Sanjar Zokirov (also Sanzhar Zakirov, Uzbek: Санжар Закиров; born 6 January 1983, in Tashkent) is an Uzbek judoka, who competed in the men's extra-lightweight category.[1] He attained a fifth-place finish in the –60 kg division at the 2002 Asian Games in Busan, South Korea, and also represented his nation Uzbekistan at the 2004 Summer Olympics.[2]
Zokirov qualified for the Uzbek squad in the men's extra-lightweight class (60 kg) at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, by placing fifth and receiving a berth from the Asian Championships in Almaty, Kazakhstan. He lost his opening match to Georgian-born Greek judoka Revazi Zintiridis, who scored an ippon victory and quickly subdued him on the tatami with a tani otoshi (valley drop) twenty-seven seconds remaining into their bout.[3]
