Canada's Beer Guzzling Arm Wrestler: Street Legends
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 มี.ค. 2017
- Street Legends is a three-part series that looks at athletes who dominate their niche sport while giving us a look at the duality of their lives. While they are hyped in the streets as "legends," they still go through the mundane tasks of everyday life. We see the trials and tribulations of our athletes as they try to take their careers to the next level, push their niche stardom as far as possible or just use their sport as an escape from the ordinary nature of day-to-day living.
In this episode, we meet Evan Bourgoin, an infamous arm wrestling figure who is defending his belt on the local circuit.

Nothing like drinking some beer after a long day of drinking beer
Alcoholics.
Best thing ever
The funniest part was near the end (it started around the 9min mark at the event) and they show the two contestants in the main event. First, they should Evan drinking from a glass of beer before going up for the main event....and while they are introducing Evan, his opponent is eating a chocolate bar. Hehehe That is one thing you can't knock about armwrestling....Zero fucks are given about what the outsiders say or think.
Evan is a contestant in Devon Larratt's, 'Bottom 8' tournament coming up in April in Ottawa. As long as he gets through his first match, I predict that he will win the whole thing. A lot o the guys in the tournament aren't' really pro level, but they all have stories. Some of the guys, like Evan, actually are really good. It should be an awesome even to watch. I'm in Nova Scotia and I am thinking about travelling to watch it live.
Michael R. Ryan Bowen owned everyone that day. It sucks they could not do Bottom 8 2 last month due to this Covid shit. I was actually Planning on going to Canada from the US to watch it. Oh well, hopefully we will get it sooner than later but who knows.
Devon Larrat: 'thats cute'
purehaecky lmao yup, I would love to see him compete in the states.
Alex Pacult yep, he is from Victoria Canada
All good buddies
Hed be eaten alive in the states
I form all my opinions on life in Canada from 2 sources. Vice and Trailer park boys.
Midwest Gamer GLHF ahahahaha I'm Canadian & find that so funny
You should watch Strange Brew and add that to the list.
Midwest Gamer GLHF don't forget letterkenney
Oh yeah thats a family classic. I know about jellies and hosers. Thanks for reminder.
Never heard of that.
He went from the kid that got bullied to a bully now
Southern Fun I’d love to see you true buddy, you’ll get knocked the fuck out
Southern Fun Evan beats the shit out of a lot of people. He likes to drink and fight, that’s his thing. He doesn’t mind getting the shit kicked out him either. He just gets back up with the same grit.
Just like Travis Bagent
Brayton Lepine except Travis isn’t street tough
Dude doesn't fight no scare on hand or face hes a bitch
I'm going to stop watching this video so I can return to sitting and listening to my beard grow.
Julian Boyce Lol
this episode of drinking with beards was brought to you by VICE SPORTS
He's what Canadians call a skid
Yeah he fuckin is.
So i get to see the internet trolling first hand then?
Sick.....
hahahaha
Hey Vice Sports! Can yall do a piece on the best Canadian Arm Wrestler Devon Larratt?!? Hes been world champ both hands and quite a character as well.
Yea, it baffles me why they picked beerman instead of Devon.
How did I miss this?? Congrats Evan on landing the Engin promotion pulling School Boy!
"if I get back under 200lb" lol come on bud, we know that ain't gonna happen.
See you in 3 years when this gets in your recommended
2 years ahead mate
Canada is a wonderland.
"im having a few beers and i dont have a problem"
Fuckin eh i love and am proud to be Canadian
The limo with all the pallets piled on top by the fire made me laugh. Pallets... in style. =D
I'm glad arm wresting night still is happening there.
We never missed a night and this was 33 years ago.
Ironworkers, rod busters, cement finishers, wood tics, wire pullers, roofers and lots military boys all having fun getting drunk and seeing who had more skill and force.
FUCK ALL THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS!
I’m from Canada. That guys brother is too Canadian. Swapping tires, cracking beers and lighting smokes on the side of the highway, fuck 😂😂
This was great nice to see someone so close to home making a name for themselves
11:22 holy shit.
