The 5'2" wrestler has been on a sensational run at the international level since failing to medal at the 2017 World Championships, winning 12 gold, 2 silver and a bronze medal in 15 appearances. A former cadet world champion, Uguev will be seeded second behind Steven MICIC (SRB) at the Olympics having collected ranking points at the World Championships. In 2020, Uguev participated in the Individual World Cup and outscored his opponents 45-1 during his gold-medal winning run. Uguev is also a four-time Russian national champion.
