General
SIBLING SUPPORT
In April 2021 he earned his spot at the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo through a successful run at the Asian Olympic qualifier in Almaty, Kazakhstan. This meant he would be joining his older brother Mohammadali, who had already qualified for the 2020 Olympic Games. "I am so proud to come from a wrestling family. My brother always supports and motivates me. It is an honour to go to the Olympics with him. It will be great to have him there as my supporter, my partner and my teacher." (irna.ir, 10 Apr 2021)

WEIGHT CHANGE
In 2019 he began competing in the 72kg category, winning gold medals at the Asian Championships in Xi'an, People's Republic of China, and World U23 Championships in Budapest, Hungary. In 2020 he decided to switch back to the 67kg to prepare for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo. "I wrestled in the 72kg category last year [speaking in 2020], but I decided to go back to the 67kg. The 72kg is not an Olympic weight so I have to test myself again in the 67kg. My weight condition is suitable for the weight." (varzesh3.com, 19 Dec 2020; tasnimnews.com, 20 Jun 2020)
