    Competition of 74 kg, 84 kg and 96 kg wrestlers started in Baku today.

    Representatives from Armenia launched the tour successfully.

    Arsen Julfalakyan (74 kg) defeated Aleh Mikhailovich of Germany with
    a technical victory and will compete with Arsy of Finland in the
    1/8 final.

    Denis Forov (84 kg) of Armenia defeated Viyetsekh Kukla of Poland
    and will compete with Riox of Canada in the next tour.

    Arman Geghamyan (96 kg) has also started successfully and has overcome
    the 1/8 final ban and will compete in the quarter-final.

    Azeri journalists have been forbidden to interview Levon Julfalakyan,
    the head coach of the Armenian team of Greek-Roman wrestlers
    participating in the World Wrestling Championship underway in Baku.

    Mr. Julfalakyan first agreed to speak to local journalists, but the
    guards attached to the Armenian spots delegation prohibited the Azeri
    journalists to approach the Armenian delegation.

    Yesterday Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev awarded the President
    of the International Wrestling Federation (FILA) Raphael Martinetti
    with an "Order of Glory" and expressed confidence that the World
    Championship in Baku would be organized on a proper level.
