Eduardo Tiete: «78 kg level is very high» # Armwrestling # Armpower.net

This year we have a Brazilian team at Zloty Tur. One of the strongest world armwrestlers from Brazil – Eduardo Tiete – is ready to fight and show his best at the tournament.

Eduardo, what's up? Are you getting ready for Zloty Tur?

– I have 3 months of preparation for Zloty Tur, despite the injuries I had on my right shoulder at the beginning of the year, today I feel very good.

Do you already know your rivals?

– I know of some athletes that I will find in the category of 78kg but I am not doing a specific preparation for each one of them and training a lot to get well in the event.

Who do you think would be your toughest rival?

– I think it's difficult to just talk about an athlete knowing that the level of this category will be very high, with top athletes like Doug Erlich, Mantas Asmonas, Dawid Bartosiewich and Shynbolat Raikhanov, I'm sure all these athletes are very well trained for the Zloty and so do I.

I saw you have a pro-league in Brazil. Talk about it, please. Does anyone in this league go to Zloty Tur?

– Yes, I have a league in Brazil considered the largest in Latin America with an average of 150 to 200 athletes registered per event. The athletes that are traveling with me are participants of my events but they are not the champions of the categories. The top athletes in Brazil are without financial resources or sponsorship to pay for the trip to Poland. This year we are going in 8 athletes but I will work to take 20 athletes in 2017.

We are hope that Brazilian armwrestling will find a good support and next year we’ll see more talented sportsmen taking part in different amateur and pro-events. And now we want to wish Eduardo good luck in reaching his goal at Zloty Tur in Rumia, Poland.
