Buvaisar Hamidovich Saitiev (born 11 March 1975 in Khasavyurt, Dagestan ASSR) is a Russian freestyle wrestler of Chechen heritage. He is one of the most decorated freestyle wrestlers of all time. He is also a three-time Olympic champion, nine-time world champion and six-time European champion.

Interesting Fact

In third grade for an essay titled "What do I want to be when I grow up?", he wrote "I will be an Olympic champion". When the essay was declaimed at his school graduation, his mother, Belija Saitieva burst into tears. By that time Buvaisar was already a city champion, junior champion of Dagestan and winner of the USSR championship. Yet he yearned for more, and as keeping his promise to himself became an Olympic champion.

It doesn't matter if you're better than someone else. What matters is if you're better than yourself yesterday.
