Ramazan Kadirov himself drove Saitiev & Albiev in a Rolls-Royce limousine downtown where thousands of people waited for the celebration. Kadirov gave either 500.000 USD and a key of a 4-room flat in Grozny.

Now either of the Chechen champs has on his account:
500.000 USD from Kerimov (for all wrestling champs)
500.000 USD from Kadirov
100.000 Euro from the Russian state (for all Russian champs)
a flat (est. 200.000 USD)

I believe he'll also get money from his region (Krasnoyarsk) as well as his Club (CSKA or whatever it may be). When everything is said and done his pay out will be to tune of $2 Million.

Which is really more like $8 million in Chechneya and Krasnoyarsk when compared to American cost of living.

hehe is enough, eh! In my country, wrestlers or any athlete, who represent the country must resolve themselves their sport. And if you win a medal ... do not receive anything.

But there were hare 5 decades ago, under the chairmanship of JD Peron that if retribucuibes receiving significant economic, social status, and houses.

Someone can describe the monetary prizes that came with 2 million dollars?

Do other Russian athletes won 1 gold medal how much money received?

Any link to see?
