Summary

[HookedOnFish_MI]

Loved the event, Engin! My only suggestion from a business perspective is to keep opposing views between you and Robert more private, since you are business partners and want to deliver a unified message.

I would have been very disappointed if Morozov and Devon did not armwrestle at all as we were led to believe they would at the press conference.

[argsgsgsgnngndg]

Well in the press conference i remember it was Morozov who called out Devon, he said:' 'Why pull Denis? Pull me.'' And you know Devon goes nuts when you challenge him

[Syntox]

Great event, but I feel like the people operating the camera, or the ones choosing replays and camera views, don’t know what’s happening at the event/table or what the commentators are saying.
The replay system felt like a fixed process, showing each angle once, but not the ones that were actually interesting. The commentators wanted to see specific camera angles in the replay, but I guess nobody was listening. Audio was better this time, or I got used to it. It is VERY important that we can hear the people at the table. That's a must-have.

Just in case nobody else noticed it: This time there was no table audio (microphones), I couldn't really hear what the athletes and refs were talking at the table.

[StonedGamer]

I saw that part Engin, you was so upset that you spoke turk to Devon 😂

[leeashernolan]

confused. what exactly did devon do wrong? they were both messing around pulling each other. no one pushed or hit anyone that I saw. seemed like morozov simply got angry for some reason.

[TimWong]

This should have been addressed at the press conference. No match between Devon and Artyom until a future event so there can be promotion and marketing. And there can be preparation for Devon and Artyom. Instead, this happened. I don't blame Devon at all.

[chrislastname]

No big deal, just Devon having fun. I think the weight cut and subsequent refueling made him a little extra Devon.

[Paul_Strength]

Phenomenal event Engin! Everything is good, the last part didn't effect anything in my eyes to be honest. It's a solid 10/10

[razzinijj]

Morozow shouldn’t play games if he can’t handle it.
Great event.
I loved the ending. Pure chaos. Reminds me of McGregor vs Khabib❤

[MartinIT-gwnq]

Hey Engin, it was an absolutely great event. Thanks for that! To be honest, I really enjoyed the ending as well. It's fine if people don't like each other—it adds some extra heat, and I'm into it! Just make sure to get some security guy next time

[JTS]

are there written rules for code of conduct at east vs west? if not, Robert cant fine Devon if it isnt against the rules. plus u let them grip up, even after seeing Devon vs Oleg

[laztavus]

lots of people loved it, great card, the aftermath, if Devon and Morozov pull it will be your biggest event ever

[AndreLA]

Devon’s adrenaline was good. Perfect ending of the card.

[zxdriver]

Engin your a good hearted guy. Thanks for all you do.

[maulstar]

Tough situation. There’s been a lot of negative feedback towards Devon. He’s not a bad guy I think he’ll make the necessary change going forward without a fine.

[fbs]

Still, it was a great event. I enjoyed it very much, even though the ending was a little dramatic. Sometimes that's good for the views. 😉 My favorite matches were Todd vs. Yoshinobu (this one was a big surprise; I hope to see Yoshinobu again) and Michael vs. Genadi. Thank you, Engin, for everything you're doing!

The thing with all the devon stuff is this, he is basically tapping into his military alter ego for competition. He even talked about this. During war or other survival situations, people often need to create a separate personality that can just do what needs to be done in order to survive. A false self basically.
This isnt some spiritual esoteric nonsense but a very real psychological phenomenon.
This combat devon ego was born during his military time and so at the table he switches to it in order to win, to destroy his opponent no matter what.
In war there is no space for unnecessary emotions or morality, all that matters is winning / surviving.
Thats why devon basically becomes a different human in competition and why such things happen.
When hes in that particular state then there is only that, until hes normal devon again. Its pretty black an white.
This doesnt really excuse anything but its important to understand.

[alexadavidovic]

So we just gonna talk about how Devon did Devon things, probably even less so then against Chance Shaw, and not about how Maiorov was robbed... Kind off fishy. Coach Ray acting weird, Engin not mentioning it, everybody focusing on Devon. I swear the Devon thing almost sounds like a welcomed smoke screen from a CLEARLY rigged match. JUSTICE FOR MAIOROV
