Tuvshinbayar Naidan (Template:Langx born 1 June 1984) is a Mongolian former professional judoka.[1] He is the 2008 Olympic Champion, 2012 Olympic silver medalist, 2014 Asian games champion, 2017 World Championships bronze medalist, 2016 Asian Championships gold medalist, 2007 silver medalist and two-time (2008, 2011) bronze medalist in Template:Nbnd100 kg division. Naidan is serving a sixteen-year jail term since 2021 for killing fellow judoka and childhood friend Erdenebileg Enkhbat.

Olympic career

At the 2006 Asian Games he finished in joint fifth place in both the [[Judo at the 2006 Asian Games – Men's 100 kg|heavyweight (Template:Nbnd100 kg) division]] and the open weight division.[2]

Tuvshinbayar won the men's 100 kg division's gold medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. He was the first Mongolian ever to win a gold medal at the Olympics,[3] by defeating Kazakhstani judoka Askhat Zhitkeyev[4] (according to the old rules of judo, where it is allowed to double and single leg takedowns,[5] with the legs grabbed by the hands,[6] similar to a freestyle wrestling).[7] On 14 August 2008, he was inducted as the state honoured athlete of Mongolia as well as a hero of labour.[8]

At the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, Tuvshinbayar won a silver medal, becoming the first Olympic multimedalist from Mongolia. He won his silver medal despite suffering a serious injury in the semifinal bout.[9] Also, at the 2017 World Championships, he won a bronze medal, becoming both an Olympics and World Championships multimedalist.
