LocationArena Carioca 2, Parque Olímpico da Barra, Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro
Participants33 from 33 countries

The medals in the men’s 81 kg category were not destined for the four leading seeded judoka. Of these, only the reigning World Champion Takanori Nagase of Japan won a medal when he defeated the top-seeded former World Champion from Georgia, Avtandil Ch’rik’ishvili to win bronze. The other two athletes from the uppermost part of the ranking list, Canada’s Antoine Valois-Fortier and Bulgaria’s Ivaylo Ivanov lost their quarter-finals against the eventual finalists, Khasan Khalmurzayev and Travis Stevens, respectively. The Russia versus United States final was decided by Ippon (full point) with Uchi-mata (Inner thigh throw) after 2:42 min in favor of Khalmurzayev. He claimed the second gold medal in the 2016 judo events for the controversial Russian team. For the second bronze medal, Sergiu Toma of the United Arab Emirates scored an Ippon with Sumi-gaeshi in 2:16 min. The 29-year-old Moldava-born Toma competed in the 2008 and 2012 Olympics for his home-country, before moving to the UAE. His bronze was only the second ever medal for the Emirates.
