EVW 25 in Batumi to feature Devon Larratt and Levan Saginashvili

EVW Sports is pushing EVW 25 for Aug. 1, 2026, in Batumi, Georgia, with Devon Larratt and Levan Saginashvili billed as special guests. That pairing instantly gives the show global weight, because Larratt and Saginashvili remain the sport’s most recognizable names and EVW is clearly using them to frame Batumi as more than another stop on the calendar.

The promotion’s Instagram profile makes the pitch plain: “EVW 25, August 1st 2026, Batumi, Georgia” and “World’s Best Armwrestling.” The account lists about 195,000 followers and 177 following, a sign of how much arm wrestling’s biggest cards now depend on social reach as much as federation channels, club networks, or regional posters. Fans are directed to evwsports.com for more information.

EVW’s own Facebook posts sharpen the message. One says, “LEVAN SAGINASHVILI & DEVON LARRATT are coming to EVW 25 in Georgia as our Special Guests!” Another frames the pair as “two of the biggest legends in armwrestling.” The language matters because EVW is not selling this as a routine lineup update. It is presenting the show as a marquee event built around the two athletes who most often draw casual attention outside the core arm-wrestling audience.

Batumi gives the card a clear setting with its own storyline. EVW-related promotional copy calls the city the “home of champions,” a nod to Georgia’s status in strength sports and to Saginashvili’s national profile. The choice of venue also helps EVW signal ambition: putting the event in Georgia ties the show to one of the sport’s strongest markets while giving the promotion a setting that can support a major international showcase.

The rest of EVW’s digital setup reinforces that scale. The website links out to YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, Reddit, TikTok and Discord, making EVW 25 a multi-platform property rather than a single announcement. Related promotional copy also says the show will feature “the biggest left-hand armwrestling match of all time,” a line that pushes the event toward legacy stakes instead of simple novelty.

Third-party pages have already started treating EVW 25 as a major date. No Limits Armwrestling lists East vs West 25 as live from Batumi on Aug. 1, 2026, and Gold’s Arm has an East vs West 25 results and full-card page with an EVW 25 PPV discount reference. With Larratt and Saginashvili attached, the Batumi show is being positioned as one of the defining events of the 2026 arm-wrestling calendar.
