Didn't Artem take both of Taras' hands at the Europeans last year?

Cleve Dean has to be near the top if not # 1. The size of his hand is almost unbelieveable.
The only way I've seen him beat is to attach his arm.

Hey Christian
Artem did beat Taras last year, in the early rounds Taras beat him easily to get to the final,(rite hand)but Artems not just very strong he call also pull a good match and is much smarter than Taras on the table,when it went to straps and Taras had a man who could match him for power his lack of pulling ability let him down as we saw with john in zloty as we know the straps are a hole new ball game and people beat people they have no rite to in them.

Have we forgotten Rob Sasso,20 rep's on the number 3,and had the 4 this close [],Rob can squeeze your hand so hard that it will force you to open your hand against your will,his wrist is not bad either  |

Mike Selearis's hand and wrist feel very dominating. Anyone Agree?
