2026 Men's Freestyle International Wrestling Rankings

70 kg - Ernazar Akmataliev

Mostly steady. #8 Eltemirov lost the Kadyrov Memorial final to #6 Tavaev, then won U23 Worlds by beating Elahi in the final. Andreasyan stays at #9 despite three losses (to Retherford, Ibragimov and Aliyev) on the strength of earlier wins.
