Mohammad Nokhodi (Persian: محمد نخودی; born 7 February 2001 in Mazandaran, Iran is an Iranian wrestler.

He won the gold medal in his event at the 2024 Asian Wrestling Championships held in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.[1]

Mohammad Nokhodi, though possessing residency within Canada; actively represents Iran in his higher than normal age groups. He has also been suspended by the United World Wrestling for 6 months due to alleged age fraud in February 26 2024; claiming that his age was 23 and assuming a completely different birthdate to compete in specific tournaments.

The UWW have made specific exemption and change in policy to allow Nokhodi to compete above his age group; just ensuring he wouldn’t compete underneath it.
