I have heard a lot about this Great Puller, but i do not believe i have ever seen her! Does anyone have a shot of her in competition? If so can you post it. As i hear she may be once again competing!
Thanks Sol

Thanks Charlie........ I have never seen her, I heard a rumor that she has a win over Dot Jones? Is there any truth to this? How would she do now against the current ladies champ Joyce King.. Would that be a supermatch or what.

I do not know if there is a woman alive that could pin VIKA

No she hasn't pulled Dot. It would have been great to see them pull... If I had to choose I would guess that Dot would win with her toproll. Vika felt very strong inside but wasn't extremely dominant in the toproll. (EDIT: At least at the practise table when I pulled her.)
No disrespect to anyone, but in my opinion there have never been any women in the same caliber as Dot and Vika. Not sure about Liane Dufresne.. I think she has at least one win over Dot but I don't know if that was when Dot was in her prime or not.

Wow!!
I think Dot is definatly in a class alone, but i am impressed with the comments about the other two, So, should someone creat a SUPERMATCH here or what? This would be great idea to top off one of Travis's Supermatch...

I have NEVER EVER met a girl as strong as Vika Gabakova...The most interesting match in the history (with females) would be Vika and Dot Jones!!! It would be SOOOOO cool to see them pull against each other.
I´m so glad to hear that Vika is back in armwrestling again!!!
She´s a nice woman!!! And many of us have missed her alot since she stopped! It wasn´t the same without her.

From the times I saw Vika at Worlds she was so far ahead of her competition it was unreal. I imagine it would be hard to stay motivated at that level. Even John B. has someone nipping at his heals from time to time.
I did hear of a match between Vika and Dot that happened years ago but I think someone could have just been telling stories.

Gotta agree guys - Vika was awesome! and a real nice girl off the table - I believe she had a baby, and that why she stopped pulling. I've seen her pull with 65/70 Kg guys, and give them a good pull in the hook! Haha 'Ave it! It's great to see a picture of her again, but I have to make a kind request... Please Harry get rid of it - I can't stand to have that Fcuk'n Assehole DAVID SHEAD on here He's like a fcukin bad smell BANNISH DAVID SHEAD FROM OUR LIVES 4EVA  Please. At least just crop HIM off the shot. Do it for all your English friends Harry! |

This would really be a match Malin. Dot is a personal friend of mine and i know she has been busy filming a movie with Jon Bon Jovi in a National Lamthingy upcoming movie. She also has shoulder surgery. she was going to make it to my Superstar Showdown last July, but couldnt stop filming. She is an awesome lady. By the way, if you look over the videos of Petaluma (1983 i think) When she won her first worl title against Nora Huffman.. I was the Dude that came flying into the screen and jumped into her arm! She was jumping up and down with me at 175lbs on her!! It was a great time of celebration for her..I hope to have her at the next Event in July, She is a great lady!
