Ahola in Iran

by Randall J. Strossen, IronMind Enterprises, Inc. © 2001

Jouko Ahola confirmed for IronMind today that he is planning to do several events in the upcoming Iranian strongman competition.

Ahola, two-time World's Strongest Man winner, said that while he will not do the entire contest, he does, in fact, plan to do a few of the events. Ahola fans should not read this as a return of their hero to the strongman wars, though. "Never say never," said Ahola, but for now, at least, he is very happy in his new roles.
