Saginashvili beats Larratt again at East vs West 12 rematch

That second victory matters because Larratt is not just another opponent. He is one of the sport’s best-known names, a Canadian icon whose presence turns any superheavyweight match into a reference point, and Saginashvili has now beaten him twice. The first meeting made the rivalry famous; the second confirmed that the sport’s most marketable heavyweight showdown has shifted from a question of who might win to how far Saginashvili has separated himself from the field.

East vs West kept the matchup central to the event’s identity. The official full-match upload went up on April 25, 2024, five days after the bout, and the video title made the stakes explicit: a world title match between Devon Larratt and Levan Saginashvili. Larratt’s own site later posted the result on May 7, which kept the outcome in circulation well after the card ended.

The online reaction showed why the rematch still carries weight. Fan commentary kept returning to a foul call and to how Engin Terzi decides when to release matches, which is exactly the kind of detail that fuels armwrestling’s most watched headliners. The result was not just a win line on a card; it became another chapter in a rivalry that still gets argued over long after the straps come off.
