UNLOCK THE BEST WRESTLING CONTENT WITH UWW+ https://bit.ly/UWWplusyt! Sharma could have been the history maker but Ali Ahmadi Vafa (IRI) denied him history with a 3-3 win in the 48kg final. The two had met earlier at the U17 Asian Championships two times with Ahmadi Vafa winning the group stage bout and Sharma winning the final. Ahmadi Vafa looked in all sorts of trouble in the final in Rome as Sharma secured a quick 3-0 lead with a turn from par terre as Ahmadi Vafa was called passive. After the break, Sharma went for a front headlock looking for a four but lost his grip midway and Ahmadi Vafa ended up on top of him. Initially called a slip, Iran challenged and won, trimming Sharma's lead to 3-2. In the final minute of the bout, Sharma is called passive and Ahmadi Vafa gets the 3-3 criteria lead. Despite him failing to turn Sharma from par terre, he defended against the attacks from the Indians to claim the world title for Iran. #WrestleRome UWW Official website : https://uww.org Don't miss a move : https://bit.ly/UWWsubscribe Download the UWW Official App now: https://bit.ly/uww_app Purchase UWW merch here: https://bit.ly/UWWgear
