Today, March 27, an international tournament of the Poddubny Wrestling League (PWL 11) will take place in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, featuring the young star of Kyrgyz wrestling, Omurbek Asan uulu. In his weight category up to 61 kilograms, he will face experienced Russian wrestler Chermen Tavitov, who has a victory at the Yarygin Cup and a final appearance at a major tournament in Albania under his belt.
Omurbek has already made a name for himself on the domestic stage, winning a silver medal at the Kyrgyzstan Championship at the end of 2025, where he narrowly lost to Bekzat Almaz uulu in a tense match. His encounter with Tavitov will be a serious test for him and an opportunity to showcase his skills on an international platform.
The PWL 11 tournament has attracted attention due to the participation of outstanding wrestlers. In addition to Omurbek, the honor of Kyrgyzstan will be defended by well-known athletes such as Akjol Mahmudov and Aiperi Medet kyzy, as well as promising wrestler Abdumalik Karachov. Fans are hoping for exciting bouts and new victories for our athletes in their battles against the strongest competitors in the world.
