/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Ashot Danielyan (weight class: 74kg.) and Vache
Vardanyan (weight class: 68kg.) were a poor success at the World Cup
held in Minsk on Feb. 15-18.
The World Cup was a kind of training for our sambo wrestlers, Armenian
Sambo Federation President Levon Hayrapetyan told PanARMENIAN.Net.
Minsk World Cup was one of the stages of World Championship held
once in 6 years in different parts of the world. To fully deserve
the World Cup Champion title, the wrestlers need to participate in
all Championship tours.
"In Minsk, Ashot Danielyan fought 3 combats against Belarusian
wrestlers. He won two of them, but lost the third, failing to break
through to the semifinal," Levon Hayrapetyan said.
He also remarked that Armenian wrestlers lack international practice
and proper training because of unsatisfactory financing by the
government.
"We had no training either in December or in January. And before
the Championship due on May 14-18 in Milan, we'll participate in one
international competition: a Tournament after Sambo Founder Arkadi
Kharlampiyev due Apr.24-27 in Moscow," Hayrapetyan said.
