Gennady Kvikvinia’s hard fights # Armwrestling # Armpower.net

Levan Saginashvili vs Gennady Kvikvinia was almost the most anticipated event of the championship. How it was for Gennady to fight with a friend? ()

Gennady Kvikviniya never stops to amaze us. Upon his return, he twice became world champion on his right hand in the category of 110+. For the second year in a row, Gennady won gold in the final of his friend Levan Saginashvili. He can fight all styles and it looks like he scored a very good shape.

Incredible fight on the right hand again! But on the left that was not very good. Unsuccessful draw or old injuries?

- To be honest, it was not a surprise for me that I have won at this Worlds. Last year, as I said, I was not ready, but I trained seriously and I had strong motivation to win this year. I wanted to take revenge of all. It is a pity that at the right hand we didn’t met with Arif Ertem, but more importantly that everything went as I wanted.

On the left hand I had an injury in the elbow, and I could turn on all my strength, it very sore. When I was fighting with a Turkish Ertem, I felt that I could hold him, but when I tried to stop him, I heard a click in the joint.

How was your preparation for the championship? What did you pay attention mostly to – strength, endurance or technique?

- I have a lot of sparring, working on technique and endurance. And, of course, I paid a lot of attention to starts.

It is not the first time you meet with Levan at the table in a serious fight. What is it - to fight with a good friend?

– Our fight against Levan was not so easy meeting. Levan is very strong, and for me was the main fact was the motivation in this fight. Again, Levan is incredibly strong, and a fact that I had won made me very happy. Yes, we motivate each other great. We fought with a respect – we went to the biceps, and there we tried to find the strongest. No top rolls, no more something else, only hook and pulling.

How successful was the Georgian team this year as for you?

–  Yes, the team carried out its plan, at least. We took the first place, and the boys, of course, are pleased.

What's next? Zloty Tur?

– Of course, the next event is Zloty Tur. I want to pull well there, and what happens - the table shows. So far, I do know that Vilen Gabrava and me are going to go. We want to show maximum.

Sure, the Georgian team of professionals will perform as good as possible. And for Gennady we wish good recovery and exciting victories.
