Cuban Wrestler Mijain Lopez Becomes First Athlete to Win 5 Consecutive Olympic Golds

Cuban wrestler Mijain Lopez, at nearly 42 years old, became the first athlete to win five consecutive Olympic gold medals in the same individual event, defeating Chile's Yasmani Acosta 6-0 in the heavyweight Greco-Roman final. This surpasses the four-peat records held by the likes of Carl Lewis, Michael Phelps, Katie Ledecky, and others. A living legend of his sport, Lopez came out of retirement after Tokyo 2020 to achieve this historic feat, which required exceptional longevity at the highest level. Iran's Amin Mirzazadeh won bronze, along with China's Meng Lingzhe.
