Yianni Diakomihalis is one of two defending world champs in the field; the other is Gable Steveson. He is attempting to become the fifth wrestler since Cadet worlds was re-instated in 2011 to win back-to-back titles. Steveson and/or Diakomihalis could be the first Americans to go back-to-back ever, including the old cadet worlds prior to 2000.

He has a very favorable road to the finals, starting with Switzerland and Georgia. The quarters will be either Kazakhstan or Poland, with Russia looming in the semifinals. That Russian has a similar name to one of those four repeat champs, a guy by the name of Abdulrashid Sadulaev. The Russian in Yianni's weight tomorrow is Muslim Saidulaev.
