The International SAMBO Federation congratulates Fedor Emelianenko on his 50th birthday!

It is a great honor for the entire global SAMBO community to congratulate a legend of our sport, a person whose example has helped make SAMBO a symbol of courage, skill and strength of spirit.

Fedor's achievements as a four-time World Combat SAMBO Champion and an outstanding MMA fighter, whose bouts inspired an entire generation of sambists, are written into history for good. Just as important, Fedor Vladimirovich continues to carry that history forward as SAMBO Global Ambassador, inspiring thousands of young athletes.

His journey as an athlete, coach and public figure is a huge contribution to the promotion of SAMBO on the international stage. Fedor Emelianenko's participation in FIAS events and his support for young sambists strengthen our sporting traditions and help raise a new generation. We are sincerely grateful to Fedor Vladimirovich for everything he does for SAMBO, in Russia and across the world.

On this special day, we wish you, from the bottom of our hearts, good health, well-being and renewed strength in serving our common cause. May your example continue to inspire those who are just setting out on the SAMBO path, and may your contribution to its development grow with each passing year.

Happy birthday, dear Fedor Vladimirovich!
