The highlight of his career was the 1968 Olympics in Mexico, where he won the gold medal for Iran. He competed again in the 1972 games, but injured his shoulder in the early rounds, and did not advance to the finals. Movahed later moved to the USA but refused to train American wrestlers, in case they had to face an Iranian opponent in a major tournament. He is listed in the FILA wrestling hall of fame.
