- Gochev has claimed a bronze medal in the 76-kg division at the 1997 World Wrestling Championships in Wroclaw, Poland, picked up a silver at the 2001 European Championships in Budapest, Hungary, and later represented his nation Bulgaria at the 2004 Summer Olympics.
- Throughout his sporting career, Gochev trained full time as a member of the wrestling squad for Slavia Litex Sports Club in Sofia under his personal coach Miho Dukov.

- Facing against two Olympic medalists from Sydney four years earlier, Gochev opened an astonishing 4–2 victory over Macedonia's Mogamed Ibragimov, but could not push South Korean wrestler Moon Eui-Jae off the mat, and suffered a defeat by a 5–9 score at the end of the round-robin.
- Finishing second in the prelim pool and twelfth overall, Gochev's performance was not enough to advance him to the quarterfinals.
