the winner of the Vegas in 198s

[Christopher Myers]

I dont think John should be included in the polls because it is obvious he would win and everybody thinks that there is not much debate it is just a matter of which class he decides to pull. As far as the other oullers I think Kliminko will win if he shows ;D( Myers 2nd ) ;D

Hey guys
have you been seeing the same pattern i have?
Zhanna only seems to be voting for the eastern block mmm what a coinsincedence shes from Latvia the next door neighbours to these guys mmm ;D

[enginterzi]

yes Mighty,but she doesnt hide this.

Christopher,John didnt win 209s easily in zloty.if he does one hard match like he had against Taras in overall,then he probably would lose the next match .

[Zhanna Chingule]

Yes Paul I am for voting for the eastern block ;D hehe
My next door neighbours I think are best fo the best, even at times when they loose to someone! (it's not THAT often)

[enginterzi]

Zhanna,it depends on whom they are armwrestling against!!! the record that i personally have against them says different than what you wrote:)

[Zhanna Chingule]

it's YOU. But there are many other arm wrestlers and category's then only you and yours! BUt you have done all u can and even MORE when ur at table

So all RESPECT to u my friend

[enginterzi]

its why i wrote"it depends on whom they are armwrestling against".when i look at the most of the still winners i see that they all are eastern europeans,Babaev,Germanus,Taras,Gashevski,Tscakilov,Voevoda.

the top finishers are mostly Russians,Ukranians,then far behind comes Slovakia,Georgia,Belarus.there are a few western europe winners like Topi from Finland and Portela from Spain,but these guys win when there s not the top Russians like Gocha or Cindilliani.

probably Cobra,Brzenk and Sharon Remez would be exceptions if they compete the worlds with their top form.

[enginterzi]

at the last europeans all of my matches were against the eastern europeans,total was 13 matches.7 times russians,4 times belarussians 1 time georgian and the last s against bulgarian.my only real lose was against Gashevski,and it wasnt easy.

[Sol "Arm and Hammer"Ingram]

Hey guys Where is ABBOTT in the poll? I would maybe go..Brzenk-Klimenko-Abbott.........Zhanna has a "Feeling" tho for...Klimenko........LOL

[enginterzi]

Sol,it was my fault.for sure he is one of the 3 top 198s in US excluding John for he is above every armwrestler on where one can breathe.

[enginterzi]

how were the matches between Abbott-Selerais and Bongard generally.i remember that Bongard was usually winning over Selerais,but Selerais beat him last year in Vegas.but how does Jacob do against these two generally?

[Sol "Arm and Hammer"Ingram]

Engin.... Those guys would be able to give you a more accurate run down of how the matches went, but from what i know and read in past AAA Nationals results, Mike and Jacob have pulled throughout the years and mike had also won a few. But prior to Jacob taking time off for family planning, i believe he was getting the better of Mike ( Not Gospel though) Now Jacob has Much respect for these guys and he has not pulled Bonguard and i think he feels Kevin Bonguard could be the man to beat! I know from talking with Bonguard in vegas about Jacob, he also has alot of respect for him! You see Jacob won in Reno(WWC Championships) I would like to see posts from the pullers that watched these matches.. Thanks Sol

[enginterzi]

thx Sol.

[Jim Wagner]

Engin,
From what I have seen on vidoe Abbott seems to beat Mike in a hook, or hook to a press.

[enginterzi]

Mike used to have tough matches againt Robert Redden,he generally beat Redden with left arm but lost with right arm.

they all are great armwrestlers.
