2025 Men's Freestyle International Wrestling Rankings

Pound-For-Pound - Akhmed Tazhudinov

Zaurbek Sidakov moves down to #4 after suffering a loss to Chermen Valiev at the European Championships. Valiev enters the rankings at #17 for his win over Sidakov. 

Rei Higuchi and Hassan Yazdani have been removed from the pound-for-pound rankings since they will not be wrestling this year. 

Kyle Snyder and Daichi Takatani drop out of the pound-for-pound after suffering losses. Snyder dropped a bout to Japan's Arash Yoshida and Takatani lost to David Carr.

Spencer Lee, Akhmed Usmanov, and David Baev are the new faces to the top 20 with the openings left by the absent wrestlers.
