Schoolboy vs Ryan Bowen ｜ King Of The Table 11 Full Match

The power lies between these two athletes. We're set for best of seven, optionally to pull two more rounds if both athletes agree to fulfill all six. Let's see the first round will tell us the tale. Ryan said he was ready to make this ugly, to make it into a match. Loading up on schoolboy's hand fully. Try to fill it up and get the rise. We can see the size difference just on the rising part there as well. I like schoolboy's setup here. Looks very confident. Yeah. Wrist went a little bit backwards, much more slower. Didn't really fight it and okay we have an elbow fall for Ryan Bowen. Elbow came off the pad. Ryan went straight into that open arm position. Well that power just came through. It's going to be big trouble now for Ryan Bowen in this position. Schoolboy just came with absolute power in that first round. But he didn't secure position with the hand and every time Ryan got in that position he said he specifically worked for it. So we're seeing it in action right now. So Ryan got a stop, end of the end of the pin pad, got a foul. Let's see if schoolboy can get a better hand control. This time fully hits. We didn't see it from our angle and he takes the one. This is a little bit as expected. For me the power level should have been higher for schoolboy. We see it here right from the start. Ryan cannot fight him in any position. Hand, back pressure, pronation. Schoolboy is better but it will come down. He still needs to take three more rounds and that's the real challenge. Yeah that was a great start from schoolboy. Great hit, great pressure and the confidence that schoolboys need. We've seen schoolboy matches before take early rounds and then drop off. So now I want to see Ryan's arm wrestling IQ. That's a shock to the system getting flush pin in round one. So now it's a matter of where's Ryan going to adjust. Is he going to stay with his same game plan and he thinks that's where the right place is going to go or is Ryan going to change and try and test against schoolboy. He needs something now come round two. He definitely needs something. Again they both agreed start every single match in the straps and go straight from the straps. If I was Ryan, yeah there might be problems if you want to slip with someone much taller and with a bigger hand than you are. But if you want to work schoolboy out you need to take out his hand and I think his hand right now is still looking pretty fresh even though Ryan got those two great stops at the end or maybe three even. So if you're Ryan now, do you start in straps? You had your gentleman's agreement. You've just been flush pin. Do you start in straps round two? No they're not going to. It doesn't look like that. So all the gentleman agreement is out of the door. Well they did start in straps. They were a man of their word and that's what they did round one and I'm seeing Ryan going a bit a bit lower in there. I wonder how he's going to try and tire out the hand. Even a little bit not that great for Ryan. He might take a lot more damage but he will at least give some damage to Alex. So here we go. They're at the table now. Look at the calmness. Schoolboy looks very calm. I feel like Ryan's looking for referee's grip. He gets it. And he's got it there. So referee's grip coming up. Be very interesting now. Where does Ryan go? He's going for outside the straps. Can he tire out Alex's hand? But yeah, Alex is just, his body language is a lot better than we've seen in previous matches. He is looking very confident that he can get three more pins. He's looking very very calm. Yes. He said he dropped the weight. He worked on his endurance. Not only like for armwrestling but also general endurance. Did a lot more pulling for this one. We're waiting for the go. Here we go. Ready. Go. Bang. There it is and it's tiring out and it looks like Ryan might have come off the back of the pad there. So yeah, we've got one elbow foul off the back of the pad. But yeah, schoolboy holding on. So very interesting concept. I think what Ryan's trying to do now by going, so they're going straight to the straps. One elbow foul on Ryan. I think Ryan's strategy now is to just tire out schoolboy. So start outside the straps. Tire him. Make him work a bit and then hopefully in those later rounds come back and get in that locked position that he likes. Yeah, you always want to tire out the bigger guy and schoolboy is the bigger man here. But he looks very very calm. Very very ready. On the first go when they started he kind of stayed in the center. He didn't, he wasn't attacking because that was a pitfall of his last match. So this time he was very calm and he tried to finish and then he did a second hit. But we're still in a round number two. Ryan Bowen, schoolboy. Here we go. Round number two. Thumbs are getting ready to be closed. Can Ryan hold on? Can he maintain this power that is the schoolboy who soon might be the graduate? Don't move. Go! Bang! There's a hit and we do have that. Very good stuff. Very good stuff from Ryan. Now can Ryan keep his elbow on