Hassan Yazdani, the illustrious champion wrestler of Iran, recently had a cold and brief encounter with Hadi Aamol, the well-known wrestling reporter, at the World Championships in Astana. This meeting occurred after a month of resentment between these two prominent figures in wrestling, due to a controversial remark made by Aamol regarding Yazdani and Arash Yoshida.
The Incident of Resentment and Reactions
Hassan Yazdani's resentment towards Hadi Aamol dates back about a month, when Aamol, during the commentary of the match between Arash Yoshida and Amirali Azarpira at the Nagoya Asian Games, made a statement that was heavily criticized by Yazdani's fans. At that moment, he said: "Now wait and see what this Arash Yoshida does against Hassan Yazdani at the Worlds." This statement quickly became a hot topic in the media and social networks, generating numerous reactions.

Hassan Yazdani, who is one of the best in the history of Iranian wrestling with 11 world and Olympic medals, was deeply upset by this remark. Reports also indicated Hadi Aamol's attempts to contact Yazdani, but this champion was not inclined to engage in conversation. It seemed that this grievance would not be easily resolved.
Meeting in Astana and Lack of Reconciliation
The World Championships in Astana provided an opportunity for these two veteran figures of Iranian wrestling to meet again. Hadi Aamol, who had traveled to Kazakhstan a few days earlier, expected that this meeting would turn into an opportunity for reconciliation. However, the encounter was conducted in a cold and lifeless manner. Hassan Yazdani limited himself to a brief greeting and showed no signs of willingness to reconcile.
Reports from Astana indicate that Yazdani has maintained his distance from Hadi Aamol and is not inclined to get closer to him. While it was expected that the passage of time and their joint presence at the World Championship camp would help end the grievances, the reality shows otherwise.
Hassan Yazdani and Hadi Aamol are both popular and well-known figures in the field of wrestling and sports in Iran, but now a few seconds of a sentence has created a deep rift between them. It seems that this grievance has not only affected their personal relationships but could also impact Yazdani's spirit and performance in future competitions.
In Astana, there was currently no news of reconciliation, and only a cold greeting was all that remained from this meeting. Now we must wait and see whether these grievances will soon come to an end or if Hassan Yazdani is still trying to move past that bitter sentence.
