October 11, 2026

October 24, 2026 | Budapest, Hungary

The table is set. The rivalries are real. And some of the biggest names in arm wrestling are preparing for battle.

There are arm-wrestling tournaments.

And then there are events that make the entire community stop what they're doing and pay attention.

East vs. West 27 is shaping up to be one of those events.

On October 24, 2026, Budapest, Hungary, will welcome elite pullers from around the world for an evening of high-stakes competition, world championship battles, and matchups that have arm-wrestling fans talking.

Devon Larratt. Vitaly Laletin. Kamil Jablonski. Michael Todd. Dave Chaffee.

These aren't just names on a match card.

They're competitors who have spent years building reputations through strength, technique, determination, and battles at the table.

And on October 24, reputations won't win matches.

Pins will.

Devon Larratt vs. Ibragim Sagov: A Challenge Answered

If there's one matchup guaranteed to generate conversation, it's Devon Larratt versus Ibragim Sagov.

Following Sagov's dominant performance against Yordan Tsonev at East vs. West 25, he called out Larratt.

Now the challenge has become a scheduled match.

Larratt returns to the 115 kg division to face a competitor with serious momentum.

For fans, the intrigue goes beyond strength.

Can Sagov establish the kind of control that brought him success against Tsonev?

Or will Larratt's experience, hand control, endurance, and ability to adapt become the deciding factors?

Anyone familiar with Larratt knows that his matches can become battles of patience as much as power.

But Sagov isn't stepping up simply to share the spotlight.

He's coming to win.

One table. Two former heavyweight champions. Plenty to prove.

Vitaly Laletin vs. Kamil Jablonski: A World Title on the Line

When two elite super heavyweights meet, there's little room for error.

Vitaly Laletin and Kamil Jablonski are scheduled to compete for the right-arm super heavyweight world title.

Laletin brings extraordinary leverage and elite-level experience.

Jablonski enters with his own impressive record, including a victory over Georgi Tsvetkov at East vs. West 25.

For arm-wrestling enthusiasts, this is the kind of matchup where the smallest details matter.

Who controls the hand?

Who establishes the better position?

Can either athlete dictate the match from the start?

At this level, one mistake can change everything.

And when a world championship is at stake, every round matters.

Michael Todd vs. Dave Chaffee: Heavyweight Power Meets Experience

Two familiar American names are also preparing to face off.

Michael "Monster" Todd and Dave Chaffee are scheduled to compete for the interim right-arm heavyweight world title.

Both athletes have built careers competing against formidable opponents.

Todd is known for his distinctive approach to the table, endurance, and willingness to fight through difficult positions.

Chaffee has long been recognized for his tremendous pulling power.

It's a matchup that offers a fascinating contrast in styles.

Will explosive strength make the difference?

Or will positioning, endurance, and adjustments determine the outcome?

Whatever happens, this is a match that deserves the attention of serious arm-wrestling fans.

More Matches Worth Watching

Why Events Like East vs. West Matter

For longtime pullers, watching elite athletes compete is about more than entertainment.

It's an opportunity to study the sport at its highest level.

Watch the setup.

Pay attention to hand positioning.

Notice how athletes adjust when their initial attack doesn't work.

Look at the difference between a fast pin and a long, exhausting battle.

These are the details that separate casual arm wrestling from serious competition.

Events like East vs. West also introduce new audiences to a sport that deserves greater recognition.

A person who watches their first professional match this October might become the next competitor at a local club.

And that's how the sport continues to grow.
