Krisna Bayu (born December 24, 1974 in Jakarta) is an Indonesian judoka, who competed in the men's middleweight category. He won the gold medal in the 100-kg division at the 2001 Southeast Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, picked up a bronze in the 90-kg at the 2004 Asian Judo Championships in Almaty, Kazakhstan, and represented his nation Indonesia in three editions of the Olympic Games (1996, 2000, and 2004).
Bayu made his official debut at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, where he competed in the men's 86-kg class. He lost his opening match to Spain's León Villar, who successfully scored an ippon and duly wrapped him on the tatami with a side-quarter hold (yoko shiho gatame) at three minutes and fourteen seconds.
At the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Bayu crashed out early again in his opening match of the men's 90-kg division to Brazil's Carlos Honorato by an ippon and a vertical four-quarter hold (tate shiho gatame) with only fourteen seconds remaining. While his Brazilian opponent moving forward to the semifinal, Bayu gave himself a chance for the nation's first ever Olympic judo medal through the repechage, but saw it slipping away in his first playoff defeat to another Spaniard Fernando González, who subdued him on the mat in a corner reversal throw (sumi gaeshi) two minutes and twenty-one seconds into the match. The following year, Bayu reached the pinnacle of his sporting career upon capturing the gold medal in the 100-kg division at the Southeast Asian Games in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
