Originally set to take place in Istanbul - now in Vladikavkaz. The fifth installment of the Poddubny Wrestling League is set to take place at the end of July: 27th-29th. This event will be highlighted by the return of Sadulaev! and return of Sidakov (he last won the Yarygin in January). A 16-man tournament at 74kg and 97kg to determine who will be the representative at this year's World Championships in Serbia (again). Despite both Chermen Valiev and Alikhan Zhabrailov's victories at the Russian Nationals last month, both must take part in this mini tournament (as well as Sidakov & Sadulaev) to come out on top. Only then, will they be confirmed to be wrestling in The White Fenix. Although intriguing, I think it is safe to assume both Sidakov and Sadulaev will win the mini tournament and come out on top. Other announced matches: Abasgadzhi Magomedov vs. Ermakh Ormanoglu (Turkey) Ibragim Ibragimov vs. Vazgen Tevanyan (Armenia) Aslan Visaitov vs. Luis Alberto Orta Sanchez (Cuba - Olympic Champion) - Visaitov lost to Sanchez at the last PWL, but never mind... Artur Sargasyan vs. Mikheil Kajaia (Georgia/Serbia) Sergey Stepanov vs. Aik Mnatsakanyan (Armenia/Bulgaria) Akhmed Usmanov vs. Akhmad Magomedov (North Macedonia\Russia) Will post more matches as they are announced! Zaur Uguev is expected to wrestle at the event Poddubny Wrestling League 5 will feature the debut of the first ever American wrestler to wrestle at this league (Gilman? Richards? Who?) A match between two 51 year olds is expected to take place.. why not, I guess
