Sergey Alikovich Arakelov (Russian: Сергей Аликович Аракелов, born 18 July 1957)[1] is a retired Russian heavyweight weightlifter. Between 1978 and 1982 he won two world titles and set five world records: two in the snatch, two in the clean and jerk and one in the total.[2] While competing at the 1979 World Championships Arakelov severely injured his shoulder and recovered only by 1982. He retired in 1983 due to another injury.[1]
After retiring from competitions Arakelov graduated in economics and served as a sports functionary. His uncle Yuri Radonyak was an Olympic medalist in boxing; his father was also a boxer and his mother competed in rhythmic gymnastics.[1]
