King of the table 12: the press conference

Auden claimed to be in the best shape of his life, highlighting his endurance and the progress made since his last match against James English. He reiterated his total commitment to arm wrestling, specifying that his training is now entirely focused on this discipline.

On the other hand, Korean Hulk admitted to only training arm wrestling 10 to 15 minutes after his powerlifting sessions. According to him, this is enough, because he believes that arm wrestling relies above all on raw strength, and that powerlifting develops the muscles essential for competition. He is part of a very select circle of five people in the world to have lifted more than 500 kg using a combination of the bench press and the shoulder press.

During the grip strength test, Auden Larratt didn't really play the game.

Serhii stressed that this match represents a real opportunity for him to break into the top 10 in the world. On the other hand, for Georgi, the pressure is palpable after two consecutive defeats. Having studied all of his fights, Serhii is convinced that he will teach him a lesson, promising to prove that Georgi is not the best toproller. He plans to break his wrist and flash pin him 4 times.

Georgi, for his part, responded by asserting that, despite Serhii's assurance, the reality will be very different at the arm wrestling table. He added that even in defeat, he still considers himself worthy of a top 10 spot and will continue to fight for the title. Defiantly, he told Serhii that he was looking forward to his ‘lesson’.

This is the sixth time that Devon Larratt is in the main event of a King of the Table. He explained that for his return to left-arm competition, he accepted the challenge against Leonidas for two reasons: money and his son Auden's participation in the event. Although he really likes Leonidas, Devon said that this match would be an easy and fun exercise for him, because according to him, Leonidas is still a beginner in arm wrestling.

For his part, Leonidas has undergone intense preparation and believes he would be able to beat all his personal records. He approaches the match without fear, emphasizing that he has nothing to lose, unlike Devon, who would risk a lot in the event of defeat against a beginner.
