Amateur career
At the Soviet-Cuban joint pre-Olympic training camp in Sukhumi, Georgian SSR, set for the 1988 Olympics, he sparred with Félix Savón, constantly staggering him with devastating bodyshot flurries at close range. They never met again though as Shanavazov was in the lighter weight class. Olympic Results • Defeated Patrick Lihanda (Uganda) by majority decision, 4–1 • Defeated Markus Bott (West Germany) by majority decision, 4–1 • Defeated Andrea Magi (Italy) by majority decision, 4–1 • Defeated Damir Škaro (Yugoslavia) by walkover • Lost to Andrew Maynard (United States) by unanimous decision, 0–5 ==Professional career==
