In the men’s -48kg, Razmian delivered a dominant display against Spain’s Jairo Agenjo Trigos for Iran’s fifth gold of the Championships.
Razmian had required three rounds in three of his matches earlier in the day -against Thailand’s Sorachat Sawasri in the round of 64, Abdullah Essa A Almushraf of Saudi Arabia in the quarter-finals and Kazakhstan’s Temirzhan Taskyn in the semi-finals.
However, there were no signs of tiredness with his display in the final. He controlled the first round well and won it 6-1 to take the lead in the match. The Iranian athlete was 15cm taller than Agenjo Trigos, and in the second round he made full advantage of that, triumphing 12-2.
