Welcome, Avilie
Avilie, this page was written for you and your family — to show clearly and honestly what a career as a Pound for Pound Brand Athlete can look like.
Becoming the Indian Youth Champion of Champions is not luck. It is the result of discipline, talent, and the support of a family that believes in you. We see that clearly — and that is exactly why we are reaching out to you directly.
This page is not a sales pitch. It is an honest, professional explanation of an opportunity: what it offers, what it asks of you, and how it protects your freedom every step of the way. We want you and your parents to read it carefully, ask hard questions, and make the decision that is right for your future.
Winning at home proves you are good. But the real path to making armwrestling a sustainable career is through global recognition — not domestic success alone. A career is built when the world knows your name.
Pound for Pound runs three professional events annually — consistent, high-quality stages where serious athletes compete and are seen.
To gain global recognition, you must face internationally recognised athletes from other countries. We create those matchups — the kind that build a reputation beyond India.
Through our events, content, and promotion, we give brand athletes consistent opportunities to tell their story to people far beyond their home federation.
A Pound for Pound Brand Athlete is treated as a professional and a partner — not just a competitor. Here is what that gives you.
Three professional events a year, with international opponents, putting your name in front of a worldwide armwrestling audience.
Companies and sponsors hire athletes with a strong story and identity. We give you consistent platforms — events, content, and promotion — to tell yours.
You build your own brand on social media — one that belongs to you, follows you for life, and opens doors to commercial sponsorship.
A real monthly salary and a structured calendar, so you can train and compete with the stability of a professional, not the uncertainty of an amateur.
Leaving the comfort of the amateur federation is a serious decision, and your caution is completely understandable. Here are straight answers to the questions that matter most.
Is Avilie giving up his place in the sport?
No. He is adding to his path, not closing any door. A professional opportunity sits alongside his talent — it does not erase his standing or his future in the sport.
Will he be restricted from competing where he wants?
Never. Avilie will always be free to compete in any event or federation he chooses. We do not lock athletes down — we open them up to the world.
Is the amateur system enough for a real career?
The amateur system is a wonderful place to grow, but careers are built on global recognition and commercial support. We help Avilie take the next professional step while keeping everything he has already earned.
Is this a stable, professional arrangement?
Yes. A fixed monthly salary, a clear annual calendar of three professional events, and transparent expectations — this is structured, professional, and built to last.
A consistent monthly salary for every Pound for Pound Brand Athlete — a real, professional foundation to build your career on. This is your base starting pay, and it grows incrementally as you grow with the company.
In return, the requirements are simple and entirely within your control:
Mention “Pound for Pound Brand Athlete” in your Instagram bio.
Include the link www.poundforpoundarmwrestling.com in your Instagram bio.
This opportunity is built for independent athletes. You keep your freedom — we simply ask you to show up as a professional when you have a match booked.
Pound for Pound is built for independent athletes who want to treat armwrestling as a professional and commercial career — not those content to stay only in the amateur system. We believe Avilie is exactly that kind of athlete.
Take your time. Read this with your parents. Ask us anything. Whatever you decide, our respect for what you have achieved remains the same. And if you choose to step onto the professional stage, we will be proud to stand in your corner.
With respect and belief in your future, The Pound for Pound Team
