“You Inspired Millions” – Khabib Nurmagomedov & Khamzat Chimaev Mourn the Tragic Demise of 6X Wrestling World Champ Buvaisar Saitiev​

Combat sports has lost another titan. Russian six-time world champion, Buvaisar Saitiev has passed away. The cause of death is reported to be a sudden heart attack, and the Chechen heritage Olympian, who was a State Deputy to the Russian parliament from Dagestan, was 49 at the time of his passing.


And the tributes have come pouring in. Including from some UFC titans from Russia, like Khabib Nuramgomedov and Khamzat Chimaev.


“May Allah forgive you Brother 🤲 You inspired millions of children around the world and we will miss you. I express my sincere condolences to the family and loved ones, patience to you 🤲,” ‘The Eagle wrote on Instagram along with a picture of him with Saitiev. Chimaev, too, paid tribute to the deceased world champion, posting a picture of him on his Instagram account.

 
The goat of freestyle wrestling, the best to ever do it.

His style was very aggressive than the usual soviet style, had a strong defense and was a wizard.

RIP

 
Damn. RIP legend. He was still relatively young I think, like 50 ish.
 
Some sources saying heart attack. That’s terrible, he was 49. I just watched a recent video of him wrestling, dude was still athletic. Hair was all white but he was moving good.

Iirc he just coached Khamzat for his match against Whittaker.

I really looked up to this guy growing up wrestling. He was a magician.
 
RIP, legend. Such a technician, or like people write, wizard. Amazing wrestler.
 


Well then, murder?

Did he speak up for civil rights in Russia?

Here's a better source than twitter.

Kadyrov the lying bastard says heart attack, his brother says he may have fallen out of a third story apartment window while doing housework?!?!?!?

Lookin like a political hit. What a waste. Fucking scumbags.

Correction:

"In 2016, he was elected as a deputy of the State Duma of the 7th convocation from United Russia, Putin's ruling party, representing the Republic of Dagestan."

Then Kadyrov was first out of the gate to say he died of a heart attack.

Dailymail is running the window fall story too.

Sounds like he took a legislative position representing his home district in Chechnya and may have raised concerns about the way forced conscription is being conducted in Chechnya.

Eh who knows, i cant find anything about him being in conflict with anyone in russian nor western sources.

That being said he was kadyrovs advisor and kadyrov is kadyrov so who knows.

Daily Mail also runs stories like 'Putin fell down the stairs and pooped his pants'. It's just very basic low level propaganda (Newsweek is too) (but it works, as you can see by how easy it is to get Americans foaming at the mouth about this based on nothing more than what the article itself admits is an unverified social media post - people don't read past headlines)

There's a Russian news site which has a sort of mini compilation of reasons given so far (Heart attack; Heart attack due to bad meds/lung problems; Fall from low level that didn't cause serious physical injury (so something else like it triggered a heart attack? the story isn't complete); fall from higher up that caused fractures (this one seems debunked already but again, we need more info); blood clot). It's worth mentioning the source for most of the 'fell out a window' stuff is Telegram posts (kinda like reporting tweets as 'news'; and hey, the 'source' for the 'Putin pooped his pants' story is also nothing more than 'a Telegram post said so'!). People should wait for more conclusive evidence to come out before rabidly jumping to conclusions.
