HISTORY AFTER THIRTY YEARS.

1989 FIRST BODYBUILDING CONTEST „USSR VERSUS USA“.

AMERICAN PIONEERS CAME TO USSR.

Ending the USSR and breaking the „Iron Wall“ the socialist countries joined  the democratic World. In 1989 the first bodybuilding contest between USSR and USA was organized in the USSR city of Leningrad (Матчевая встреча «СССР-США»). We will not speak about the competition itself as many participants of is did it many times. We will speak about the facts which remained unknown for thirty years.

That was the first time in the history when USA bodybuilders visited the USSR. Both sides made great preparations for the event. Organizers, trainers, athletes worked a lot. Also worked and special secret services, like KGB. Everybody expected that together with USA bodybuilders the owner and the President of the IFBB (International Federation of Body Builders) BEN WEIDER will visit the USSR too.

LOUIS ZWICK.

In 2002 President WFF-WBBF International (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation) DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS met his old friend American LOUIS ZWICK in German Stuttgart. At that time LOUIS ZWICK was a known organizer of International contests like “America Pageant”, “Fame”, “Hit the Rock” etc.. LOUIS ZWICK was not only organizer of these contests. He also was a producer of the television that was working at this event in Germany too. LOUIS ZWICK organized this competition as well as all other just to make a film of it and after to sell the reports to the American sport ESPN television.

INITIATOR OF THE 1989 BODYBUILDING CONTEST “SSSR VERSUS USA”.

In 2002 in Germany LOUIS ZWICK organized a very specific contest. He named it “European Championship”. He brought from America to Germany a number of athletes and all those athletes took first six places among top competitors. Participating German sportsmen were only like a decoration for Americans. Again the contest was filmed. The interviews of American athletes and some spectators were taken.

As DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS knew LOUIS ZWICK since 1989 first visit of the USA bodybuilders to the USSR both have spoken on various topics. Among them was the historic 1989 contest “USSR versus USA”. LOUIS ZWICK surprised saying he was the initiator from America side of this competition in1989. He was selecting every participant personally discussing the individual conditions of his participation in the USSR. Finally he collected the necessary team of bodybuilders. LOUIS ZWICK was taking a big financial risk. Having no his personal money LOUIS ZWICK rented the necessary money from the bank to pay all costs of the event from the American athletes side. Nobody knew what will happen…

RUNAWAYS.

At that time for a number of years the best USSR bodybuilder was VIKTORAS JUCYS from Klaipeda (Lithuania). It seemed he must participate against Americans in 1989 Leningrad competition.   But the plans of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS who was the trainer and sponsor of VIKTORAS JUCYS  were different. DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was thinking of his personal meeting with BEN WEIDER  and their discussion of the future plans of common work.  Both DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS and BEN WEIDR  were in close correspondence for long years and both were waiting for the moment of meeting.

At the backstage of the “USSR-USA” contest in Leningrad was a group of USA television men. They were filming the event. Speaking with one of them (later we learned that he was LOUIS ZWICK) DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS told him  that the best USSR bodybuilders ROLANDAS BUCINSKAS (Siauliai, Lithuania)  and VIKTORAS JUCYS are present at the event but they will not participate. LOUIS ZWICK was surprised about this and invited all three of us to shoot a film next day.

AMERICAN FILMS.

Next morning DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS took VIKTORAS JUCYS  and ROLANDAS BUCINSKAS down of the hotel to meet the LOUIS ZWICK  and his filming men. Americans explained that they are followed by people from secret services, like KGB and they want all of us to run away from them. Only then the filming will be free of political pressure and represent reality. So we did. We jumped into a free minibus “Latvia” which was close to the hotel and left. We went to a primitive old bodybuilding gym in the suburbs of Leningrad City. Nobody was there but few local athletes. An interview of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS was taken and training of VIKTORAS JUCYS  and ROLANDAS BUCINSKAS was filmed. LOUIS CWICK asked VIKTORAS JUCYS to end the filming with some words in English. Tought by DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS he said: “America – we will pump You up!”.

Later about the contest “USSR versus USA”, about training of the best USSR bodybuilders VIKTORAS JUCYS  and ROLANDAS BUCINSKAS, about the life in the USSR  LOUIS ZWICK made several films. Those films he successfully sold the  ESPN television in America and covered his expenses for the USA bodybuilding team. Later LOUIS ZWICK  sent those films to DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS (films are kept in the archives of the WFF-WBBF International).

TROJKA. INVITATION TO PARIS.

To meet BEN WEIDER DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS succeeded only after the contest “SSSR versus USA”. That was in restaurant “Trojka” where the organizers made a banquet for VIP Persons. Both DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS and BEN WEIDER  were sitting close together and had several hours to discuss the matters both of them planned to as both decided not to discuss this in their correspondence. Ending the discussion BEN WEIDER invited DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS to be his personal guest at the coming World Championship in Paris (France). And this happened as decided.

WORLD BODYBUILDING HISTORY.

MINISTER OF SPORT REPUBLIC POLAND.

In 2008 the WFF-WBBF International Federation (World Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation) was organizing the World Amateur Championship in Polish City Bydgoszcz. The preparation of the contest started a year before it. At once the organizers faced the negative reaction of the National Federation IFBB Poland. The President IFBB Poland (International Federation of Body Builders) PAWEL FILEBORN wrote the letter to the Major City Bydgoszcz KAZIMIERZ DOMBROWICZ  informing him that WFF-WBBF is illegal and has no juridical power to organize such a contest in Poland.

Then under the leadership of the President WFF-WBBF International DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS the official delegation to meet the Minister of Sport of the Republic Poland was organized. Together with the International President the delegation members were the National President WFF-WBBF Poland ANDRZEJ MACIJEWSKI, the Mecenat JERZY GOTOWSKI, the Vice Major City Bydgoszcz KAZIMIERZ DROZD.

The meeting of the WFF-WBBF delegation and the Minister of Sport of the Republic of Poland ZBIGNIEW PACELT was organized at the Headquarters of the Government Republic of Poland. There the WFF-WBBF juridical documents were presented to the Minister ZBIGNIEW PACELT. Among the documents were the documents about the WFF-WBBF International rights to organize competitions in all Countries of the World.

After evaluation of the situation the reaction of the Minister was quick. The Minister ZBIGNIEW PACELT issued the letter informing about the rights of the WFF-WBBF International Federation and that was the opening doors for the WFF-WBBF International activities in Poland. All misunderstandings of unfriendly people were finished.

WFF-WBBF HONOUR MEDAL FOR SPORT MINISTER POLAND.

During this official meeting at the Headquarters of the Government Republic of Poland the WFF-WBBF International Honour Silver Medal was proudly presented to the Minister ZBIGNIEW PACELT.

OFFICIAL MEETING AT THE PARLIAMENT REPUBLIC LITHUANIA.

Right before the2008  World Amateur Championship in Poland, the Major of the City Bydgoszcz KAZIMIERZ DOMBROWICZ with him accompanying Polish Officials was included in the delegation of the WFF-WBBF International which  took part at the 2008 Official Meeting at the Parliament of the Republic of Lithuania.
