An unusually large team from the United States will visit this year's World Championship. Well-known armwrestler Vazgen Soghoyan is its team captain. He told about the plans and prospects of the team. ()
While I was surfing facebook, I began to notice more and more pictures of American armwrestlers who are going to pull at the championship in Bulgaria. Typically, the US team is not very big, but this year may be an exception. To verify the correctness, as well as to learn something specific, I contacted Vazgen Soghoyan, the captain of the US team. He said that this year the United States will be team pretty big:
"Our veterans ( masters, grand masters, etc) will be dominant , I'm sure. Today they are the best. In Seniors we have many first timers who are very interested in competing in World Championship and it will be a great experience for them. Also we have experienced athletes in this age group.
All Team USA Members will proudly represent the country in Bulgaria", – shared Vazgen.
As for the Vazgen, he is also not standing still and is preparing intensively: "My own trainings are going as scheduled, had a hard and serious preparation".
It is logical that after Vendetta all would like to see the continuation of the struggle between Vazgen and Hristo Delidzhakov, but my assumption about it was not justified: "I know that I might meet my opponent from Vendetta Hristo Delidjakov. But I prefer not to meet him there. He is very unpredictable, smart and strong! Let others have his experienceJ . Overall, I'm ready to compete there, in the one of most stacked weight class of 70kg".
We wish the US team a successful performance at the World Cup, and Vazgen - to show their best form in the struggle with many rivals!
