In Rio he then first won over Dilschod Turdijew from Uzbekistan, but then lost to the experienced Mark Overgaard Madsen from Denmark. Since this reached the final, Viktor Nemes was able to continue in the consolation round, but lost there against Saeid Mourad Abdvali from Iran and took a good 8th place in the final bill.
In May 2017 Viktor Nemeš lost at the European Championships in Novi Sad in the weight class up to 75 kg in the qualification against Karapat Chaljan from Armenia and only came in 13th place. The world championships of the same year in Paris became the highlight of his career so far. He won there over Saeid Mourad Abdvali, Maksat Jereschepow, Kazakhstan, Karapet Chaljan, Kazbek Kilow, Belarus and Alexander Czechirkin from Russia and became world champion.
He was also very successful in 2018, although he could not win a title at the international championships that year.
