VIDEO: Michael Todd vs. Dmitry Trubin debate, ARMFIGHT #45 Vendetta in Vegas

The video title (translated from Russian using Google Translate) is very funny: ” How to defeat the cunning Americans? Technique against monsters! “

This sounds like the Cold War is back… 🙂

Luckily for us, armwrestling is a very peaceful sport, the armwrestlers hug each other and send a lot of love, even after they lose or win… 🙂