the back of the pad? Wow! That readjustment, that re-grip from schoolboy was spectacular. And he's just come in and gone. Ryan is getting a little bite. He's getting little bits and little. He has, we know Ryan is sticky. That is a saying on the streets. Ryan is sticky. But right now he needs to be also smart not to overexpose himself to some positions. Again his arm was fully stretched out in here. Yeah that was full stretched out. Palm up which is never good. But it's that nice re-grip. Nice re-grip and nice finish. Yeah that was brilliant by schoolboy to maintain and just to have the composure. Because usually sometimes Ryan, you know better than others. You've been in a lot of battles. When you're stuck there and you just want to win on raw power. You forget about re-gripping hand position and things like that. Schoolboy pulled like an arm wrestler. Because he's an arm wrestler first. YouTuber second. And it just showed them the intelligence on the table to re-grip. Hit the hand and we're Let's see how this continues. Right now Ryan has some options in my opinion. He keeps working. Schoolboy is really powerful. Really explosive from the go. Doesn't have the best endurance. And I think if Ryan wants to turn this match around that's what he can do. He got good stopping power on the start. I think Ryan in his preparation really expected that schoolboy will go for a hook. And even now he's setting up low hand. Trying to block the small finger of schoolboy. Trying to neglect him the positioning on his pronator. Problem is he's going over it. So they are going straight into the straps round three. So Ryan must feel he's got a bit of purchase. Ryan thinks he's now found a lane in order for this match to go. Can Ryan protect his pronator to get into the position that he wants to wants to get to. It has been difficult and schoolboy has been very impressive. So it'll be very interesting to see if Ryan can really just hold on. Because that is a big size of schoolboy. Six five and came in quite heavy. I mean he has lost weight but he has he's still heavier than Ryan. So round number three. Oh here we go. Let's see last time it was referee's grip. I think if Ryan can. Ryan should go for another referee's grip. Yes he's trying to get that climbing climbing climbing. And I think it's going to be referee's grip. So now unfortunately buckle side for Ryan. And that's the way it started. But once again that demeanor. I'm big on body language. And the demeanor of schoolboy is one of the best I've ever seen at the moment. He just looked for his brother. Alex Toprol is there shouting some instructions. I heard from the silence. He said look for the knuckles. See again. Is this the moment. The worst part is Ryan is not noticing it. I think but Ryan wants it in a different position. He wants to be lead one who leads the dance. There's more So here we go. Round number two. Ryan said his hand is cramping. Close your first. Don't pull. Don't pull. Okay. Follow me. Here we go. Thumbs are closed. Waiting for the goal. Ready. Go. Bang. That's a great position there from schoolboy. Oh was that a pin there. Ryan's gone full deep now. Wow. How is he holding on to there. But that has there. Three nil for schoolboy. Very impressive for Ryan to somehow stop it. Ray. It's do or die now. What does Ryan do in order to try and salvage this match. I think like there's no option right now. Changing style. So going inside will not do nothing. He had some success here at stopping but it like it is a desperation move. It is like you're desperate to stay in this match. If he can do this and stay a little bit higher maybe turn his body a little bit more sideways. How to say rotate out then then he will maybe have some success. But right now schoolboy is much stronger in almost any fundamental we're talking about. So here we go. So round number four as Lachlan Adair's in Ryan Bowen's corner. Just trying to figure out what Ryan Bowen can do. He wanted to be the principal in this one but the schoolboy is becoming more of a graduate. The schoolboy is becoming the school bus as many have seen and it is dominant now. I know whether you support Ryan Bowen or not. Like a lot of people are expecting schoolboy to power through Ryan and that's what we're just seeing at the moment. So Ryan's hand position maybe need to rise a bit more. I like he seems better when he starts in the referee's grip. So let's see where he goes round four. This is the moment and this is what sport is all about. This is when you watch the movies you're down three nil you know you're down by four goals or whatever and it's now looking inside. It's now a matter of inside the mind and inside the heart of Ryan Bowen. Where does Ryan go from here? Ryan needs to really adjust and this is it now. He wanted to come back to the big stage. He's back on the big stage. So now it's a matter of showing everyone he deserves to be on the big stage. So there's a lot of big questions that's going to be answered in about one minute. The one is I know Ryan Bowen. I know right now he will swing for defenses and he will try