Career
Zegarra stands 2.02 metres (6 ft 75 in) tall and weighs 165 kilograms (364 lb). Zegarra represented Peru at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed for the men"s heavyweight class (+100 kg). Because his opponent advanced further into the semi-finals, Zegarra offered another shot for the bronze medal by entering the repechage rounds.
Unfortunately, he was defeated in the first repechage bout by Lebanon"s Rudy Hachache, who successfully scored a waza-ari awasete ippon (two full points) and a soto makikomi (outer wraparound), at one minute and fifty-five seconds.
