Vyacheslav Lemechev
Anyone know what happened to this guy ? He was amazing at the 72 Olympics where he won the Gold medal in the Middleweight division. If I remember correctly he stopped all of his opponents including Marvin Johnson in 2nd, and the tournement's runner up Reima Virtanen of Finland in the 1st. I can't seem to find much about him though outside of the 72 Games.
After 72 Olympics (he was 20 years old when scored phenomenal 4 KO's of 5 fightes in Munich) he won twice European championships - 73 and 75.
In his career he has 103 wins of 111 matches. Lemeshev wasn't so active in trainings but has great talent. After the end of his career he went as military in Germany, then he never worked somethiong common with boxing.
Died 1996 on 44 years
