Wrestling lost a fierce competitor today. Besik Kudukhov was a goer; he was relentless; he never stopped moving and always was on the offensive. His career included 4 World Title belts (2007, 2009, 2010, & 2011), a World Silver (2006), an Olympic Bronze (2008), and an Olympic Silver (2012); equally impressive is his 7 strait Russian National Titles to reach those events.
Besik, only 27, was pronounced dead after sustaining injuries during an automobile accident when his vehicle struck a truck head on. No other details have been released. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Kudukhov family, and his friends a like. His mark on wrestling will never be forgotten.
Besik Kudukhov 1986 - 2013 REST IN PEACE
