Female wrestler punched by Russia's head of wrestling for most ridiculous reason

25-year old Russian wrestler Inna Trazhukova matched up with Poland's Monika Michalik in the bronze medal match for the 63kg (about 139 pounds) weight class. She lost 3-1 and didn't win a medal, but still had a great Olympic appearance. However, that apparently was not good enough for the president of the Russian Wrestling Federation,

25-year old Russian wrestler Inna Trazhukova matched up with Poland's Monika Michalik in the bronze medal match for the 63kg (about 139 pounds) weight class. She lost 3-1 and didn't win a medal, but still had a great Olympic appearance. However, that apparently was not good enough for the president of the Russian Wrestling Federation, Mikhail Mamiashvili. He was actually pretty upset and took his anger out  on Trazhukova.

Russian female wrestler Inna Trazhukova says the federation president Mikhail Mamiashvili punched her in the face twice for losing Bronze.

The worst part? Mamiashvili didn't even try to deny the accusation and even owned it.

Mamiashvili didn't even deny it. He says she was responsible for the result, but didn't try enough. Trazhukova is going to take him to court

A Russian newspaper had more on what she said, translated from Russian to English.

"He spoke roughly, rude and hit me twice in the face. All this happened in front of witnesses," she said.

She said she planned to inform the prosecutor's office about the incident and Russian Sports Minister, Vitaly Mutko.

"I'm not a slave to because of the lost battle with me to do so I was humiliated in public I want to stop it, so that later do not suffer from athlete's it!" she said.

It's a rough translation, but Trazhukova is clearly upset and she does plan to take him to court. The 52-year old Mamiashvili is a former Russian wrestler. He's also a FILA Bureau Member (Federation of Associated Wrestling Style) and was inducted into the FILA Hall of Fame in 2008.
