Daiki Nishiyama

Daiki Nishiyama (西山 大希, Nishiyama Daiki; born 20 November 1990 in Higashihiroshima, Hiroshima) is a Japanese judoka. He won the silver medal in the middleweight (90 kg) division at the 2010 and 2011 World Judo Championships. Because of Nishiyama's ranking and recent form it has come as even more of a surprise that he was not included in the Japan squad for the 2012 Olympics. The Japanese judo association instead went with the more experienced Masashi Nishiyama in the ‍–‍90 kg category.
