Iranian Americans cheer wrestling Champions in Los Angeles (video highlights)
Last Sunday, Iranian freestyle wrestlers defended their world Championship title as they first defeated Americans - in a close match- and then Russians, before an impressively large and loud crowd of Iranian Americans at The Forum in Los Angeles.
A large number of the 4000 seats in THE FORUM were used by loud Iranian American fans who waved flags, blew horns and sang for Iranian team but also cheered for US wrestlers. With an estimated one million Iranian Americans, California is now home to the largest population of Iranians in diaspora, who have, regardless of their political backgrounds, historically supported Iranian teams visiting the United States.
In the 1970's, Iran helped US Wrestling Federation train athletes and initiate professional programs across America.
Kodoom.com was an official Press and ticketing partner with USA Wrestling for 2016 World Cup.
