Riza Kayaalp is amongst the best heavyweight wrestlers in the Greco-Roman style. The Turkish wrestler has won everything that the sport has to offer including two Olympic medals and four world championships. Now, he has set sight on the Serbia-bound world championship. He said, “Our first camp happened in June and I could not attend it because of some situations, but I joined this camp. I will attend all the camps from now on. UWW is considering a world championship every 12 months. They want to get the world championship to be held before the Olympics by the end of this year. They will make the final decision in the first week of August. We will determine the course of our study accordingly. For now, we continue our work by doing weight training. In this way, we try to maintain our form. We stay away from wrestling training. I want to be the world champion for the fifth time. We were going to go to the Olympiad last year as a world champion, but since it was delayed, I want to take the next world championship and participate as such,” reported Turkish news daily.

The United Wolrd Wrestling (UWW) had earlier this month announced that it will be hosting the worlds in December in Belgrade. Kayaalp is the first Turkish wrestler to win European Championship nine times
