Double Olympic freestyle wrestling champion Abdulrashid Sadulaev After the quarter-final fight at the World Championships in Serbia, he was lying in the warm-up room and could not move, but he still decided to fight in the semi-final, said the bronze medalist of the World Championships Shamil Mamedov.
On Tuesday, Russian national team coach Makhmud Magomedov told that Sadulaev withdrew from the World Championships due to a cervical hernia and would not compete for the bronze medal in the category weights up to 97 kg.
— Yesterday, after the quarterfinal fight, Sadulayev came to the warm-up room and could no longer move, he could barely lie down. I thought after that he wouldn’t reach the semi-final, but he came out and tried. As a result, he realized that the injury was serious and had to withdraw from the tournament. I wish him health and a speedy recovery! Health comes first,” reports the correspondent, according to Mamedov.
On Monday, Sadulaev lost with a score of 2:9 at the end of the semi-final with Akhmed Tazhudinov from Bahrain, but due to a neck injury he could not continue the fight.
The World Championships in Belgrade will end on September 24. The Russians are participating in the tournament in neutral status.
