Mariusz made a comeback in 2002. Many predicted that he would not win the competition, but to everyone’s surprise, he won the 2002 World’s Strongest Man title.
The following year, in 2003, he won the World’s Strongest Man title with a 20-point lead. In March 2004, he was also crowned World Champion of the Strongman Super Series. He finished third in WSM but was later disqualified for failing to follow the Organization’s Strongman Health policy. He was also required to return the prize money. Mariusz was also barred from participating in the competition for a year.
After a decade of collaboration, the IFSA (International Federation of Strength Athletes) decided to split from WSM. IFSA gained a new sponsor and began holding its own competition. From 2005 to 2009, Mariusz won three WSM titles. In an interview, Mariusz stated that the 2009 World’s Strongest Man Competition would be his final competition because MMA required different training.
Mariusz took on a new challenge after winning everything in Strongman. Mariusz Pudziannowski has signed with KSW, a Polish MMA promoter (Konfrontacja Sztuk Walk).

At KSW XVI, he faced James Thompson and was defeated after James performed an arm triangle on him.
Mariusz went to train with American Top Team, America’s top MMA camp. Following his return, he faced James Thompson in a rematch, which he won by majority decision. Thompson dominated Mariusz in every round, so the victory was contentious. The KSW overturned the decision and declared the contest null and void. Mariusz fought Rolles Gracie Jr in KSW 31 on May 23, 2015 in Gdansk, Poland. Mariusz won the fight by KO in the first round.
Mariusz suffered a leg injury in the first round and was forced to withdraw from the match. He returned to KSW after a 15-month absence.
