Professional athletes in the family Oleg Saitov has never been. But Oleg's father as a young man engaged in a struggle, and often told his son about how sports helped him to stand up for himself. These stories Saitov always listened with great interest ... But in the sports section Oleg led not the father and elder brother Vadim, who had already engaged in boxing.

The first significant victory Saitov won in 14 years, becoming the second in the youth championship Russia. Since then, Oleg began to receive for their work on food stamps, that the family was not over - Oleg's father was a chauffeur, and my mother all his life worked as a nurse.

His first coach Oleg Saitov believes Konstantin Loginov. "That's him, I began to really work, and formed like a boxer," - says Oleg.

After graduating from the 8 classes, Oleg went to study at Autocrane in Novokujbyshevsk Technical College. Loginov meanwhile Saitova paid less attention - Oleg had to go to the competition alone, and it overflowed in the elementary neprisuzhdenie him a deserved victory. Burnt child several times, Saitov realized that something needs to be changed. On the advice of his brother and European Junior Champion Dmitry Korsun he moved to Zhigulevsk.

Then there were brilliant victory, already adults at the CIS championships (1993, 1 st place, weight 63.5 kg) and the World Championships (1993, Finland, 3rd place, weight 63.5 kg).

In 1994, when Oleg was 20 years, and behind him - an impressive list of big victories, he overcame the "star fever". Today Saitov not like to talk about that period - then I made a lot of this, which is today just unpleasant to remember ". Utkin, seeing that with the beloved disciple is wrong, were trying to get him back on the ground ", but to no avail. In the same year from Oleg beginning of the recession in the athletic achievements - in the championship of Russia, it took only 2-nd place, and the Goodwill Games held in St. Petersburg, content with only 3-m. Search for the causes of failure in itself did not want - Saitov was inclined to blame the surrounding circumstances.
