At the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing , he defeated his final opponent from the 2007 World Cup Bajaraagiin Naranbaatar and then Dabbaghi ​​Souraki from Iran safely on points in the first fight . Then he was surprisingly defeated by the Japanese Tomohiro Matsunaga , against whom he found no attitude. In the battle for the bronze medal he managed to win again over Dilshod Mansurov.

In 2009 Kuduchow switched to featherweight because of weight problems. He made this jump smoothly. Although he had to be content with a third place behind Z Weltlimxan Hüseynov from Azerbaijan and Evgeni Chawilow from Ukraine at a world cup tournament at the beginning of the year in Tehran , in September 2009 he was fully integrated into the new weight class and won in Herning / Denmark with five wins the world title in featherweight.

At the Russian championship 2011 Kuduchow won the featherweight title ahead of Opan Sat , Timur Pesterew and Rassul Murtsalijew. In Istanbul he won his fourth world title a few months later. In the decisive fights he defeated Ken'ichi Yumoto from Japan, Didier Païs from France and Franklin Gómez from Puerto Rico . At the 2012 Olympic Games in London , he started as a favorite because of his previous successes. He lived up to this position initially and defeated Yogeshwar Dutt from India , Masoud Mahmoud Esmaeilpoorjouybari from Iran and Ri Jong Myonk from North Korea . In the final he met the young Azerbaijanist Toğrul Əsgərov , against whom he lost on points. He therefore had to be satisfied with the silver medal.

Kuduchow was killed in a road accident on a highway between Krasnodar and Vladikavkaz at the end of December 2013 . In September 2014 he was inducted into the FILA International Wrestling Hall of Fame for his services to wrestling .

During follow-up tests in August 2016, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) found that Kuduchow had been doped with dehydrochloromethyl testosterone four years earlier . Two months later, the IOC said it had been informed of Kuduchov's death by the Russian Olympic Committee and that this was not known at the time of the decision to retest his doping samples. As a result, the IOC decided to immediately discontinue the disciplinary proceedings, as they cannot be carried out against the deceased. Kuduchow continues to be listed as a silver medalist. Indian bronze medalist Yogeshwar Dutt had previously stated that he would reject the silver medal anyway and wished it would stay with Kuduchov's family.
