Finally, Ghazaryan won the gold medal at the 2001 Junior World Championships in Thessaloniki and became a Junior World Champion. He competed for his native country Armenia at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Greece, finishing in fourth place in the men's featherweight (62 kg) division. Though Ghazaryan lifted a total of 295 kg, the same as the bronze medalist, he took fourth place due to a personal weight difference. Ghazaryan would have won Armenia's only Olympic medal in 2004 had he won bronze. Ghazaryan later won a bronze medal at the 2006 European Weightlifting Championships. He also came in second on the clean & jerk at the 2006 World Weightlifting Championships. In May 2008 he became a Russian citizen and began representing Russia.
