Devon Larratt Shows Me How To DEFEAT Ermes!

Devon is able to pronate through Ermes wrist because in the setup Devon gets his elbow to the front of the pad, and with the longer lever and bigger hand he can get his webbing higher. This was why Ermes kept lifting his elbow and opening his hand and fouling out. At that first ready go in the straps, Ermes wrist was was already done for as soon as the go was called. Forcing him into the flop, once that that has happened a single time it's done for the entire super match. Did the same to Prudnik and to John. I dont think that strategy will work for Michael, he's too kind in the setup and his arm isn't as long or his hand as big. Michael just needs to do what he does best, stop the match, climb the hand and bleed him out. By all means get into Ermes head if you can. I dont think Devon can apply this tactic to someone like Vitaly, and I think he will have a hard time beating him. Levan too strong. I think everyone else isn't going to be able to beat it. Devon’s opponents need to make the ref move his elbow back to get the webbing even, otherwise Devon will have their wrist, and he's too skillful and too strong to lose to the press again since Genadi made him his fix his weakness. I'm not saying he's cheating, he's just bullying the setup which might be the most important skill in the game.

All you have to do is kings move him and then press him and that's it that's all you have to do

Devon arm wresting master class.

Think you can take Ermes. Is great to see you back healthy and doing well after the injury/surgery. Best wishes to you Michael 💪.

Being a pro elite arm wrestler and say “ i need to learn that stuff” talks gigantic miles on you King Mike. You will take this win i just know it 🫡

Ermes said he might lose to "kings move+endurance".

You guys all talk like these arm wrestlers are pokemon, all your stats dont mean shit cos when it comes down to the day, the STRONGEST man wins.

Everything going according to plan, now just have a move other than your conventional style just incase. Ermes is expecting you to do kings move only. Just watch out for his Press it's stronger than Genadi's and Genadi managed to press you once . Looking forward to Levan v Michael Todd💪🏻

You know you're going to win Michael.

One thing Michael- as you see Ermes is very susceptible to intimidation. I suggest you intimidate the living hell out of him in the setup. Scare him.

MICHAEL, I’m nobody from nowhere but Leslie honest you have only 30% out of hundred to beat Hermas the one where I would say one of the greatest but you never know the reality. Tell me what it is.

Ermes knows he can't beat you on endurance, so he'll probably go for a quick pin and use his side pressure. Be ready for it MMT!

Yes, Devon made a video on how to cheat in the strap setup, but you shouldn't try to cheat, imo.

No background music please

Mike I just find it crazy that you state your game plan so publicly a ways before the your match. Wouldn’t you want to surprise him?

But ur not devon ur michael🤣

I think in that round Ermes may have not applied his pronation at the right time and he tried to go to his side without that hand sync. To beat Devon's hand it seems you have to be in sync with your hand as much as your arm involving where to move, otherwise, you have Ermes. Height seems to also have been a hill to Ermes. Center table I believe will be pivotal in this match. The worst thing possible is either attacking Ermes and losing the hand, or Ermes attacking and coming over to press. My prediction, this may turn into an ugly match if it isn't dominating.

Devon Larratt is smarter than most of his opponents, his knowledge is better than anyone not named John Brzenk.

The reason Devon won was because the refs let him start at an advantage. His arm was completely vertical and he completely swallowed ermes thumb. This is what most people don’t see and says ”DEVON WAS WAY TO STRONG”, no, he had positional advantages right from the get go.

Now u do it MMT! U GOT THIS!

Im ready to watch this war. Good luck MMT. You look more focused than ever! Get it!

I believe stylistically you are a bad match for Levan, but not for Ermes unfortunately. Ermes thrives vs King's moves... But I might be wrong. Let's see how it goes.

Ermes always was and will forever be AVERAGE

MMT for president

Im sure you know this but after the match ermes spent along time talkin to devon an figuring out why he got destroyed, i would be surprised an disapointed if he hasnt fixed this gap in his game, im sure you can beat ermes but if you think for a second you can do the same thing devon did i would rethink it

dont underestimate ermes, especially his power, and his rise, without Devons trickery in the setup it would have been a more difficult match thats for sure, and Ermes is more than he was, in your corner for the win MMT

Where's the biceps vein?

I love the breakdown of the match! You should do more of these! Love seeing the your opinion and technicality of it

MMT is going to outpower and strategically outperform Ermes.

execute the pancake cheat code!!

I don't see Ermes winning this match. Michael will catch Ermes and has superior endurance.

If that clogged up nose is not from a cold, it's from the new cat...

I'm just a casual but really appreciate the high level technical analysis here. Thanks!

Nice comeback Mike. Looking very strong and mentally ready. Be rooting you on in this one. I see a new maturity in you. Should be a fun match for us fans. Go for it!

Michael has done it, he has found a new lane and leveled up.back as a top contender.

Another amazing video my friend and thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge

Michael, at a certain point when both elbows were up, you knew Devin was doing something in the strap setup, I can tell you what that is and exactly what he has done. PM me....

Looking forward to watching the event 🎉, I'm wishing you all the luck in the world mmt I'm sure you will do it ❤

Ermes already destroyed you when he weighed 90 kg, now he will eat you for breakfast

Hate I’m giving you another comment. So soft. Let your wife run the channel. Smile more when you lose… oh wait

Hey Michael are you Christian? I saw somthing you said in a past match telling me you are possibly Christian?

Mr. Todd. When did pronation, cupping, rising take over top roll, hook, posting? It’s like when all the alphabet people started with their dumb ass pronouns. Arm wrestling went along with it. So as far as I’m concerned, cupping is your pronouns. It’s actually called a hook. Good luck, sir.

I think Devon found the remaining weaknesses Ermes had and Ermes trained to get rid of them. So now Ermes is an even greater Beast than before.
But i'm also in for a great surprise Michael. You worked hard for this! 💪

when is the match against ermes?

You know what? A bad day is a bad day. Ermes is stronger. That said, gonna be an incredible match.

Nice video, Michael! I really like watching your analysis of arm wrestling.
