Kyrgyzstan Youth National Championships

Rising star Dzhanseitov won in the Kyrgyzstan Youth National Championships
The Youth National Championships of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan was held in the capital city of the country in Bishkek. 2016 is an important year for the youth athletes as the AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships and the ASBC Asian Confederation Youth Boxing Championships both will be held in the upcoming months.
Altogether 121 boxers took part in the Youth National Championships of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan from all regions of the country. Bishkek, Osh, Dzhalal-Abad are the bests of the country and won gold medals in the Youth National Championships but Issyk-Kul and Naryn also proved their background is great in Kyrgyzstan.
Heydar Aliyev Junior Cup competitor Syrgak Dzhanseitov of Bishkek defeated Rustam Muratov of Issyk-Kul in the final of the Aibek Abdimomunov Prizes Tournament in Karakol just before the Kyrgyzstan Youth National Championships. The 17-year-old Dzhanseitov had to meet in the final of the event once again with Muratov and he proved he is stronger than his younger opponent. Dzhanseitov was silver medallist in the Kyrgyz Elite National Championships last November defeating more experienced boxers therefore his gold was not a surprise in Bishkek.
Junior National Championships silver medallist Ramazan Suranchiyev of Issyk-Kul won the Aibek Abdimomunov Prizes Tournament in Karakol just before the start of the Kyrgyzstan Youth National Championships. His final opponent was AIBA Junior World Boxing Championships bronze medallist 16-year-old Temirlan Nurlan Uulu and Suranchiyev was able to win that difficult bout at the Flyweight class (52 kg) using up his experiences in the youth level.
Nursultan Mamataly stopped two rivals in the road to the finals before the final gong and following that he defeated Beknazar Myrzageldiyev in the gold medal bout. National team member Khodzhiakbar Adikhamov and Aibek Abdimomunov Prizes Tournament winner Anarbek Zhaparov claimed bronze medals in Bishkek. Kyrgyzstan’s ASBC Asian Confederation Junior Boxing Championships bronze medallist Fatkhidin Khamroyev was eliminated by Zhaparov in the quarter-finals which was also a big sensation of the Bantamweight class (56 kg).
Two-time Junior National Championships bronze medallist 16-year-old Erzhan Yryskulov of Talas defeated Junior National Champion Kalys Aliakbarov in the final of the Lightweight class (60 kg). AIBA Junior World Boxing Championships bronze medallist Aknazar Zhyldyzbek Uulu claimed only bronze medal while another favourite Dmitriy Puchnin missed to get any medal in Bishkek.
Heydar Aliyev Junior Cup quarter-finalist Bekzhan Ilichbek Uulu of Naryn had to meet with Kyrgyzstan’s two-time Junior National Champion and ASBC Asian Confederation Junior Boxing Championships bronze medallist Daniyar Omurbek Uulu in the quarter-finals of the Light Welterweight class (64 kg) and surprisingly he could beat his younger rival. Another favourite for the gold Mayrambek Kaykiyev lost his opening bout in the Kyrgyzstan Youth National Championships which was won by Bekzhan Ilichbek Uulu in this category following his triumph over Erlan Kydyrov.
Heydar Aliyev Junior Cup bronze medallist and Junior National Champion 16-year-old Aybek Akylbek Uulu of Osh knocked down national team member Elkhan Nogoybayev in the semi-finals and continued his winning path against international competitor Argen Sherbekov in the final while experienced Salamat Seitkaziyev missed to get any medal in the battles of the Welterweight class (69 kg).
Mamyt Akerov Youth Tournament winner Mukhamed Akbarov of Dzhalal-Abad moved down to the Middleweight class (75 kg) and it was such a great decision from the young boxer. He eliminated Asian Confederation Junior Boxing Championships silver medallist Alisher Chatkalbekov in the quarter-finals and defeated Heydar Aliyev Junior Cup quarter-finalist Bekbolsun Toktosun Uulu of Bishkek in the gold medal bout of the event.
Azamat Amanov of Osh won the gold medal at the Light Heavyweight class (81 kg) where he was too strong for Danislan Toktorbayev of Chui. Junior National Champion Shokhrukh Mirzababayev of Osh region was too smart for Mamyt Akerov Youth Tournament winner 17-year-old Maksim Tkachev of Bishkek in the final of the Heavyweight class (91 kg).
Junior National Champion 18-year-old Kirill Novosad of Bishkek is an experienced Super Heavyweight class (+91 kg) boxer who defeated Bayaman Zhanzhigitov in the semi-finals and Zaman Kadiyev in the finals.
