Ildar Hafizov (Uzbek: Ильдар Хафизов; born 30 January 1988 in Tashkent) is an amateur Uzbekistani Greco-Roman wrestler, who played for the men's featherweight category.[1] He won the silver medal for his division at the 2011 Asian Wrestling Championships, coincidentally in his home city Tashkent, losing out to Kyrgyzstan's Arsen Eraliev.[2]
Hafizov represented Uzbekistan at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed for the men's 55 kg class. He lost the first preliminary match to Russia's Nazyr Mankiev, who was able to score three points each in two straight periods, leaving Hafizov with a single point.[3] Because his opponent advanced further into the final match, Hafizov offered another shot for the bronze medal by entering the repechage bouts. He was defeated by Serbia's Kristijan Fris in the first round, with a technical score of 1–5.[4]
