Try to get the answers:

- Why there are so many federations?

ANALYSING TOPIC WE START WITH I.F.B.B..

During the years there were lots of tales told about I.F.B.B. (International Federation of Body Builders). Still many people believe those tales... During the last thirty years we were writing about the I.F.B.B. many times. Now working on the „World Bodybuilding Encyclopedia“ («Энциклопедия всемирного культуризма») we will discuss the I.F.B.B. again. There were many discussions about ther I.F.B.B. before. The image of I.F.B.B. was finally ruined after the second split of the I.F.B.B. in 2008 - 2009 (third I.F.B.B. split happened in 2015 - 2016). Then a fierce war started between the new I.F.B.B. President RAFAEL SANTONJA (Spain) on the one side and the I.F.B.B. lower and financist ALEX BAUER (Austria) and PAUL CHUA (Singapore) on the other side. There was a court trial in London (UK) which RAFAEL SANTONJA lost. You still can see how  I.F.B.B. documents show it‘s pompastic low image. The tales were finally stopped when the I.F.B.B. Vice President PAUL CHUA sent to the W.F.F. – W.B.B.F. (World  Fitness Federation, World Body Building Federation) International President DSc. EDMUNDAS DAUBARAS nearly 600 I.F.B.B. documents (over 2 000 pages totally) and asked to publish them on our International Page www.wff.lt . It was done then. Now basing on the I.F.B.B. documents slowly step by step we will cover I.F.B.B. topic again.
