It’s the morning of the day I’m supposed to arm wrestle Michael Selearis, and instead of cramming for my exam with a torrent of pushups, I’m watching a promotional video on YouTube in which he glares at the camera with a sweat towel draped over his neck, the scene interspersed with about 40 short clips of some very quick takedowns. Was that a chill I just felt? Maybe challenging the three-time world champion over the phone was a bad idea.
