COMPETING AGAINST HIS BROTHER
After competing in the same weight category at junior level, he and his twin brother Viktor decided not to compete in the same category at senior level. "Viktor and I began to train wrestling together. He is more successful than I am, he has more medals and better results. When we were kids we wrestled against each other often, but in 2009 we decided to change categories and no longer compete in the same category. We help each other a lot. When he sees that I am doing something wrong, he tells me how to correct it. He is 10 kilograms heavier so obviously, he is stronger than I am." (Blic Sport, 02 Feb 2020)
