Down-the-line.com/Judo. Olympic bronze medalist Dmitry Nosov commented on the decision of the Ukrainian Judo Federation to refuse to participate in international competitions, since athletes from Russia and Belarus were allowed to participate in a neutral status.

“About refusing to participate… When women do that, it’s called hysteria. That’s what it looks like. And no one in the world will support it. Also about Znatar. If a man promised to give medals and refuse titles, then it must be a man, because a man weighs exactly as much as his word weighs,” Nosov said.
