Their fight was dubbed „The Clash of the Titans”. This is no overstatement, as both fighters are about 2 meters tall, Alex weighing in at 113 kg and Tim at 140 kg.
Alexey Voevoda has returned to armwrestling after many years' break. His opponent at the table at the Vendetta in Vegas Armfight #45 was Tim Bresnan from USA. He defeated the Russian 5:1.
It went like I wanted it to go – says Bresnan. - I thought we will be evenly matched in style and strength, so i went for the hook. It was a hard fight, very straining for the arm. Alexey is a great champion, it was a pleasure to fight him.
These two opponents fought in +95 kg over 210 lbs Superheavyweight.
I was hoping for 6-0, but I received one foul. I'm happy it was only one. I am very glad with the win – says the American.
Tim Bresnan is the winner of three previous Vendettas.
On 12th July he faced Evgenyi Prudnik. The fight was to be a rematch for their meeting in 2013, when Tim lost in right arm, at the Nemiroff World Cup, by fouls. And although many have bet on Prudnyk to win, the win went to the veteran – Bresnan. The fight went 4:0 to Tim.
Then, at the Armfight #44 Bresnan met a Bulgarian wrestler – Krasimir Kostadinov. The outcome? 6:0 for Bresnan. The American beat his opponent mercilessly.
This time was no different. 5:1 in Bresnan – Voevoda, and the third win at Vendetta for Tim.
