Wrestling career
Adam initially started his senior-level international career at 69 kg, or around 152 lbs. He found the weight cut too severe, and soon moved up to 76 kg, where he was world champ in 1999. However, this was his elder brother Buvaisar's weight, and Adam wanted to compete alongside his brother at the Olympics, not compete with him for a spot on the team. Adam moved up to 85 kg, and despite being undersized, won two world-level titles at the weight.
Saitiev competed many times throughout after 2002. But his career had many injuries.
Saitiev made a comeback in 2012. He found significant success, but in the Russian freestyle wrestling championships 2012 final match lost to Denis Tsargush (1-0; 1-0)
Adam is a recipient of the Order of Honor (2001) and Order of Friendship (2004).
