General
REPRESENTING SPAIN
Born in the Russian Federation, his family left the country to escape conflict in Dagestan. He moved to Spain as a refugee in 2004. "I had a complicated life in the Russian Federation and I left there with my mother and four siblings. We first went to Germany and from there we went to live in France, and finally we arrived in Spain thanks to the Red Cross. We settled first in San Sebastian and later in Logrono. My life became more comfortable because I no longer had to change country or language every other month." After spending two years training in Logrono he returned to the Russian Federation with his family for another two years, before moving back to Spain following surgery for two fractures in his right hand. "I thought I would never box again, but in Spain they told me there was a solution for my hand. After a year, I had surgery and now I feel as if I had never had any problem. I am very grateful to Spain because it allowed me to have a life and has given me many opportunities." (elmundo.es, 08 Jun 2021; elespanol.com, 04 Nov 2019; marca.com, 17 Oct 2019)
