2021 World Championship Rankings - Men's Freestyle

97 - Abdulrashid Sadulaev

Abdulrashid Sadulaev and Kyle Snyder are the clear #1 and #2 at 97kg and likely to meet in the finals. They will be seeded opposite one another in the bracket and look to be multiple levels above the rest of the competition at 97kg. Should Sadulaev choose not to wrestle, Russia will likely send Alikhan Zhabrailov who has won 4 straight senior level tournaments - 2020 Russian Nationals, 2020 World Cup, 2021 Russian Nationals and 2021 European Championships. If he is the rep for Russia, Zhabrailov would likely be ranked second behind Snyder.
