David Khakhaleishvili (Georgian: დავით ხახალეიშვილი, born 28 February 1971 in Kutaisi) is a retired heavyweight Georgian judoka, mixed martial artist and Olympic gold medalist.
He was expected to defend his heavyweight Olympic title at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia in a highly anticipated match against the reigning world champion, David Douillet. But Khakhaleishvili and his coach went to the wrong location for weigh-ins and Khakhaleishvili was disqualified from the competition for failing to make weight.[1]
