Expectedly, Daniel liked everything he saw, and he was impressed:

"As you know, I was on the Zloty Tur at first time. Prior to this, like all fans of armwrestling, I observed every year on the internet for what is happening in this tournament. I can say that live everything is more impressive: light and sound design, stage and other elements – all this emphasizes on the professional approach of the organization of this event! All of this has strengthened the impression of what was going on at the table, and there, of course, was for something to watch".

Daniel lost the weight and pulled in the category up to 70 kg. We believe that his debut was a success, it is the first attempt and he took silver on the left hand. The athlete is satisfied with his results:

"I am pleased. Despite the weight loosing (in the category up to 70 kg last time I fought at the European Championships in 2014), managed to save power, but there was bad impact on endurance. I have never fought with my rivals before Zloty Tur, but I can say that everybody is very decent, especially for this weight. Lithuanians surprised me, there were three in my category and I was fighting with each of them. Every of them puzzled me differently. To win, I did not have the strength of fingers, and in the fight for the finals on the left when the referee judges capture exacerbated this case with not close contact between the thumbs".

Zloty Tur remember beautiful fights. Each identified the most interesting fights and Daniel also made his choice:

"There was enough exciting fights, but I will single out the ones that took place in the ultimate: Krasimir Kostadinov – Genadi Kvikvinia, Rustam Babayev – Genadi Kvikvinia, Krasimir Kostadinov – Rustam Babayev. In a heavyweight good fight showed Trubin Dmitry and Andrey Pushkar. Of the athletes I remember Rustam Babayev with his unreal strength, Krasimir Kostandinov with wrist super-control and perseverance, Andrey Pushkar with prudence, Dmitry Trubin with sincerity, Vitaly Laletin and Hermes Gasparini with the ability to impose their struggle".

The end of the year is coming, and it means that for many athletes the competitive season has ended. But for Daniel there will be a start this year still:

"For me the last event of the season will be Moldova Open Cup, which would take place on December 18th. The tournament is supported by the Moldavian Armwrestling Federation, which was officially registered by the Ministry of Sports in August 2016. I am going to hold the weight and to pull in the category up to 70 kg. If all goes well and could win the category, I will fight in ultimate class".

That turned out to be the debut of Daniel in the best tournament in armwrestling. We will continue to monitor the success of this talented athlete. Stay with us and stay tuned to armpower.net.
