Career

Sergei Djudjajew was a member of the Red Army and a member of the SKA Rostov Army Sports Club . Like all good wrestlers, he began wrestling as a teenager, concentrating on the Greco-Roman style. He was fighting flyweight, the weight class that had its weight limit of 52 kg in its time.

In 1983 he was used at the European Championships in Budapest and took second place in flyweight behind the experienced Lajos Rácz from Hungary , but ahead of Roman Kierpacz , Poland , Mladen Mladenow , Bulgaria and Constantin Alexandru from Romania .

In the next few years he was unable to establish himself in the USSR . 1984 and 1985 represented in the flyweight Benur Paschajan and Minsait Tasetdinow the Soviet flags at the international championships.

He became the Soviet flyweight champion in 1986 and fashioned this year into his. First he was European champion in Athens and defeated it in the final match Mihai Cişmaş from Romania with 5: 3 techn. Points. He also prevailed at the World Cup in Budapest that same year . Here he defeated the 1985 world champion Jon Rønningen from Norway in the final and also left the 1984 Olympic champion Atsuji Miyahara from Japan behind.

In 1987, Sergei Djudjajew had to realize that a world title in the former Soviet Union was no guarantee for a long career. He was never again a Soviet champion and therefore did not make any further appearances at the international championships. 1987 started for the USSR in flyweight Andrij Kalaschnykow at the European championship and Alexander Ignatenko at the world championship.
