Sources given do only mention Athletes/National name, was not able to locate his name in the sources. The external links were Google translated, also no mentioning of him. CommanderWaterford ( talk) 16:07, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

- Comment - I have no comment on notability but this is probable COI. The same creator also created Mohammad Kazemzadeh, which is almost definitely an autobiography. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 16:47, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

- Delete There is nothing that shows significant coverage of him. Many of the references given don't even mention his name. They refer to results from various competitions where, I assume, he was the coach. Most of the other references amount to his name being in membership lists. His BJJ medals were from a tournament where his gold came from being the only entrant in his division and where no victories were needed to secure his bronze. In addition, those medals came in Master 1 divisions, which are for older competitors. Most of the tournament's divisions didn't even have enough competitors to award a full set of medals--that's hardly a major tournament. There is no supporting evidence of his medal in the kurash championships, only a link to an article that lists the Iranian team members. I could find nothing on the tournament except for a list of champions at the International Kurash Association website, not even coverage of how many competitors were there nor full results. It may well be he won a silver medal, but it's not clear that is sufficient to show notability, especially when there is not a single article that shows significant independent coverage of him.

- Delete - I agree completely with Papaursa's assessment of the sources available. This does not meet our threshold for notability in terms of significant coverage from independent sources. Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 16:36, 17 February 2021 (UTC)
