“It is true that Legkov was not elected to the ROC Athletes’ Commission. A person who does not fight for the interests of the people he represents should not be there.” — Ridzik

Olympic Bronze Medal in Freestyle Sergei Ridzik on the air of the program “There is a theme!” on “” started a correspondence debate with the Olympic champion in cross-country skiing Alexander Legkov.

Previously, Ridzik was one of the initiators of the idea of ​​lowering the retirement age for athletes, the relevant issue was discussed at an expanded meeting of the Athletes’ Commission of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) . Legkov later opposed this proposal, noting that athletes are no different from representatives of other professions, such as doctors.

– Remembering how upset he was when he wasn’t elected to the ROC Athletes’ Commission… I think it was the right decision. A person who is not fighting for the interests of the athletes, the people you want to represent, has no right to be there. Although I am not a member of the commission, I express the opinion of many,” Ridzik said.
