In the Kırkpınar Oil Wrestling held in Edirne Sarayiçi Er Square, chief wrestler Mehmet Yeşil Yeşil and chief wrestler Ali Gürbüz were matched in the draw in the second round competitions. After the pesrev pulls, both chief wrestlers fought fiercely. After the normal time expired, the scoring system was started. In the fight that lasted for about 45 minutes, chief wrestler Yeşil Yeşil beat Gürbüz with a sudden attack. While Başpehlivan Yeşil Yeşil and his fans experienced joy, Gürbüz experienced the sadness of saying goodbye to the eternal golden arch. Gürbüz’s fans could not control their tears.
Gürbüz, who was the champion of Kırkpınar in 2019 and 2021, would have the eternal gold belt if he was the champion this year as well.
