One of the disappointments at the 6th Islamic Games was the result of the Azerbaijani Greco-Roman wrestlers. The team, represented by the main squad in the tournament, finished the competition with only two silver medals.
Idman.Biz learned the opinion of Azerbaijani-born Belarusian wrestler, Olympic champion, two-time world and three-time European champion Kamandar Majidov about the results of the Greco-Roman wrestling competitions.
To be honest, I wouldn't call the performance of the Azerbaijani team so weak. Firstly, the competitions were held in Olympic weight categories, and the team was represented by only six wrestlers. Secondly, fatigue had accumulated throughout the season. In addition, there was a very short break from the Islamic Games to the World Championship, and there was very little time for athletes to recover and heal injuries. Therefore, this is the main reason for the relatively weak result. Yes, of course, I also thought that someone from this six would definitely win "gold", but this is sport, and in sport not only the weak, but also the favorites lose," said Kamandar Majidov.
