It takes a lot more endurance than I'm used to but I think I proved I can handle it with my showing against Trubin.

Do you think the experience gained in armfights gives an advantage in next fights and armwrestling career?

– I think it does. You have to learn your opponent as you go along and sometimes if plan A isn't working than it's time for plan B.  Sometimes your go to move isn't going to work so you have to switch it up. So, you gain great experience through each armfight.
