sportsmen. 👍
Really shows the importance of leverage. One moment Firas has Devon's arm pinned with his straight pin technique, and then the next moment, his entire bodyweight is being tossed by that same arm.
Devon is just playing around and having fun. You can see moments where he has the advantage but doesn’t commit cause he doesn’t want to hurt the dude.
Of course lol hes ex canadian special forces this man will be real scary in a proper fight, he would crush this guy
Devon could "so long gay bowser!" this guy. He was just trying to respect the integrity of sport.
Why do you guys always have to tell yourselves this when seeing your idols spar with smaller trained dudes lol . It’s not like him going 100% would help him escape a leglock, would probably tear his own knee with his spazzyness
First video watching you and this sport in a long time, but it was very eye opening that technique could overmatch a difference of sheer size. Thanks for your helpful commentary!
In a "match"...in the real world that dude is so strong he'll take whatever limb he gets his hands on home with him.
Great video!
Nice guys both..
Hey Doven props to you this guy eats and sleeps jujitsu yeah God is giving you a tremendous gift of physicality that cannot be denied I watched a lot of your arm wrestling matches all you can say is amazing you my friend are truly blessed God bless
Devon jumps into every arena regardless of skill, respect!