Actually one of the nicest dudes I've ever met while being a bouncer. Super chill and hilarious
Drpolicebox who are you?
Bouncer from the Whitehouse Hotel in Peterborough Ontario. You guys had the arm wrestling competition there almost 3 years ago
Drpolicebox that was a fun event. good times
Name's Logan, and it was an amazing event. Such a cool sport to get to watch!
did you circle jerk?
I know this guy from a game on the internet! FML so much respect for him.
What game?
I really enjoyed that . good job
Being from Canada I can verify that it is essentially one great big subarctic trailer park. some still do live in igloos but most of us have moved into trailers /mobile homes. beer is cheaper than water and much safer too. our immigration policy is , 'if you can get here , youre in!' its just a wonderful, wonderful country getting better all the time
😂
This didn't age well
A man has rarely lied so much as Evan did here. lol.
1:03 funniest line ever
He knows he would get demolished professionally. That’s why he sticks to scrub league
No way man, he even trains when making mashed potatoes, a real fighter! ; Self descritption, : use incorect grammar and say stupid things. ;-)
Well, he IS the betting favorite going into Devon Larratt's, 'Bottom 8 Tournament' this April in Ottawa. hehe Open weight..no weight classes. $1000 cash prize. So the winner isn't getting rich.
...A gold coin valued at $1000 has been added to the winner's prize for the Botton 8 that is happening in about a month. Evan will dominate.
Michael R. I think it’s $2000 now. I believe Anna Mazurenko donated $1000 to show support for unifying leagues. There’s another $500 split between the two contestants who have the “most entertaining match.”
@@bjornragnarsson8692 - Ryan Bowen put up $1000 dollars from his 'Pound for Pound' league as the main cash prize, but then a donation of a Gold Coin, valued at $1000 dollars was made to add to the top prize. I have also heard that there are some side bets between some of the guys pulling as well. I know for a fact that Bowen and Chris Gobby have a $500 bet on a Let handed match after they pull with the right in the opening round of the tournament. That is easy money for Gobby. Like Chris says, Bowen is maybe a 2 (essentially an amateur) on Gobby's 1 to 5 rating scale hehe Sure, Bowen might beat him on the right, but he is goign to have like 30kg's on Gobby. Gobby's left is absolutely killer..especially when you consider that he only weighs like 73 kg (160 lbs) when he is in shape.
@@bjornragnarsson8692 - The biggest issue that Devon is going to run into with the Bottom 8 is having guys not being able to make it across the Canadian border. They all think that they are going to be able to get in, but none of them have made 'absolutely sure' that they won't have an issue. I've heard that Soublier might have an issue..and I know for a fact that Arten let his Russian passport expire and only has a Green card in the states. I think he will be okay...but there still is chance. I am Canadian and I have had American friends get turned away at the border and denied entry due to a fist fight that they had in 1984. I am not joking. I've heard of people getting turned away for just being arrested..and that arrest not turning into a conviction. But just being arrested 10 years earlier made them ineligible for entry. It is crazy sometimes. Devon just announced that Frank the bodybuilder he pulled in an exhibition at an Expo a few years ago, is going to be in attendance and serving as the alternate for the event. In my opinion, he should line up 2 or 3 alternates because I would bet money that someone isn't going to make it, get turned away or drop out at the last minute. I'd bet someone $100, if they wanted to make a bet.
all love but come on my guy talking he can't make under 200 cause he needs fuel to work.. meanwhile just swigging beers like water
"fuel for work"
James you are fuckin smokin! Sorry I had to
That guy jumping into the fire he the real beast
Does anyone know the title and the artist of the last song ?
Nicest angry guy I've ever seen.
Typically canadian
10:40 awwww Allen 💜
Please Vice, do a Devon Larratt video, he is awesome and could be a great form to compare the pro and the street arm wrestling it would be so great. Devon is great character.
13 minute arm wrestling video. 1 minute of arm wrestling. Good talk.
