WOW....Josh Handeland voting for and talking about Rich Lupkes...what a SURPRISE...coulda knocked me over with feather.....NEVER saw that one comin Thank you Cpt Obvious, everyone knows Josh and Rich are both from MN, so why wouldnt he support a fellow MN armwrestler.. He is standing behind someone he feels is great. So go ahead and continue to state the obvious, I am sure there are a couple people on here that still don't know Josh Handeland is a big fan of Rich Lupkes ;D ;D ;D

todd don't get justin started. PLEASE Sure thing, Josh is a nice kid and fairly new to the sport, he goes to alot more tournaments than most people do, Sure he is swinging on Rich's nuts, but why bust his balls for it? Everyone has to have someone to look up to.. It's no different than me thinking my brother is one of the best armwrestlers I know, even though there are still alot of guys out there that can beat him...

Two things....1, i bust his b*lls or anyone else's because i can and i enjoy it ;D 2, How can you think your brother is one of the best armwrestlers out there when YOU said "there are STILL ALOT of guys out there that can beat him" isnt that almost like a double standard?

Enjoy it all you want.. just because it is fun does not make it right, Double standard huh? How is that so? I know my brother personally, I know there are people out there that would probably beat him from speculation and educated guesses. I however do not know any of those people personally. So how is that a double standard? I still feel he is one of the best armwrestlers I know, not know of.. on that note, who are you and what have you done? No hard feelings just having fun... Sorry Don, the ball was already rolling,,

Travis Bagent vs Richard Lupkes is a great challenge match which will effect the World Rankings;
Top 10 World, men right
1. Devon Larratt, CAN 2. John Brzenk, USA 3. Andrey Pushkar, UKR 4. Travis Bagent, USA 5. Denis Cyplenkov, RUS 6. Ron Bath, USA 7. Richard Lupkes, USA 8. Arsen Liliev, RUS 9. Ion Oncescu, ROM 10. Genadi Kvikvinia, GEO
Ron Bath vs Denis Ciplenkov or Andrey Pushkar would be the match that i would love to see!!!

I just didn't realize Devon was ranked higher. Would that be attributed to participation at worlds?

Devon beat Ron,Travis and John to be ranked number 1 in the world.WAF worlds effects some of the classes very much.but esspecially for the classes from 90kg to over EAF and WAF has some effects since 6 of the top 10 guys do not really pull EAF or WAF (or very seldom).
challenge matches have DIRECT effect on the rankings since there is no excuse for losing such as bad draw.the rest is my opinions based on my judgement with my knowledge and experiences.

In 2006 Devon pulled and Beat Ron in a close supper match then they pulled again in 2007 and Devon won 6-0, Then Devon pulled Travis and beat him 5-1 I think and then went on to beat John in 2008 6-0 and that is why he is #1. Devon and John are going to pull in Aug in Turkey and John will have his chance to get his spot back.

But i'll be glad to whup your ass on the table if your a 76, cause i really never heard of you so dont know how fat you are??? Don Underwood rules Your right I know very few of them personally, I have met and talked with alot of them.. I have escorted my brother to two world events, and had an awesome time both years, heck we packed D Hannel, M Todd, J Battles, S Lohmann and a couple others in a jeep commander because their ride left them at the airport in Canada. You my friend are a little fatter than I am, As far as a good armwrestler, I am not and probably will never be, I don't have alot of extra time to devote to training.. So you will never hear of me, My brother on the other hand is already making a name for himself, and I am just here to support him however he needs Good luck with your career, see you at toproll Aug 8 if you make it down, then you can whup my ass on the table for sure...
