The past night was very successful for the Uzbekistan national team at the Paris Olympics. Our athletes won four medals, three of which were gold and one silver. As a result, the total number of medals won by Uzbeks at the Olympic Games reached 13, including 8 gold, 2 silver, and 3 bronze.

Our boxers performed excellently. World champion Abdumalik Khalokov added another gold medal to his collection at the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics. In the final, he faced off against Munarbek Seitbek uulu (Kyrgyzstan) in the ring. In a powerful bout, our boxer left no chance for his opponent and claimed a brilliant victory with a clear advantage.

Bakhodir Jalolov put an excellent finishing touch on the final boxing matches. In the championship bout, our compatriot, who competed in the super heavyweight category, defeated Ayub Ghadfa of Spain, bringing another gold medal to the Uzbekistan delegation’s tally.

It should be noted that this is the fifth gold medal overall won by Uzbekistan’s boxing masters. This achievement is a record not only for our national boxing team but also in the context of the Paris 2024 Olympics in this sport. Additionally, this result secured the top overall team ranking for our boxers.

Furthermore, Uzbekistan’s taekwondo WT team member Svetlana Osipova became the first athlete in our country’s history to win a medal in this sport at the Olympic Games. Our compatriot faced Frenchwoman Althéa Laurin, a former world champion and bronze medalist of the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics, in the final stage of the competition. Unfortunately, Osipova was a bit unlucky and, after losing to her opponent, she earned a silver medal.

Another gold for our team was secured by freestyle wrestler Razambek Jamalov (up to 74 kg). In the final, he faced Daichi Takatani (Japan). Thanks to his diligence and experience, Jamalov defeated a serious opponent and managed to reach the pinnacle of the Olympic podium.
