Kamil Jablonski versus Georgi Tsvetkov has the smell of a ranking match that secretly belongs to somebody else. Devon Larratt is waiting behind it.
The pairing is official for East vs West 25 on August 1. During the recent preview discussion, Robert Baxter floated the winner against Devon as a good idea. That remains matchmaking talk for now. Still, the logic is sitting right there on the table.
Kamil and Georgi attack two different pieces of Devon. Whoever wins gives us a cleaner look at which weakness deserves another serious test.
Kamil Brings The Ugly Door
Devon spent part of the preview roasting Georgi and treating Kamil with much more care. The difference was hard to miss. He even suggested a little more body weight would help if he had to pull Kamil around the 253-pound line.
That respect makes sense. Kamil’s flop press asks a nasty question of any puller who likes an open arm. He can surrender his wrist and keep driving his shoulder behind the hand. Pretty wrist control loses some of its value once the match turns into a chest and triceps problem.
The way Devon survived Vitaly showed how comfortable he can become in a stretched position. Kamil attacks that comfort from a different floor. He wants the shoulder close and the finish blunt. No long tax audit in the strap. Just a large Polish man trying to crawl through the arm.
Georgi Makes The Hand Miserable
Georgi offers a colder problem. His hand can feel like a block of damp concrete. He posts high, keeps his pronation and makes opponents pull through a wrist that refuses to look impressed.
Devon has solved Georgi before, yet the wrist battle produced real work. Georgi can force Devon to operate after losing some of the hand height he loves. That lane matters when every future Devon match gets dragged toward Levan talk within ten minutes.
Devon’s dismissal adds spice, though it should never replace the matchup. Georgi has heard enough jokes about regional pullers. A win over Kamil would answer them with the only language that holds up under straps.
The Winner Earns A Useful Headache
Kamil already lives inside the fantasy of a composite Levan challenger because the press is so awkward. Georgi carries a more traditional super-heavyweight wall. East vs West has grown by turning those style collisions into ranking consequences.
That makes Devon the right reward. Kamil would test whether his open defense can survive a committed press. Georgi would test whether Devon can keep winning after the wrist gets taxed early.
I prefer the Kamil version because it feels less familiar and slightly more dangerous. Devon can make a slow hand fight look like home cooking. A shoulder arriving behind a dumped wrist creates a different smell.
First they have to settle their own business. The winner leaves Batumi with more than a good result. He leaves with a problem carrying Devon Larratt’s name.

I was born in the 1980s, so like a lot of fans, Over the Top was my first introduction to pro arm wrestling. Years later, Devon Larratt’s YouTube channel pulled me back in, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Rewatching classic matches, following the modern supermatch hype, and keeping up with the personalities, rivalries, and culture that make arm wrestling so addictive.
