Turan Bayramov (born 11 January 2001) is an Azerbaijani freestyle wrestler who competes at 70 kilograms,[2] and 74 kilograms. Bayramov claimed a silver medal from the 2021 European Championships (70kg), was the 2019 U23 World Champion and the 2018 Cadet World and Youth Olympic Champion, as well as a medalist at multiple high level age-group competitions.[3]

Wrestling career

[edit]

Age-group level

[edit]

As a cadet, Bayramov placed third and second at the 2017 European and World Championships respectively.[4] The following year, he was able to claim both championships and also became the Youth Olympic Champion.[5] As a junior, he went on to win the European Championship but placed third at the World Championships in 2019.[6] After a second-place finish at the Senior European Championships, Bayramov claimed the Junior European Continental championship in 2021.[7]

Senior level

[edit]

2019–2020

[edit]

Bayramov made his international freestyle debut aged 18 at the 2019 U23 European Championships, where he lost his first match to place 11th.[8] Despite his placement at the European Championships, Bayramov was able to claim the U23 World Championship after four victories, becoming a three–time non–senior World and Olympic Champion.[9] In 2020, he placed third at the prestigious Yasar Dogu International.[10]

2021

[edit]

To start off the Olympic year, Bayramov placed third at the Grand Prix de France Henri Deglane, only losing to World Championship silver medalist from the United States James Green.[11] A month later, he placed third at the Ukrainian Memorial, notably defeating US Open champion Joseph McKenna and Junior World Champion Erik Arushanian.[12] In April, Bayramov moved up to 70 kilograms and claimed a silver medal from the European Championships, losing to Israil Kasumov in the finale.[13]

On August 5, Bayramov moved up to 74 kilograms and competed at the Summer Olympics, where after a win over Vasyl Mykhailov from Ukraine, he was downed by two-time World Champion Frank Chamizo Italy to place eight.[14] He was able to compete at the 2020 Summer Olympics as Khadzhimurad Gadzhiyev was not able to compete due to injury.[15]

2022

[edit]

He won the gold medal in his event at the Matteo Pellicone Ranking Series 2022 held in Rome, Italy.[16] He competed in the 74 kg event at the 2022 World Wrestling Championships held in Belgrade, Serbia.[17]

2024 and match fixing scandal

[edit]

He won one of the bronze medals in the men's 74 kg event at the 2024 European Wrestling Championships held in Bucharest, Romania.[18]

He competed at the 2024 European Wrestling Olympic Qualification Tournament in Baku, Azerbaijan, and advanced to the semifinals, where he met two-time World champion Frank Chamizo.[19] Chamizo stated that he was offered a $300,000 bribe to lose to Bayramov, which Chamizo refused. Several of Chamizo's takedowns were not counted by the referee and the match was tied 8-8 into the final seconds, when Chamizo scored a takedown and earned two points. However, the referee overturned the points after Bayramov's coach challenged. This decision was heavily criticized by the Italian Wrestling Federation and other observers, as Bayramov's knees clearly touched the mat. Although the match was tied, Bayramov was declared the winner on criteria, and consequently moved into the finals and qualified for the Olympics. Chamizo accused the referee of match fixing.[20][21] Two weeks after the tournament, the refereeing body that officiated the match were suspended by the UWW after two independent panels ruled the bout was scored incorrectly. However, due to a policy the result could not be changed after the winner is officially declared.[22]
