OLYMPIC STYLE WRESTLING has never really caught on here despite our love for most things at the Olympiad. But this video from the Junior World Championship could change that as it answers the age old question of what would happen if Chuck Norris and René Higuita had a baby and that baby became an Iranian wrestler capable of performing ridiculous spinning reversals.
The closest I ever got to a wrestling mat was seeing a former Azerbaijani Olympian flip and dislocate a friend’s elbow, but I still know a spectacular move when I see one.
With skills like that RTÉ should definitely remember the name of Iman Sadeghikoukandeh when they are planning their 2016 Olympic coverage. Well, maybe write it down because it is a bit of a mouthful, to be fair.
Thanks to Lúcás Ó’Ceallacháin for the video
