At the airport of the capital of the Republic of Tyva with special honors met Okhur Byrnnaya - bronze medalist of the World Championship in mixed martial arts (MMA) in 2026, which was held in Tbilisi (Georgia).

The path of the athlete to the pedestal was an example of true devotion to the sport: behind the medal are thousands of hours of exhausting training, strict discipline and colossal work on yourself. At the tournament in Tbilisi, Okhur held a series of tense fights - each round was a serious test of strength.

The fight for the third place deserves special attention: in it the Tuvan fighter demonstrated not only honed technique, but also exceptional psychological resistance. It was skill and strength of spirit that allowed Okhur Byrannai to win a bronze award in the company of the strongest fighters of the planet.

An important role in the success of the athlete was played by his mentor - coach Artysh Kombu. The daily work, patience and faith of the coach in his ward became an integral part of this victory. The Okhur medal is also a recognition of the merits of his mentor.

A truly warm atmosphere reigned in the arrivals hall: the hero was met by relatives, friends, fellow athletes, coaches and representatives of the sports community of the republic. Sincere hugs, congratulations and happy smiles made this moment especially touching – it will definitely remain in the memory of all those present for a long time.

The sports community of Tuva calls Okura Byrnaya the pride of the republic. His steadfastness, strong character and his path serve as an inspiring example for young athletes.
