Iranian Wrestling

Will be mental boost for farangi guys too. Could even argue we have better chance to win team gold there than FS.

I don't think Farangi does better than FS.
FS is Iran force, it always has been.
It is true our Farangi improved alot, but older members should remember back to not that far, even 20-30 years a go we couldn't even hope for a bronze and finishing even 5th individually could have been considered an achievement.

I was right. This is our first heavy weight gold in world champ since Soleimani in 1990

Sadulaev is the most decorated active wrestler with 2 olymoics gold, 4 world champ gold and a silver and he is only 25.
Not sure Goleij could have beaten him.

He wouldn’t have, sadulaev will probably go down as best wrestler of all time P4P. At least going by his current medal trajectory.

I think goleij was just superior to snyder and hence deserved a spot in the final. But there is nobody really on sadulaev level

I really hope young guys:

Elahi, AmirMohammad Yazdani, Nokhodi, Amouzad learn a lot from this. These guys were all strong in juniors and for their age, considering it was first major senior event they performed well collectively, much better than expected.

Interested to see what adjustments they make to their game in the next year.

Why is it so damn hard to find match replays anywhere online? At least Varzesh 3 website comes in handy for our boys big games

Wow, I've been sleeping on the lady wrestling action. Impressive!

Can you imagine Mazandaran ladies being allowed to wrestle one day, with all their historical and traditional emphasis on wrestling in that region? They would be a force to reckon with!

This is our last gold in 130 kg before Zare's
1990 swiss World champ
Alireza, soleimani(RIP) vs Bruce Baumgaetner.
This win was huge and historic, yadesh be kheir. Hame Iran o khoshhal kard. I was 13 and full of joy because of this victory, lol
Beating Baumgartner was such a big thing as he had about 12/13 world champ and Olympics medals. I think 6-7 golds.
He is one of the greatest heavy weight.
He even got gold in 92 olympics
Rouhe Soleimani shad.

He is answering really good. Talking about the razor thin margins. I like his honesty about the first world championships meeting where casuals look at the scoreboard. Also very classy of him to say that winning or losing important but that their competition make both better wrestlers. It's quite obvious he, and certainly Yazdani too, compete out of the love for the sport. I've always known he is polite, respectful and likes Yaz and iranians. He certainly grew in my eyes after this interview.

I wish other iranian wrestlers could handle a defeat like him. His mentality is super strong. He deserves good things.

The focus should be on our light weights, we usually struggle, we get medals here and there but our options, medals in heavy weights are way more than light or even mid weight.
That is the different between us and Russian, or even at some points us, they are good in almost most weights.

I highly doubt that, Goleij style is to defensive in my opinion, the only Iranian that would have a chance against Sadulaev is Reza Yazdani who is not competing anymore.
Mohammadian looked so promising and defeated Snyder 10-0 back in 2020, i am shocked that he is now totally out of the picture.

Pahlevan Soleimani (RIP) was wearing Bruce Baumgartners’ spare shoes in that fight were he beat him.
He broke his shoes prior to the fight and the US teams had spare shoes, and since both were the same size he borrowed it from him. When Soleimani passed away, Baumgartner expressed his condolences.

I had a thread abt Great Soleimani, who practiced Varzesh Bastani was a Pahlevan of Iran.
