Abdullah Mowahed, the second best wrestler in the history of Homeland

[custom_adv]


The peak of Mowahed’s sports activity was in 1968 at the Mexico City Olympics, where he won a gold medal for Homeland. But due to a shoulder injury, he failed to repeat this success in the 1972 Olympics. He went to America a little later, but he refused to coach the athletes of that country because his pride did not allow him to teach techniques to (American) students to use against Persian wrestlers.
