Iranian Wrestling

4 finals lost - Except Yazdani the others choked.... I don't even care, anyways.... thank god olympics is over, it's been stressful

[Nokhodi]

On a lighter note I blame the freestyle losses on Navid.
whenever he watches TM they lose, and now when he watched wrestling live in house Iran lost its finals.

I joke of course.

A bronze medal

[Nokhodi]

For me Azarpira did our best freestyle wrestling. Damesh garm. He won the bronze.

Lets call it a happy end with Azarpiras win over snyder. We could have done better...but also worse. Daste Bacheha dard nakone

Azaripa won the bronze with a torn ligament. Respect.

A lot of ups and downs in this Olympics. Our performance was actually pretty decent. The bad taste was not being able to get over the hump at the gold medal matches.

I know a lot of you guys crap on the world championship, but if you have never watched it, I encourage you to give it a go at the end of October. It’s a very good and high intensity tournament. Additionally there are more weight classes, which makes this event truly complete. It’s an absolute travesty that some of the worlds best wrestlers are not able to compete in the Olympics, such as our own Kamran Ghasempour. Some try to jump into other weight classes, but physically it hinders their form. When I look at Amouzad, I worry that this guy is going to have a real hard time getting to 65kg as he ages.

Congratulations to Iran… Iran’s second most medals won since 2012 with 13…. Special thanks to team Taekwondo with 4 of the 12 medals

Crazy update. The doctors think Azarpira has a torn ACL from yesterday’s match with Tazadinov.

I am ok with overall performance of FS, again 4 medals in 5 weights! That is quite an achievement. Specially with Russians all over!
Also dont forget only 16 wrestlers make it to this stage in each weight!
With a bit of luck and better mental preparation we could have had one or two more golds but i am overall satisfied!
Btw, Azarpira will be one hell of wrestler in future.
Azarpira 22
Rahman 22
Zare 23
They will still be around for 2 more Olympics!

Apparently they didn't tell him from what i heard!
The guy is solid rock wrestler! He will win gold in near future
The only one who really challenged Tazhudinov

We have three FS wrestlers with potential to become legends of the sport. Our GR team exceeded expectations and performed marvelously in their finals. I think we should be hopeful and proud of the future of our wrestling, we have a generation that can continue elevating our name in the sport and winning glory.

Maybe don’t crown yourself as a king before you win gold ?


in separate note, do we just have bad analyst for wrestling? Forum members know that Geno was a dirty fighter but Zare seemed unprepared for it? Japanese team probably spent all night analyzing amouzad and had a strategy. 10-3 is an unbelievable choke job after dominating the field. We gave away 2-3 free gold this Olympics

[Omid177]

Why has Japan all of a sudden become so good at wrestling? What are they doing?

[Iran_19]

Yesh it is not about losing! I am much more ok with Azarpira losing last min to Olympic Champ than both Zare and Amouzad getting destroyed in final!
