[http://bleacherreport.com/articles/97368-alexander-karelin-the-meanest-man-in-the-world][http://www.badassoftheweek.com/karelin.html] For the first four years of his international sporting career Karelin won almost 100 international bouts, two Olympic games, three European and three World championships.
In the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, Karelin faced American Matt Ghaffari for the gold medal.
Karelin had come off shoulder surgery and looked vulnerable against a strong Ghaffari, who was able to repel Karelin's efforts to lift and slam him, forcing Karelin to use all of his skill and experience to defend a 1-0 lead.

Karelin had previously beaten Gardner in 1997.
The win was controversial at the time as it took 90 seconds to review, and is still an element of contention today since the broken-hands clinch rule had only been put in a few months earlier.
According to "The Slate", "Karelin’s icy gulag death stare during the medal ceremony is one of the most terrifying sights in Olympic history".
Karelin was revered for his extraordinary strength and unprecedented success in international competition.
He competed at the heaviest weight class of his day, 130 kg (286 lb) and 1.91 m (6-feet-3 1/4 inches) tall.
His conditioning and quickness combined with his dominance of the sport, led to him being known as "The Experiment".
When asked why he thought he was called that, Karelin noted that others don't understand because "I train every day of my life as they have never trained a day in theirs."
His coach convinced him to wrestle at the age of 13 and Karelin trained by running through thigh deep snow for 2 hours at a clip and rowing a boat on Siberian lakes until his hands bled.
On February 21, 1999 Aleksandr Karelin defeated Akira Maeda in a professional wrestling contest that drew a gate of $1 million.
The match gained widespread media coverage, including mentions in "The New York Times" and "Sports Illustrated".
The match took place in the Maeda owned professional wrestling organization "RINGS".
Though widely considered to have been a shoot style pro-wrestling contest, the match is counted as an official mixed martial arts (MMA) match in Sherdog's record database. 
A gutwrench suplex which begins with the opponent lying on the mat.
The wrestler locks his arms around the opponent's waist and stands up, lifting the opponent.
He then throws the opponent to his side, dropping them to the mat face up on to their shoulders or face down on their chest.
This move was borrowed from Greco-Roman wrestling, where it was most famously the signature move of Russian Alexander Karelin. 
Karelin was famous for his reverse body lift, the "Karelin Lift", where facing the opponent who was lying flat on the mat to keep from being thrown, Karelin hoisted his opponents into the air and slammed them violently to the mat.
This devastatingly effective maneuver, when properly executed, awarded Karelin 5 points per throw, the maximum awarded in Greco-Roman wrestling.
The throw had long been in use by lighter wrestlers but not by heavyweights since the technique required immense strength.
Karelin's ability to perform this throw against elite opponents weighing as much as 130 kg was amazing to audiences as well as other participants and observers of the sport.
