Forgot to mention this in the video but although Russia didn’t compete in the Paris Olympics games, 3 of the Olympic champions are from the Dagestan/caucus region and previously competed for Russia: 74kg - Razambek Zhamalov (Uzbekistan) (Chechniya) 86kg- Magomed Ramazanov (Bulgaria )(Dagestan) 97kg - Akhmed Tazhudinov (Bahrain) (Dagestan) LIKE and SUBSCRIBE if you want to keep seeing more content, world champs in everything we do!☝🏼💪🏼🏆

[@josephgreenslade7525]

While it is true that Zhamalov isn’t ethnically Dagestani, he was born, grew up, and learned his wrestling in Dagestan.

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@josephgreenslade7525 most of them all go to Dagestan for camps to train. For example, Ismail Musukaev is from Kabardino-Balkaria ,another small region and trained many times in Dagestan.

[@Kotz1k]

Georgia is also part of Caucasus.

[@laikencopeman6424]

Should definitely do one on Japan. They have had a lot of recent success and would love to to hear your thoughts about it.

[@StevanMicicSRB]

Definitely will! Thank you!

[@josephgreenslade7525]

To put it in perspective, even with the best Dagestani wrestlers unable to attend, athletes of a Dagestani background still lead the medal table with three gold and three bronze medalists.

[@billgrubb2799]

I love hearing your perspective on why other places are turning out such good wrestlers. Get well soon...wrestling needs you!

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@billgrubb2799 thank you so much, will definitely keep it up!💪🏼

[@RenegadeVulcan]

In Dagestan wrestling isn't a sport, it is life itself

[@mr.gopnik4976]

I wish my country afghanistan was prosperous and stable, the kids there would've loved a sport like wrestling there. I hope in the future we get to see some talent come out of there.

[@sharaf4592]

Big respect to the world champion Stevan micic. You’re the man. I would love to train with you one day

[@DarrenTy88]

Loving the channel!

[@Traptinachangingmaze]

This was a great video broski 💪

Bryan Cullen: Who taught Dagestan's how to Wrestle? Ed Bravo: Abe Lincoln, that's why they all have beards

[@AchillesWrestlingWorld]

Very good video. Please take the background music off as it's just ruining the video. Keep up the good work and looking forward to seeing back training and competing.

[@vincentjoyce455]

Great video. The US has a bizarre obsession with football and so many 5 foot nothing dads tell their kids "you gotta wr3stle to be better at football". There is none of that noise in Dagastan.

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@vincentjoyce455 true that! Blows my mind as well

[@BadWolfMMANashville]

As a Muslim it was great to hear you say positive things about the impact of Islam on the Dagestan wrestlers. I hated to hear that you would not be able to compete in the Olympics. I hope you heal from the injury and it has no long term influence on your career. That being said, GO BUCKS! O-H!!

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@BadWolfMMANashville thank you so much!! And Go blue!

[@AlanDiaz-l2w]

Great video. Would love to hear you talk about Japans team cuz they came in clutch with 8 golds. Heal up good.

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@AlanDiaz-l2w good idea! Will definitely do that soon

[@miljandjukanovic961]

Awesome video brother! These are some of the differences that I noticed compared to USA. 1. They are all unanimous in their ways of training and thinking with full belief in the system. In USA you get a lot more different opinions. 2. They take their warm ups and stretching more seriously, even gymnastics 3. They train their entire life in very high altitudes which gives them a big advantage in endurance 4. The lifestyle and brotherhood makes them stronger. They motivate each other and they are way closer to each other then most of USA collages. If one succeeds they all feel like they succeeded because they are in it together. 5. Food is all natural and non GMO

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@miljandjukanovic961 hvala puno brate!!🫂❤️

[@miljandjukanovic961]

PS I didn't go there, but I follow a lot of their wrestlers, fighters, insta pages, youtube videos, interviews, training footage etc

[@chrislaverick6413]

No drinking, live in a village where there aint much temptation, wealth if you succeed, room filled with world and olympic champions, in the mountains with high altitude, just s few reasons

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@chrislaverick6413 sounds like a winning formula to me!🏆🥇

​@@StevanMicicSRB yea man, he even won the russian nationals, i think that is why he got the spot

[@rohit8481]

​@@mr.gopnik4976 do you think he's on the smaller side for 61kg?

[@Tavionlauk]

Hey is there a email I could reach u on about wrestling and trying to get better I'm a second year wrestler in hs

[@chaystafari3228]

The secret is their religion and belief system .

[@abdujk]

Have you ever wrestled uguev

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@abdujk yes I did twice! I lost my first time to him 6-4 in European championships 2018, and last year I beat him at the world championships 9-7 in the quarter finals en route to my gold medal

[@rohit8481]

​@@StevanMicicSRBOne of the best runs I've seen! Good luck for your future endeavors!

[@Bravo6goindark]

Hmm other than expert coaches money and facilities provided by tycoons and the state and add a shit ton of gear and voila

[@StevanMicicSRB]

@@Bravo6goindark it’s easy to invest in a sport that’s the most popular

[@somarramos7156]

These Russian areas had systematic drug use in PEDs from an early age resulting in them having insane strength even years later
