I've seen a lot of dumbass statements from new guys that are full of piss and wind in my day reading this board. This is one of the better ones for me. Thanks.

The majority of Americans in the Sport of Professional Arm Wrestling are not chemically filled monsters using human enhancing substances. Sad to say there are have been some in our Country. The beautiful part is, we have taken on those users and achieved championship status so many times and will continue to do so, because we are Americans. We think, live and act differently, we are Americans. Would they (the users) be able to destroy their competitors the way the have or win world titles if they were naturally strong? We all know the cheating that takes place, just so Countries can claim they have the best. How does this represent our Sport? Look at Lance Armstrong and what has happen to him. He lost everything he became and just yesterday lost his major sponsors. They all should be banned. Have them go through a complete detox period and allow them to come back in our Sport to compete without the aid of enhancing substances. They ought to be have stripped of any titles or honorary status they have stolen away from those who deserve them, like they have done with so many Professional Athletes. I don't know what the majority of you think, but I wouldn't have them as my mentor, coach or a representative of what the Sport of Arm Wrestling is all about. I have lost respect for these people, not that I had any anyway.

I'm not trying to hijack this thread. I find the conversation between Kyle and David Very interesting. If I may I just wanted to talk about for a second of whether or not steroids are addicting.
Steroids in an of themselves do not have an active ingredient in them that is addicting like alcohol, cocaine, pain killers, caffeine, etc
However, addiction is two fold. The chemical dependency aspect and the possible adictive personality of the person afflicted with the addiction. If a person is an addict or has addictive personality they could simply could become adicted to a non addictive substance and it would have a hold on them almost as or even as intense as a chemical addiction.
Examples of this could be people being addicted to marijuana, gambling, sex, food, pornography, and absolutely steroids. Not an addictive substance, but absolutely true addictions.

I didn't think he looked that big in Brazil. I was expecting him to be huge, but there are guys from the US that are just as big if not bigger.

I saw him at World's in 2010 and 2011 too Chris. And at 2010 World's I was like "That's Arsen?" and in 2011 he definitely looked bigger but still not as big as in pics. He was 198 at both tourneys.

This does not show how he really looks like because the camera is in a wrong place. I must say this, even if I get kicked off the board, I do not give a f..k. I do not understand it when most people state he was on huge amount of stereoids and so..., without even having seen him or knowing him. No one can disagree that the guy is a beast, he beat everyone when we has 75kg, when he was 78 kg, he even beat 85kg worl champion and 100kg world champion Jon Onchescu at 78kg. Why wasn't no one saying that he was on something when he was 75-80kg?? He beat everyone when he was 80kg, 85kg or 90kg (he beat John). And after all this most people talk about him being fake based on nothing...I know many guys lost their hair in a couple of years, dont forget, caucasus is very different from the USA. Stop it, simply admit that the guy is born for armwrestling and is just a nice and cool guy. I am sure NONE of you, taking about him like that can tell him that in person. Some of the previous posts are bullcrap. Zoloev is now beating everyone under 90kg, being only 80kg and I am sure if he gains weight and becomes 95-100kg the sam people would say he is on stereoids, this is funny.

OMG..steriods in armw??? Why,what would you have to gain.I mean i jus found out about this sport,did not know they even had armw tournys in the U.S. much less overseas. By the way I lived over seas for 3 years,never saw one tourny advertised or anything. Seems like a nice little underground sport though.But im still reading and learning,so give me some time,is this arsen guy the best ever in this hobby,or is there some other top guy?

Lol this guy is funny, in this hobby a 150lb guy would snap your arm, literally. You wouldnt have a prayer against and pro in regards to a victory. Every person who come into this sport with a 'you cant beat me' theory gets their a** handed tp them in a humiating way. Have some respect.
