At the 2010 Asian Games in Guangzhou, Kuzmin produced a magnificent freestyle anchor of 49.71 to deliver the Kazakh foursome of Stanislav Osinsky, 2004 Olympic fifth-place finalist Vladislav Polyakov, and newcomer Fedor Shkilyov a bronze-medal time in the 4 × 100 m medley relay, posting a textile best of 3:40.55.

Kuzmin competed for the Kazakh swimming squad in the men's 50 m freestyle at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Leading up to the Games, he stormed home the field with a winning time of 23.09 to eclipse the FINA B-cut by just a fingertip of a second (0.04) at the Kazakhstan Open Championships in Almaty. Swimming in heat seven, Kuzmin dipped under the 23-second barrier to take the fifth spot in a scorching lifetime best of 22.91, but missed the semifinals with a forty-eighth overall placement from a roster of ninety-seven entrants.
