Armenian wrestlers win more medals on final day of Kiev tournament

Armen Melikyan (60kg) beat Ukrainian Denis Chubanov and Karapet Chalyan (77kg) defeated Azerbaijan’s Hasan Aliyev, while Artur Shahinyan and Maksim Manukyan (87kg) also won their fights for the third place, competing with Alexander Shishman (Ukraine) and Semyon Novikov (Ukraine) respectively. 

Earlier, Artur Aleksanyan (97kg) won gold and Slavik Galstyan (63kg) brought bronze to Levon Julfalakyan’s team.
