Russians offered me cash to throw 2010 world wrestling final: Sushil Kumar

The ghost of fixing is not just rampant in cricket. India's only sportsperson to win two back-to-back medals in Olympics Sushil Kumar has revealed that he was asked to lose the 2010 world wrestling championship final bout in return for cash in Moscow. According to a report in the Times of India on Friday, Sushil says a member of his support staff said his Russian opponent Alan Gogaev "wanted to talk about the bout," just before the final.
