Armenian Greco-Roman wrestler, four-time European, three-time world and Olympic champion Artur Aleksanyan expressed gratitude to everyone for support after the World Wrestling Championships in Kazakhstan.

The Armenian athlete had to miss the final bout against Russia’s Musa Evloev at the championship due to the rib injury he had suffered in the 1/8 finals. 

“Dear compatriots, I am very grateful to all of you for supporting me at this difficult time. Unfortunately, the serious injury prevented me from giving you the joy of victory but I assure you that I shall have many more victories to make you happy. God bless us all,” he wrote on Instagram.
