Larry Wheels\u2019 boxing match with Vitaly Zdorovetskiy at Brand Risk 15 ended without a winner after an apparent right biceps injury stopped Wheels from continuing.<\/p>\n

The co-main event took place Saturday, August 22, 2026, in Miami, Florida, under Austin McBroom vs. FaZe Temper. Brand Risk Promotions had listed the Wheels vs. Zdorovetskiy bout in its initial announcement and later included it on the full Brand Risk 15 fight card.<\/p>\n

The official result was a no contest<\/strong>. The exact severity of Wheels\u2019 injury has not been confirmed by Wheels or his team.<\/p>\n

Larry Wheels is the public name of Larry Williams<\/a>, born December 3, 1994. He is widely known as a powerlifter, bodybuilder, armwrestling figure, strength entertainer, and fitness influencer with a large social media following.<\/p>\n

Wheels grew up in New York, spent part of his teenage years in Saint Martin, and later returned to the United States. His rise came through training videos that showed unusually heavy lifts at a young age.<\/p>\n

Powerlifting made him famous first. At the 2020 Arnold, Wheels totaled 1,075.01 kilograms (2,370 pounds)<\/strong>, built from a 394.63-kilogram (870-pound) squat<\/strong>, 292.57-kilogram (645-pound) bench press<\/strong>, and 387.82-kilogram (855-pound) deadlift<\/strong>. Those numbers explain why his combat-sports appearances draw attention: fans want to see whether elite gym power carries over in a fight.<\/p>\n

He also moved into bodybuilding, where his size and muscularity made him a natural fit for the stage. FitnessVolt recently covered his Men\u2019s Open ambitions when Wheels teased a 300-plus-pound physique<\/a>, and his training with elite bodybuilders, including a superset arm session with Samson Dauda<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Wheels has also tested himself in armwrestling circles, strongman-style lifts, entertainment matches, and combat-sports content. Earlier this year, FitnessVolt covered the viral moment when Wheels slapped boxing influencer Deen the Great<\/a> during a heated stream appearance.<\/p>\n

Brand Risk 15 was another step in that crossover lane, and Wheels showed why his move into combat-sports content keeps drawing attention.<\/p>\n\n
