Before the fight, I think the most important thing is to know with whom I fight side by side, I mean, to know well my teammates’ strengths and weaknesses, and, of course, to know that my armor is 100% operational, which makes me really confident. When I fight, I guess the most important thing is to be aware of the surroundings, make a mental image of the…
The armour for all my group and for me, too, was made here in Argentina. We make all our equipment for ourselves. We test different types of protection. The helmet that I use was the first klappviser we made. The shield has the colors of our country's flag and the logo of my group “VALHERJES”. The weapon I choose is a falchion, no very heavy, because I…
We don´t have a lot of secrets concerning our preparations for the HMB World Championship “Battle of the Nations”-2015. We just train hard, fight hard, and try to do our best on the lists. I am a coach on the battlefield, I am the guy who makes strategies, tactics and technically train the team. Andy Di Francesco is our captain, our team leader. She gave some tasks…
My team (“Pecari wildschweine Krieger”) is new to this sport, but we’ve achieved good results in every tournament held in Argentina. Our dream is to take part in the HMB World Championship “Battle of the Nations”-2015 in Prague. It will be our first time in this competition and we can`t wait to get there. I think that “Battle of the Nations” is the best HMB tournament in…
We are looking forward to the HMB World Championship “Battle of the Nations”-2015. It’s the new challenge for us. It can show who we are and we can see our weaknesses. We start fighting with the best opponents after two years of our participation in “Battle of the Nations”. We have a hard lot in front of us, but I think Argentina´s blood can do the best…
I think it is great that the World Championship is held in different countries every year because it helps different people to get acquainted with this beautiful sport. And, in our case, to learn about different countries and places. I know Prague is an amazing place. And I want to visit it. Marcos Villani, fighter of the National Team of Argentina Interview by Christina…
We are expecting to form two teams for “5 vs 5”. We have the people, but as before, the economic situation is no better. Also, we have two boys ready for “1 vs 1”, but their participation will depend on the final test, because they are more important for the “5 vs 5” category. By the way, this year I will represent Argentina in the “Triathlon” category,…
Experience obtained at the World Championship in HMB “Battle of the Nations”-2014 is so versatile. You get too much within a few days. It was great to spend time with fighters from different parts of the world. And all of them were so kind to explain things and share their fighting experience with us. Of course, this year’s participation wasn’t the first for us, we knew many things,…
MEMORY REMAINS “Battle of the Nations”-2014 A thing I remember best is the hospitality of the Italian team. They treated us like brothers-in-arms. I remember the two hardest fights we had against Team Italy. For me it was one of the most difficult fights in the whole tournament, because it was difficult to fight with them as they were our friends. I also remember our chance…

It is possible that in the future my children will take part in the ??? competition as fighters. They have it in their blood. They fight now. And they enjoy it so much. …
