Yuri Evseichik

Yuri Evseichik (Hebrew: יורי יבסייצ'יק, Russian: Юрий Евсейчик; born 23 January 1971 in Donetsk, Ukrainian SSR) is a retired amateur Israeli Greco-Roman wrestler, who competed in the men's super heavyweight category.

Evseichik did not compete internationally until 1998, when he became the bronze medalist in the 130 kg division at the World Championships in Gävle, Sweden as part of Israel's Greco-Roman wrestling team.

[2] Two years later, Evseichik made his official debut at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, where he competed in the men's super heavyweight division (130 kg).

He managed to score a total of 11 technical points and a powerful set of three triumphs to defeat Czech Republic's David Vála, Turkey's Fatih Bakir, and Poland's Marek Sitnik to earn a spot in the knockout rounds.

When Evseitchik reached the semifinals, he led U.S. wrestler Rulon Gardner in the opening bout, but began to exasperate during the match and lost his fight in overtime with a default score of 3–2.