his best to get something done. On the other hand for schoolboy it's a choice. Do I try to end this quickly and maybe get in trap said by Ryan Bowen or do I be patient and patiently trying to control this match not allow Ryan to get on some of these positions he wants to get in. Okay so as they don't know right now. So this is it. Round number four. Let's do or die now. Three nil down. Here we go. Ready. Missed the start there. He's lost his hand now. So he's just going to pull through the strap. And that's okay. I feel like they're going to pull more. Yeah I think they both just made agreement. Let's do more. Well the way schoolboy's confidence is. Why not? So it looks like they're going as we look at the replay here. Ryan made the stops but I think once he lost his hand that was it. Schoolboy was able to get on top. Use the power and then you see there that one last drive. It's the pad. Schoolboy is your winner and they're both going to go some more rounds. So congratulations Alexander. Schoolboy is there with his brothers and they'll be very happy. So then now Ray. Before we get into the other rounds. Who does schoolboy pull next? That's the real question. He said his goal was to be top 10 top 20 super heavyweight in next two three years. So and he is a super heavyweight. So he needs to start to look at that he needs to look at that class. We saw center table strength. He is much much stronger than Ryan. Ryan has a king's move. A lot of athletes don't have this sticky point. This ability to be fully stretched out and still be in a match. So if you're looking at Ryan being there and thinking like well you know some heavyweights can do that. Not a lot of athletes on the planet can do that. Right now for Alexander it's a real question. Whoever he wants to face. Whatever goal he has set his mind to and he should do it. So let's see straight into the strap. So if you're in a position now that is Alex. Are you just still going through and just powering through Ryan and just showing pure dominance or are you going to try and hook Ryan? Are you Well I think at this point he has nothing to lose. Even if he loses any of these rounds they're just literally playing around. Alex has finished this match. This match is over. It's 4-0. Right now it's just I think courtesy for Ryan just to test some things out. And it looks like they're going to go inside. I don't know if Ryan will jump in a hook. Ryan also jumps in a hook. So this is good. A bit of and the power has come through there. He's just rocking the boat and Ryan's somehow getting a stop. But it looks like the power is just a bit too much. And schoolboy. Hook out of straps. And they're just having to discuss. Schoolboy. There's too much power inside and outside. Side and all. Alexander goes and it looks like they're going for a six. They're going to pull all six here. Bit of bonus footage for everyone watching at home. And thank you all for joining us on the pay-per-view. Core Sports. There's our next match. Georgy Zarenov. Rivers Las Vegas. Rivers La Tudze. Some man mountains ready to go at it. As Ryan Bowen and schoolboy get ready. Yeah we have some big big boys coming after this match. So a little bit more left. It's going to be brilliant. Schoolboy came in calm. Came in collected. And yeah his power was just something else today. Just a bit too much. So Ryan came in about 107 kilos. What do we reckon Ryan? Try and cut back to 100. Do you think that's where he's comfortable? 105 kilos right now this class. I feel like it's made for Ryan. He can stay there and maybe later. Later that's kind of his plan to drop down to 95. He could maybe do it. But right now I think he can kind of grow into this class and and start taking some names in that in the class that he is in. I know everyone loves to use Ryan and pull him in different matches. Some fun matches. But this guy also has some goals and I don't see him reaching those goals if he doesn't pull in his class versus strongest armwrestlers right there at 105 kilos. Good call Ray. So here go into the sixth round as they apply the strap here. Our first of seven matches and of course your main event. Left arm super heavyweight championship of the world. Ivan Matyushenko the hook master taking on the Terminator. Artyom Morozov. That match is going to headline this fantastic pay-per-view. And I can't wait for that. And I can't wait for every match on this card. And I was hoping for a bit more of a battle in this one. Coach Ray that's unfortunately schoolboy too big and too strong. So let's get ready. Round six. Ryan is setting up either for a press or for a hook. Coming with his shoulder all the way forward. But he could also be deceiving and he can jump in an open. But no. I feel like his shoulder coming in. Rotating in. He will try to jump with the press. Let's see. And Ryan gets it. Turns it. One running foul on Ryan. Very good. So close. What? Three running fouls on Ryan. You don't have to be dead to be stiff Ray. But hey. Yeah. That's it there. And we've got it. I'd love to check a replay on that one. But I'm gonna head to the stage.
