Mongolian National Olympic Committee president, Naidangiin Tuvshinbayar has been sentenced to 16 years in jail after murdering a childhood friend of his.
Tuvshinbayar, 38, an Olympic gold medalist in Judo and a national of Mongolia, was sentenced to 16 years behind bars by the court of the Kahn-Uul district in the Mongolian capital, Ulaanbaatar, after a well-documented trial in relation to the case in question.
Winning Olympic gold in the 2008 summer games in Beijing and a silver medal at the 2012 summer games in London, Tuvshinbayar has also been credited with having a significant influence on politics in Mongolia, with Reuters pointing to the fact his achievements as an athlete “promoted leaders from feuding parties to join thousands of revellers in the streets to celebrate their champion.” (Transcribed by Bloody Elbow).
Engaging in a physical altercation with his childhood friend, Erdenebilegiin Enkhbat on April 2, 2021, Tuvshinbayar struck Enkhbat multiple times in the head with a heavy object, leaving the latter with severe brain damage as a result of the assault.
Enkhbat was hospitalized as a result of the attack from Tuvshinbayar, where he failed to ever regain consciousness before he eventually passed away on December 24 of that same year. Following Enkhbat’s death, new charges were brought against Tuvshinbayar in relation to the drunken assault. Tuvshinbayar was initially jailed for a period of 20 days following the assault, prior to Enkhbat’s death, accused of causing “serious damage to the health of others.”
Following a year-long trial, Tuvshinbayar was eventually sentenced to 16 years in jail.
Watch Kayla Harrison’s impressive MMA debut at tonight’s PFL 2 from Chicago:
The post Highlights: Kayla Harrison Debuts With Amazing Armbar appeared first on LowKickMMA.com.
This evening’s (Thurs., June 21, 2018) Professional Fighters League (PFL) 2 from the Chicago Theater in Chicago, Illinois, was a sneaky-good card flying under the radar.
Much of that was because it featured the awaited MMA debut of highly-touted Olympic judo gold medalist Kayla Harrison. A former training partner and roommate of legendary former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey, Harrison was expected to submit opponent Brittney Elkin.
Harrison did just that to start her MMA career off right, using a twisting, turning armbar to score a highly impressive first win. After winning her second judo gold medal in 2016, Harrison shifted to MMA and is currently training at Florida’s American Top Team (ATT) with a plan to eventually fight women’s MMA queen Cris Cyborg in the future. She showed little in the way of striking prowess, getting the clinch and immediately taking the fight to her obvious area of strength, so a bout with Cyborg is understandably a far way off.
For now, watch her submission win in her MMA debut:

You know, there’s something oddly therapeutic about watching Ronda Rousey judo slam people for 4 straight minutes (all the emphasis on watching). Maybe it’s just the hardcore feminist in me getting a kick out of seeing a 200+ pound man effortlessly thrown through the air, then dropped like a sack of flour by a much smaller woman, or maybe it’s something simpler, like the satisfying “THWACK” sound they all make upon hitting the canvas as a shell of their former selves.
In either case, this recently unearthed supercut by Youtuber NastyaSiberia captures the essence of Rousey’s devastating judo game like no other. A note to all MMA reporters: Unless you want a broken rib, forgo the harai goshi demonstrations and stick to asking Rousey questions about her sex policy on fight week.

MMA Weekly reports that the first American to ever win a gold medal in Judo at the Olympics, Kayla Harrison, has signed with manager Ali Abdel-Aziz and Dominance MMA. At this summer’s Olympic games Harrison brought home gold in the 78kg weight class.
Don’t get too excited at the prospect of the twenty two year-old taking her Judo skills to MMA just yet, however. According to MMA Weekly, Abdel-Aziz says that Harrison wants to go for another gold in four years.
“In an interview with MMAWeekly.com content partner Bleacher Report in July, Harrison discussed her potential move into MMA following along with former teammate Ronda Rousey.
‘Not sure as of right now. I never say never but I don’t know if the MMA world is ready for me! I’m a bit bigger than Ronda, and I’m not quite as flashy. I’m also not an entertainer. I do the sport because I love it, not for money or fame. So to make the transition into MMA would be a big one for me,’ said Harrison.”

Abdel-Aziz will manage Harrison along with her Judo coach Jimmy Pedro. Pedro is himself an American Judo legend, having won two bronze Olympic medals and coached other top players.
How do you think Harrison will fare in MMA, nation? She’d likely be less dynamic than Rousey but might she end up just as dominant in her weight class?

The athletic gaijin in the video above is Pavel Bojar (aka Takanoyama Shuntaro), a Czech sumo wrestler who has worked his way into Japan’s top Makuuchi division, despite being one of the lightest competitors in modern sumo history. At 6’1″ and just 200 pounds, Bojar relies on his judo background to make up for the tremendous weight disadvantages he generally faces, employing a slick arsenal of throws and trips, rather than just bull-rushing his opponents out of the ring. Watch the above video to see how far a little bit of actual grappling talent can get you in this weird sport. Look, I’m not trying to crack on the rich history of Japanese sumo wrestling, but for God’s sake, check out the tits on the guy at the 1:52 mark, who had just finished falling out of the ring like a moron. This is an athlete? Ronda Rousey would ruin half of these guys.
