Enkhbatyn Badar-Uugan (Mongolian: Энхбатын Бадар-Ууган; born 3 June 1985, in Ulaanbaatar) is a retired boxer from Mongolia who became the first Olympic boxing champion from his country when he won the gold medal in the Bantamweight (-54 kg) division at the 2008 Summer Olympics.[1] He was the second Mongolian to win an Olympic gold in any sport, with judoka Naidangiin Tüvshinbayar winning the first only a few days earlier.
