Devon Larratt defeated Michael Todd via unanimous decision (5-0). It was a total shut out and the Canadian proved just why he is the best Arm Wrestler in the world.

After 23 years of arm-wrestling Todd’s arms have taken quite a toll. He’s fractured his right elbow about 70 times in competition and had his medial collateral ligament in his left elbow ripped off the bone, he said.

John Brzenk’s father was an arm wrestler and John says he gained some of his forearm size through genetics. He arm wrestled across tables in school for about five years. When he was in eighth grade, he broke his arm while armwrestling a friend of his father.

Prior to multiple fractures of his right arm, Todd was known to be an explosive inside armwrestler, often sacrificing his hand in the straps and applying a Dead Wrist Press . After injuries made it difficult to bring his arm closer to his body however, Michael gained height in a match by dropping below the table, known as the King’s Move.

In 2015, Brzenk became the WAL’s 196-225lb Champion (Right Handed). Brzenk was unable to defend his title in 2016 due to injuries. Brzenk effectively retired until 2021, when he defeated Chance Shaw in a supermatch at the Dave Patton Classic.

In 1995, he won the middleweight world championship. The 2009 feature documentary Pulling John chronicles Brzenk’s legendary armwrestling career and follows him intimately for 4 years during which he competes all over the world, culminating in an upset loss to Alexey Voyevoda.
