Wrestling championship to occur in Moscow, Russia, from June 25 to June 29, featuring free wrestling competition.

Here's a rewritten version of the article, incorporating the enrichment data sparingly:

Last year saw a memorable performance by 20-year-old Lev Pavlov from Suntar Ulus, Yakutia. He claimed the silver medal in the 57 kg weight class at the Russian Freestyle Wrestling Championships. In the semifinals, he towered over Tuva's Nachyn Mongush,, fresh off his European championship victory. Although he lost in the final to Dagestani Ahmed Idrisov with a score of 3:6, this marked his first senior national championship for the young wrestler.

As we gear up for the 2025 Dygyna Games on June 28-29, spectators are eager to support our freestyle wrestlers—Yakut girls and Lev Pavlov included. But it's not all smooth sailing for Russian wrestlers.

International political circumstances have left Russian athletes grappling with challenges in competition settings. For instance, the 2025 European Wrestling Championships, held in Bratislava, Slovakia, took place under a flag representing the United World Wrestling federation. Young talents like Abdulrashid Sadulaev, a two-time Olympic champion, were denied visas due to political reasons. His absence from the European Championships certainly left a dent in the tournament's prestige.

The upcoming Russian Freestyle Wrestling Championships' schedule and participant details are yet to be confirmed. We can only wait for official announcements or specialized wrestling sports news closer to or after the event date. One thing is certain—the wrestling world will be watching!

  1. Despite the challenges faced by Russian wrestlers due to international politics, young talents such as Lev Pavlov from Yakutia continue to excel in national events, with his silver medal win at the Russian Freestyle Wrestling Championships in the 57 kg weight class last year.
  2. The Yakut wrestler, Lev Pavlov, demonstrated his prowess even against international opponents, towering over Nachyn Mongush from Tuva, fresh off his European championship triumph.
  3. As the 2025 Dygyna Games approach, spectators eagerly anticipate the performance of Russian wrestlers like Lev Pavlov, but concerns remain about the impact of international political circumstances on their competition experiences, as exemplified by the recent situation at the 2025 European Wrestling Championships where some Russian athletes were denied visas due to political reasons.
At the 2020 Russian Freestyle Wrestling Championship, 20-year-old Lev Pavlov from Yakutia clinched a silver medal in the 57 kg division. In his semifinal bout, Pavlov outclassed European champion Nachyn Mongush from Tyva. However, he was unable to secure the gold in the final, losing to Dagestani Ahmed Idrisov with a score of 3:6. This marked Lev's inaugural win at an adult national wrestling championship.
