WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP 2007 (Russia)
World Champioship
Unforgetable!!!
It is the only word that comes to my mind to qualify this WABBA World Championship in Cancun, Mexico. Always caring for its athletes wellness, WABBA chose an exotic destination for its World Championship. All participants will definitely have unforgettable memories...
Every year, WABBA continues to propose a very high ranking Championship as well as cohesion inside its committee, respect for the athletes and offers an atmosphere never seen anywhere else...
It is a true federation of bodybuilding passionate, fitness addicts who, thanks to an outstanding organisation, could welcome its athletes in a corner of Heaven. Imagine yourself in such an atmosphere under the sun of Mexico, add that Mexicans are mad about bodybuilding and you get an explosive cocktail for an exceptional Championship.
As often at WABBA s, the Medium sizes set the place on fire... Invading the scene, warming up the public with their number and their quality... A close match won by the Hungarian Daniel Toth who is the first winner of this Championship. Â
Waiting for the junior category, we could admire the Miss Shape in evening dresses mind-blowing of beauty. Then, the youngest of the competition came: the Juniors. In this category, the Mexican Miguel Angel Estrada Penalozas victory was indisputable. Speaking of Juniors, note that the junior category will be stopped at WABBAs and replaced by a new category, called SUPER J24, open to the young over 24 years of age. Feel free to consult the regulations of this new category on the website www.wabbaworld.com. ANY TAKERS!!! THERE ARE PLACES TO TAKE!!!
Before the Men Body fitness, the Misses were back in bikini to dazzle ourselves with their irreproachable plastic ... But when the Body fitness came on stage, we immediately understood that the judges job would not be easy. But it is the Italian Lucian Di Pinto who played his game best to afford himself the luxury of stealing the first place to the European Champion in title, the Hungarian Laszlo Zombori.
The Miss Shape came back on stage one by one to execute their routine. Besides, we could notice that the difficulty in the sequences raises up in each Championship... it is not a stranger who won but the Hungarian Dora Szantai whom had made a lot of progress in the last few years left the accessit for the first step of the podium.
After the beauty, the Masters experience whom are accomplished athletes, most of them are used to competitions and are not impressed at all by the extremely hot atmosphere in the auditorium, especially because the Mexican athletes came with an impressive team... At their head, Eligio Campos, often well ranked, but never the winner. But tonight we are in Mexico and Eligio has been preparing himself for a long time for this competition. All his efforts permitted himself, under his numerous supporters screams and acclamations who had come in force, to become for the first time the World Champion in his country, It was pure madness in the auditorium.
During the break, excellent contacts were established between the Mexican public, the athletes and the different present delegations. But when everybody came back in the room, it became pure madness for the second time to congratulate once again the Mexican Eligio Campos victory in the Small sizes...
But the day was not over yet as it was the Misters and Misses Fitness turns. Body shaped with a knife along with impressive acrobatic routines, one by one, they took over from the others to compete with ability and harmony. In Mister Fitness, Mexico swept the three first places with leading Rafael Arriaga, winner of the best masculine routine. In Miss Fitness, Hungary won the podium with Orsolya Nagy, European champion in title, on the highest step of the podium just ahead of her compatriot, Zsuzsa Kellner, herself rewarded for the best female routine.
The Tall sizes finished off the Amateur competition. A category where the Russian Alexandr Poloznikov, vice European Champion, had a revenge to take... he managed to be ahead of the Hungarian Ferenc Kovacs by a small advantage.
To finish with, the apotheosis, the Professionals... There had been impressive rounds where athletes, one more massive and dried than the other, fighting like titans, alternating appearance round after round. The most called in appearance was the Hungarian Daniel Toth, brand new professional and the Guadeloupian Jean-Marc Claire, all two were dried and carved with an advantage for the Hungarian and despite his legendary line, despite the publics enthusiasm for Jean-Marc and its "Terminator", it is the Hungarian who won and became on the same day, World Champion in the Amateur Medium Sizes and Professional World Champion... Unique!!! Lets congratulate the excellent performance of our compatriot Mark Krah, who despite the apparition of cramps during his appearances, could lift himself up to the forth position of a really high level competition... Well done Mark and keep up the good work!
After all these emotions, all the participants, athletes, presidents, committee members and technicians as well as the local and national press, gathered for a friendly cocktail, to talk about the competition and exchange their impressions.
