Osamu Watanabe

Encyclopedia : O : OS : OSA : Osamu Watanabe

Osamu Watanabe is arguably the most successful freestyle wrestler to date. Hailing from Japan, he took a gold medal in the 1964 Olympics without giving up any points. Perhaps most importantly, he retired afterwards with an unbeaten record of 186-0 (without having given up any points through any of his matches), making him the only modern Olympian in any style of wrestling to go unbeaten throughout the entirety of his career.
