His personal best was 83.46m in 1990, at the time World and European record; with the collapse of the Soviet Union (a member of the European Athletic Association), his decision of competing for Tajikistan (a member of the Asian Athletics Federation) left him in the paradoxical condition of being the world record holder, but not record holder of his continent.

Not so, Yuriy Sedykh's WR of 86.74 was set four years earlier. 83.46 was only his PB, but since he represented USSR at the time, it's considered a European mark. Representing Tajikistan his best was 83.36 from 1993, the Asian record until Koji Murofushi broke it in 2003.