Evan Bourgoin is the fuckin man. Straight powerhouse
"I say stupid things..it amuses me".. 😂 im rite here with him on that one
It makes life fun lol
He's like the un-Canadian. Would fit right in a place like Texas or Alabama
He Can come on over to Alberta that is the Texas or Alabama of Canada.
I live in SW Ontario, these guys are exactly like some of my friends here
Actually he is like every Canadian. Except for the people who live in the middle of buttfuck nowhere and the newfies everyone in the world builds there stereotypes on. Yall gotta remember Canada is a fucking wilderness, the only nice people are the ones that hardly see other people other than there neighbors and east/west coasters. Id advise taking a trip to a Canadian city then see if your un-Canadian is the same as it was before.
We don't act like this in Alabama.
veryspoicy Berta is the best.
People are not trustworthy anymore. Truest words I’ve heard all week.
best thing ever i live down the road in ottawa and this is classic Canada right here !!
follow my channel for more classics
How come everybody who's a champion says they used to get bullied?
I live in Ottawa, my friend lives in Pembroke and is stationed at PET. This was way too close to home 😂
he is likely an awesome guy then
dude is canadian remind of a crazy dudes i know up un maryland!! arm wrestle that russian beast!!
The world champion is *DEVON LARATT* . This guy isn't even top 25 in Canada.
Hah, i've competed in tournaments and practiced with this guy :) Good ol canada
You know someones a boozer by the way they physically drink the booze. he doesnt even taste the beer . just down the hatch..
Face book trolling , beer and arm wrestling . I’m going to Canada ! Fuck yea !
my new Canadian best friend. Free as a drunken birded bird ! Bravo !
I had no idea about this guy...I turn this on and my parents house is in the background of the first shot. Weird
I fuckin love how this man and his clan live. Watching this helped me alot, not with arm wrestling, but how happiness only matters to whom the people one chooses to be surrounded by. that's just my opinion..Oh yeah..stay thirsty my friends.
Always thirsty.
He’s an alcoholic nothing to look up to here lol
I fucking love these DUDES why don't they have a show
11:22 Crazy moment!
Dude Vice sports has the best programming on TH-cam. Period the end.
I enjoyed it
now that i have my own channel im gonna change that
What a fucking legend. Rock on man!
putting out new dumb videos all the time now
Do what you want to do, because you WANT to do it, not because you need to do it. Once you do what you want, enjoyment of life is sooooo much easier.
8:11 Thumbnail, guy chugging some Busch. MMMMM!
He is still drinking beer and breaking arms if anyone is wondering 2/14/2020
Good times holding hands drinking beers
Wowwww.....this guy most be a badass, he drinks beer!
Dude your town looks like my town, also your steel toes are just like mine, but I can’t arm wrestle, why do the regular hardworking folk get the fuckin shaft ✊🏼
I love it! It's like me and my buddy! My buddy actually looks a lot like him! Work hard, play hard!
IS that Corinne? from Threadbanger? 11:57?
Pembroke, the armpit of Ontario.
Americanized 24/7/365...
If that's the armpit then Oshawa is the sweaty asshole
He thinks he can fight because he likes to arm wrestle and drink beer. (The blokes one smack bully)
Not sure what that means
Seems really chill
My first reaction was "wait Canada...?"
The 'Bottom 8' Tournament is approaching soon! I am very optimistic that Evan will take the winner's prize. $1000 dollars cash and a pretty 'weighty' gold coin is a very good prize for a tournament that was essentially put together to highlight the trolls of the sport. Evan is not only a troll, but he is also a very good arm wrestler. I'd give him a 4 on Chris Gobby's arm wrestler rating scale. Bottom 8 is is now looking like a better tournament than the actual 'Top 8', now with guys dropping out of the Top 8. Plus, with the WAL not allowing it's top guys like Larratt, Chaffee and Todd to compete, it is hard to call it the 'Top 8', in my opinion.
