The fifth of Shahrivar is the day that is called the national "wrestling" day in the calendar. Named, his excuse is also the birth of world champion Takhti, a man without repetition in the history of Iranian sports. Pahlavi, once upon a time, many of the contemporaries of "Agha Takhti" And I asked the "broken" ears about why he lasted, everyone said something, but one sentence stood out to me the most: "He must have been a good person that God has honored him so much"

This was the simplest, most innocent and perhaps the most honest definition that could be given to a big bed. A man who himself was simple, lived simply, but did not die simply... an accessible definition, understandable to the public, without knowing much about his relatively short life.

A man whose most beautiful definition is perhaps Let this short sentence be that "he was himself". And that too in a society that runs away from being itself, wears a mask, every day becomes colored and glazed. Gholamreza Takhti was born on the 5th of Shahrivar 1309 in the south of Tehran. To go on the world stage, he endured a lot of hardship, like many wrestling champions, from a relatively weak family financially, with many falls that slowed down his progress, so that years later he He shared his memories and said that he went to work in the south of the country for a year and practiced wrestling there, he did not make any progress and nothing was added to his achievements, but this same wrestling lacks the talent of training in the south of the country, with Indescribable perseverance, he became the owner of records in Iranian sports, some of which are still intact, and more important than those records and championships is that 9 decades have passed since his birth, he is still a great man whose name is on the forehead of Iranian sports. ;Shine.

Jahan Pahlavan Takhti,  He won one gold, two silver and a fourth title in four periods of participation in the 1952 Helsinki Olympics, 1956 Melbourne, 1960 Tokyo and 1964 Rome. He was a teammate and a roommate, Pahlavan Takhti had told Tasnim about Jahan: "He was a great man, a popular hero." Of course, he hadn't been training for a while, he had almost given up wrestling, but he returned to the national team because of the people's heart and because the staff asked him to. We didn't have much time, maybe it was ready in a month and a half. Abbas Zandi was the head coach of the team. He had left some people by his side to train with him and prepare. Takhti came to Rome prepared, all he thought about was the Olympic gold... No one could believe that he lost... I was overweight and had to reach the weigh-in, that's why I was paired with Takhti and Mehdizadeh. They shared a room, they were calm and senior, and it was easier for me to gain weight. Takhti could not sleep after losing. He would wake up several times at night and say, "What should I answer the nation, I came to get a medal for them." He did not intend to return to Iran, he said that they took his ticket in such a way that he would return from the team after a few days. It was interesting that he returned to Iran a few days late and for those of us who had won a medal, not so many people came to the airport as they came for Takhti. Bod, the continuity of his championship period is also one of his unique records, there is no empty place for any medal in Takhti's collection of honors. He had gone to the hearts with medals and without medals, both when he returned empty-handed from the Rome Olympics and after the failure in Todigo, in the days when he announced his retirement and went to the world for the benefit of the team, people were even more than before. They loved him. Which hero do you know, whose people write to him after failure: "Let's laugh so that the hero doesn't see"?
His spirit of chivalry and bravery still flows in the alleys of Khani Abadno.

< It's good that after decades of focusing on how he died, his birthday was finally added to the calendar so that how he lived could be noticed. "You have to wait a lot for the father of old Falak... until the other mother of Gitti Chu gives birth to you" And history showed that someone in Iranian sports after him, Jahan‌ He did not become a fighter.
