Fight Dynamics of the Double Olympic Champion in Judo (1988, 1992)

The fight dynamics of the final contest of the two time Olympic champion in judo (Seoul 1988 and Barcelona 1992) Waldemar Legien was analyzed. A hypothesis, that the champion was markedly superior to his final contest’s opponents was confirmed. This supremacy was not only connected with correct selection of fighting means, but also with methods, which depended on the actual result of contest. Verification of this hypothesis by applying the methods of measurement of fighting dynamics by Kalina was accomplished (Kalina 2000).