Bottom 8 is where the entertainment is! I suggest that everyone tunes in.
this dude will win the tourney though.........meanwhile levan will be laughing at all of it
How'd that work out for him? Hahaha the mouthy fuck got smashed.
@@joshuamichael4312 when?
IT is just too impressive. I had to stop watching or I would have passed out because of the cool factor. Dingleberries.
The us champ kicks his ass on the regular
11:18-11:28 so stupid
Adam Long The proper term is savage. But hey you look pretty tough from the other side of that screen
He'd be a savage if he shotgunned three beers in a row and didn't puke. Running into a fire is just stupid. Sorry you don't like my profile pic.
I do chug 3 beers at a time. look on my TH-cam page
+evan bourgoin Well I saw that you tried to chug four beers at once and puked... give ya props for trying it tho lol
Just watched the three beer chug, very impressive.
BEASTS!
big fish, small pond syndrome. you see guys like him in every sport. he beats the locals but on a big stage with the sharks he can't hang. I live in nyc and play handball. Theres a bunch of dudes who are the best players in their little parks but they dont play in tournaments or for big money because they are afraid of losing. But at the same time they still claim to be THE MAN. The character featured in this vid is exactly that. Beats all the bozos in whatever rathole bar he frequents but if guys like Devin Larratt, Travis Bagent, or even an over the hill John Bryznk come around hed get insta-pinned. But they most likely never will because back to my point- rathole bar. So he never truly gets tested and gets to continue saying hes the man.
I agree, he's a hero in his own small circle and takes comfort in that. Just an amatuer and why he's featured is a mystery, small communities all over the world have these people in all sports.
agree
Devon is a training partner
@@beermanbourgoinandhisbadco6794 did that help?
Took 0.001 milliseconds to beat that silence
I wanna see Travis Bageant do a number on this guy
I'd have a beer with the dude.
11:19 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not exactly sure how he is right and left arm Canadian champion when Devon Larrat would tear his arms off. Maybe he competes in a different, and much smaller, confederation maybe.
Denis tore Devon’s arm off
@@fireflames3639 we’re not even talking about that🤦♂️
Devon has held the belt I was pulling for in this video.
Different weight class dude. Devon is much larger than Evan.
next time he is in Toronto I'm going to have a beer with him and watch him kick some ass. seems like a good dude
Was that Allen Ford? From Canadian Wipeout? 😂
squad up
I want to move to Ontario now
Id drink beers with this guy
Come on over
This is the most Canadian thing ever
As a canadian
Adrian Kask no, this is the most ontario thing ever. Fucking ontario man...
Is Allan ford not in Ottawa anymore?
Allen Ford is in the video. I'm his coach
In case anyone is wondering that was a .30-.30 bullet.
Wait a minute! Who was that cutie with the glasses at 12:00 minutes? I love girls with glasses! ❤❤❤
Great biopic.
i love this guy
Honestly, I started watching this with an open mind, but it just turned out to be cringe.
this guy is a fucking legend
Got together a year ago and now have 5 children? 😂
This is awesome
I'll quote Dark syde B... "I have a beard, I do what I want."
Is he not willing to give 100% because he enjoys where he is at? Or is because he's scared that his 100% won't be enough? At the end of the day it seems he's content with just saying "I could've been the best if I had really tried."
Depends on what's more important to you. I armwrestle for fun because I enjoy it.
He's got one of those Ottawa Valley accents that sounds quite Irish at times, e.g. how he says 'haard'.
ya but fuck eh
We got back together a year ago and now we have 5 children....now that's some fucking....arms ain't the thing he's wrestling
Canadians remind me of a more gritty Utahn. I say that coming as a Utahn. Mountain men... we get it. Haha
These are what we call Hicks in Canada😂
"He once beat a guy in an armwrestling in a bar, with 2 FINGERS who the fook does that?!"
Wheres this at ...ill give u a go bro .... Grew up loving it and not beeing beat
Where at?
We can do it
And we are fuckin nuts down here
This guy is really cool
Hes a true canadian slamming beers and not caring
Always
