(FOX 9) - In the corner of a farm in Stacy, Minnesota there's a shrine to Jeff Dabe's part-time passion.
"My favorite is this one and the belt I won from Canada, but ended up losing – that was a good belt too," Dabe told FOX 9’s Maury Glover.
But you don't have to twist his arm to see Dabe is a big deal.
"It's kind of cool, kind of fun. I never really worried about the titles before – it was just fun to do, but to have it and say I have a world title is kind of nice," Dabe said.
Several times a week Dabe trains at his practice table to strengthen his left arm. Not that his forearm needs to get any bigger – it already measures 20 inches in circumference, which comes in handy for his hobby: arm wrestling.
"I like the one-on-one. When you win, it’s on you. When you lose, it's on you too. You get that adrenaline, pumped up feeling, nervousness. Everyone has their thing – I like arm wrestling, I suppose," Dabe admits.
