What are UAL rules exactly? for this type of cash, i would want it tested.. Rob, as far as the legalities and $ that is all between Marvin and the betting party i am considered the "talent" lol... So... i am obviously invested, you are calling Marvin's Bluff? i suggest you call him. If you are proposing and opponent, state all rules, and i will get back to you as soon as i get back from my soccer game.

Left hand - first time i ever pulled Travis in a tournament i beat him - think it was 05. we pulled left hand super match in manchester - 5-1 that was 2006 left hand @ MGC 09 and 10 where he beat me 2x Armwars dec 2010 - 4-3 for me @ UAL 3-1
In my opinion he was in his best shape in 2005 and 2006 09/10 i felt i had a chance armwars, i felt dominant UAL, it happened on 3 days notice, i feel i could have done better..
so yes, Travis has the better record.
So, if you really think he can win in this format. Back him up and see what happens. Either way, i am sure Travis and i will armwrestle many many more times before we are both in the grave.

To talk about this match some more. 1) I did not put out this match to make it unreachable, and i understand that for most guys in our sport it is. It was initially came up with through Marvin. It was going to be promoted to be vs a more "well known" figure - ratings, etc. This person would also likely be wealthy enough that 50k would not be as big of a deal. That promotion is now not happening, however the money is still on the table. So for an armwrestler they have got to be pretty confident. 2) the criterea was not entirely mine - i basicly just said yes yes yes. 2 out of 3, not my style, but it is obviously a good deal for me. Testing, the UFC likes this idea, so do i. 3) The deal with Marvin was i would get a % of the winnings, and if i lost he would likely shoot me in an alleyway lol... 4) While i do feel it is unlikely anyone takes this challenge, it is still on the table, but likely as the event gets closer it will come off the table due to planning considerations. I have heard rumblings that there are some people working on making it happen. 5) Rob if you said you had a million dollars on yourself, put out the format and issued the challenge. I promise you there would be people who would be knocking on your door in days, cause they would fit the "extremely confident" category. There is money out there. if people believe in you it can happen. There are gamblers in the world.
It happens, It doesn't.. If it makes sense - bite. If it doesn't - pass. Not sure? make a counter offer.. there are more opportunities.

Christian did you tell Marvin that you would take the 50000$ wager? cause if you did... it should be on.. i know he WAS looking for a non armwrestler option, but if you want to take it.. it should happen. let me know, it will be on.

My offer of a match has not yet been taken by anyone. It is an open challenge, anyone can take it.
Briefly to answer why i want the match tested - 1.There is money. when you are talking about 50 000 dollars, there is no excuse of no money for a test. 2. With the current theme of the world and sport - everything from Major league baseball, to Jamaican sprinters, Lance Armstrong, 12 out of 20.... we must test for any kind of legitimacy. to be recognized as athletes, by the public and sponsors. everything short of this in my opinion is shallow and unsustainable. 3. It is a very positive thing for the sport

i don't like to see small elbow fouls called.. its hard on the reff, and people always talk about it, but i think its fine. I was actually reffering to the push call. elbow getting pushed off or not and who's foul it is, that could just be your pad, your responsibility, but again. a small thing. Hope this match makes TV
