80 Doping Tests – 24th European Armwrestling Championships 2014 EuroArm

Dopey has excellent news for clean armwrestlers. 🙂

” This year’s European Championships in Azerbaijan will see more restrictive drug testing.
More money – more possibilities.
The Azerbaijan Ministry of Sports and the EAF committee decided to allocate a certain amount of money for drug testing of contestants in this year’s European Championships.
Until now, usually some 40 tests were run, financed by the EAF. This time the numbers will double.
The president of WAF, Assen Hadjitorov, suggested to Igor Mazurenko in a telephone conversation to divide the testing phases thusly:
– Seniors who took 1st and 2nd places, 3rd places randomly; both left and right hand
– Females who took 1st places; 2nd and 3rd places randomly
– Juniors from 1st to 3rd places – randomly
The remaining tests will be divided randomly between men – 3rd places; women – 2nd and 3rd places and juniors from 1 – 3rd places. ” […]

What do you expect from entering the TOP 16?

I expect to come in as prepared as I possibly can be. I expect there will be a lot of surprises and upsets that nobody thought would happen. I expect the event to be the most incredible event ever assembled! Igor’s events are second to none!

Is entering the TOP 16 distinguishing to you? A chance to advance in the world of armwrestling?

Absolutely it is! If I win and keep my elbows on the pad this time against Denis, than I will become the number one in the world! That is my main focus! But there are so many other competitors that are involved, that can not be taken lightly. It wont be an easy road to Victory.

If not TOP 16, then what?

For me , I am involved in the Game of Arms, a reality TV show that is filming now and will be airing on the AMC network in February. It’s a show about the lives of the members of 5 arm wrestling teams competing to be the best. Very exciting to be a part of this.

Is TOP 16 going to witness the great return of A.Voyevoda? Do you think he’ll manage to stand up to the top armwrestlers?

Alexey Voevoda was awesome! I hope to pull him as well. Do I think he can compete with the best today? Not until he starts eating meat again!

” After you won, I spoke to many people who were very excited that you managed to beat the undefeated Cyplenkov. They spoke of you with enthusiasm and wished you to beat him again. Do you think this may be a symptom of the world getting tired of obvious favorites and constant domination of the contestant from the former USSR countries? Is it USA’s time now?

I think people like to root for the underdog. Denis had been put on a pedestal by everyone. Most people thought the man could not be beat. As I stated in our first interview I had a different opinion on the situation.

It’s your first time in Europe and bang! You make a great entrance and a lot of noise. Same with Tim Bresnan. You pulled an upset, and yet you were both very composed and peaceful, at least on the outside. What did you feel like inside? How great were your emotions?

I may have been calm on the outside but very different emotions on the inside. I was excited! I had just beat the number one armwrestler in the world! It’s that moment when you realize all your hard work has paid off! After I won, Everybody in the place congratulated me and wanted to get pictures taken with me. It was pretty crazy! Great feeling!

TOP 16 is coming soon. Beating Cyplenkov is a great taste of the things to come. What do you think the Americans are going to do there?

I think the Americans that are involved in the TOP 16 will do great.
