The organizers of the international boxing tournament in Morocco played the Russian anthem at the award ceremony for Russian Edmond Khudoyan.
Khudoyan won gold in the weight category up to 48 kg, defeating the representative of Morocco Hamza Essaadi in the final match. After the completion of the anthem, Khudoyan pointed to the sleeve of his olympic shirt, where the emblem with the Russian flag is placed.
– Impressions are only positive, the parade of the Russian team opened with a victory. I wish the rest of the guys to win as well; We will prove that we are the best and take the first team place.
I’m a little dissatisfied with myself in fights, after the Russian Championship there was no practice, we stayed a little too long. The first and second fights were a good start. Let’s get in shape and, God forbid, we’ll show even better boxing at the World Championships,” Khudoyan said in a video published by the press service of the Russian Boxing Federation.

Every day at 9 am, Ukrainians commemorate the people who lost their lives in the Russia-Ukraine war. Today Sport.ua recalls that 21-year-old Thai boxing master Vladislav Vakulenko, a very positive person, had great potential in the ring, but with the beginning of a full-scale invasion he decided to defend Ukraine. The fighter died exactly three years ago, on December 30, 2022, while conducting a combat mission near Bakhmut in the Donetsk region.
Vladislav was born in Kiev and has been involved with sports since his childhood. Just six months before his tragic death, he received a diploma from the National University of Physical Education and Sports of Ukraine and dreamed of major competitions, medals and training future champions. In parallel with his studies, Vladislav trained in Muay Thai. The man hoped to return to training in the gym after the war.
Vladislav Vakulenko took up arms immediately after the Muscovites’ large-scale occupation of his territory. “We live with war! I understand that we live in a historical time when there are real brave comrades nearby, whose soul and body are eager for war… This is a time when you will remain a hero or die a hero,” he wrote on social networks.
His friends and coach remember Vlad as a man of light. He always smiled, joked, supported others, was a master of inspiration, did not make excuses, did not back down from difficulties. The friend wrote: “You’ve done more at this age than some have done in 50 or 60 years.” And Vlad’s mentor, Stanislav Voiten, recalls: “He did his best in training, gave his life in the fight against the invader. I am proud to have known him.”
