Freestyle wrestlers and their medals, 2012 Summer Olympics,
Men's 84 kg:
Gold: Sharif Sharifov, born in Makhachkala, Dagestan wrestled for Azerbaijan. The Dagestani News Agency --
-- reported Sharif as a Dagestani wrestler; all language-language outlets reports him as an Azeri wrestler. I cannot find information on when he moved from Makhachkala, Dagestan, to Baku, Azerbaijan. I'll bet, though, that he got his training in wonderful, mad, Dagestan. For more on Shariff, see, 2012 FILA Freestyle Wrestling World Cup in Baku, Azerbaijan in this blog.
