On February 26 in Las Vegas (USA) will take place  the Fight of the World armwrestling Giants -  Alexey Voevoda, Russia and Tim Bresnan, U.S.A. This Armfight is being eagerly awaited by fans of both Stars worldwide. After all, in essence, it will mark the comeback of the invincible Voevoda to the Arm-sport.

We can say that this return is the most anticipated in the history of our sport - said the president of the Professional Armwrestling League (PAL) Igor Mazurenko. - We have made every effort to ensure that this historic event would take place as soon as possible.

Alex Voevoda is a unique athlete who stays in armwrestling history as a Russian hero who had been leading in the world rankings for many years and left armwrestling undefeated. Even after the long break, the videos of his fights are the source of inspiration and master classes for many thousands of armrestlers worldwide. Classics of the genre became his brilliant victory over the legendary American John Brzenk, who was considered an invincible champion and who even became the prototype of the hero of the Over The Top movie played by Sylvester Stallone.

When Alex decided to try himself in the Olympic sport of bobsledding it was a real loss for his armwrestling fans. Despite the impressive list of all his conceivable achievements in bobsled, including double Olympic gold, loyal fans around the world waited patiently for the return of their idol to armwrestling.

It took a long time for promoters to find a decent competitor for Alexey. Few dared to fight with the Hero from Sochi, Russia unpredictable for the opponent and known for his will to win. The challenge was accepted by the American armwrestling Star Tim Bresnan. Their fight has already been called The Battle of the Giants. This is not exaggeration. With the height of both competitors about two meters, Alexey’s weight is 113 kg, and Tim Bresnan’s weighs nearly 140 kg.

Even Hollywood didn’t remain indifferent to this fight. A cult film director, Oscar winner, Louie Psihoyos will shoot the duel for his new documentary. Louie has been watching the career of Alexey Voevoda known as one of the prominent vegetarian in the world for a long time.
