Armenian unarmed self-defense team won two medals in the European
Adult Championship held in Serbia. Ashot Danielyan won silver medal in
74kg weight category, and David Khachatryan won bronze medal in 68kg
weight category. Our best unarmed self-defense player, the world ex
champion of 2005 Layert Avagyan was injured in the first stage of the
championship and couldn't continue his meeting. The Armenian Unarmed
Self-Defense Federation chairman Levon Hairapetyan mentioned that
Avagyan would win a medal by all means in case he participated. Thus,
Armenia lost one of its medals because of Avagyan's injury. Regardless
of the medals the chairman of the Federation was not content with the
participation of the Armenian sportsmen. "We got accustomed to winning
medals which has become a normal thing for us. But I expected more -
a gold medal. This is a good result for the Olympic Games and Sport
Committee but I am not pleased with it."
Let us add that 5 Armenian sportsmen participated in the European
Championship held in Belgrade.
