Excerpt: Mariusz Zbigniew Pudzianowski (born on February 7, 1977 in Bia a Rawska) is a Polish former strongman and current mixed martial artist. His nickname in Poland is "Pudzian." During his career as a strongman, Pudzianowski won five World's Strongest Man titles-more than any other athlete-as well as two runner-up titles (including his most recent performance in the 32nd edition). In 2009, Pudzianowski debuted as a mixed martial artist. Mariusz Pudzianowski was born in Bia a Rawska, Poland. His father, Wojciech, was a weightlifter. Pudzianowski quickly became interested in sports. Since the age of 11, he has been training the Kyokushin style of karate. His current grade is 4th kyu green belt. He began strength training at the age of thirteen. When he was fifteen, Pudzianowski also started training boxing, quitting after seven years. Pudzianowski debuted in professional sports at the age of sixteen, taking part in Polish Weightlifting Championship, in the bench press event. In 2000 and 2001, Pudzianowski spent 19 months in prison for assault. In an interview, he said he wanted to stop a "local mafia boss," from physically abusing a young man. The man later accused Pudzianowski of assault and theft of a gold chain. Pudzianowski was incarcerated in prison in owicz. Several years later he arranged a resocialization meeting for the prisoners at the same penal institution. Pudzianowski during a strongman competition in 2009.On May 1, 1999...
