DMITRIJ IVANOV
Russia weightlifter, World and Europe Champion, multiple U.S.S.R. Champion, writer and journalist DMITRIJ IVANOV (Дмитрий Иванов, 1928 – 1993) was one of the initiators of the prohibition and of the prosecution of bodybuilding in the U.S.S.R.. His negatyve articles in press about bodybuilding much caused the prohibition since 1973 until 1987. As told by one of the U.S.S.R. bodybuilding pioneers GENADIJ BALDIN (Геннадий Балдин) the petition of DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS to defend bodybuilding caused many problems to DMITRIJ IVANOV. Then DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS by great risk personally brought this petition to Moscow to the U.S.S.R. Communist Part Headquarters (ЦК КПСС. C.C.C.P.). The prosecution of bodybuilding in the Socialist World started right after the International Weightlifting Federation F.I.H.C. stopped leading International bodybuilding in 1969. We would like to underline that F.I.H.C. led the official Bodybuilding sport since 1947.
