Gary Goodridge appearance

He’s present for this weekend’s East vs West arm-wrestling tournament. I’m assuming he’s just there as a guest as I doubt Gary can pull anymore.

World class arm wrestlers likely give world class handjobs.

I didn’t realize how good Gary was at arm wrestling until I got into it more this year.

I always assumed he was just a decent guy and they overplayed him being an arm wrestler because it was his gimmick.

But he has wins over brzenk and Cleve Dean. Impressive stuff

Was just wondering about him yesterday. Good stuff. I’m always rooting for him.

Happy to see Gary being well enough to be out and about.

Still haven’t read my autographed autobiography I bought off him, started it forever ago but need to get on that!

Agreed.

Back in the day he used to call the “Showdown Fightwear” gym because they were sponsoring him and he’d chat with whoever answered the phone for a bit.

Always funny.

I feel like a hundred years from now when they make a documentary about martial arts, the clip of him elbowing the guy in reverse crucifix will be in there.

Didn’t even notice he’s between Brzenk and Devon!

Total legend. I’m very glad he’s doing well.

This looks like a group of special needs adults out on a field trip.

And before any of you get mad, they do have retard strength.

Love the look on Big Daddy’s face here.

It’s like he is thinking, "Who the f@ck is that guy?"

I went on the road with a bunch of the old guard from the Gladiator Challenge, Amir, Jason Lambert (we were room mates and he used to watch cartoons and laugh like an imbecile) Joe Stephenson, Philip Miller, and several other guys who were there at the beginning. Amir told me his father was a gold medalist weightlifter in the olympics. He told me that when he got the call to fight Goodrich in Pride he took a bunch of mushrooms with Bas Rutten the night before and when they had faceoffs in the press conference he went nose to nose with Big Daddy and just laughed hysterically in his face because he was tore back from the shrooms
Obviously we all saw the whooping but he said that when he told the story to Big Daddy later he said that he (Big Daddy) was terrified because he thought maybe Amir knew somthing he didnt !! He said he couldnt sleep at all the night before the fight because of what Petey Williams just did to Mark Coleman and he thought Amir might do the same thing to him!!

He cornered a few people and they discussed how great he was in armwrestling…No idea what’s was going on here with Cobra however:

Lambert was a teammate at the time with Joe Stevenson, Philip Miller, Shawn Ramage, and several other guy who were fighting in KOTC and GC. Jason was one heck of a nice guy. He was a gentle giant. I think he went on to destroy Renato Sobral if my memory serves me correctly… that was a huge win at that point in Babalu’s career. I think mamy of the Combat Grappling guys would pray before fights as a team. It was a pretty tight family they had.
