There is a large age gap between those two, but both are top armwrestlers. On 12 th July they had a chance to face each other, at Armfight #43. Pushkar gave no chances to his opponent – he beat Lupkes every round. - I felt good before the fight, I trained hard – says Lupkes. – During the fight, in round one, I tried to pressure Andrey, but I have never experienced something like this. This guy is so strong, it’s a little scary. I wrestled many people in my 40 years of career, but Andrey is way stronger than any of them. Even in my top form, back in the 80’s, I’m not sure I coul have beaten him. Even though Lupkes prepared himself thoroughly for the Vendetta, he had no chances.
