The men's Greco-Roman flyweight competition at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome took place from 26 to 31 August at the Basilica of Maxentius. Nations were limited to one competitor.[1] Flyweight was the lightest category, including wrestlers weighing up to 52 kilograms (114.6 lb).[2]
Competition format
[edit]This Greco-Roman wrestling competition continued to use the "bad points" elimination system introduced at the 1928 Summer Olympics for Greco-Roman and at the 1932 Summer Olympics for freestyle wrestling, though adjusted the point values slightly. Wins by fall continued to be worth 0 points and wins by decision continued to be worth 1 point. Losses by fall, however, were now worth 4 points (up from 3). Losses by decision were worth 3 points (consistent with most prior years, though in some losses by split decision had been worth only 2 points). Ties were now allowed, worth 2 points for each wrestler. The elimination threshold was also increased from 5 points to 6 points. The medal round concept, used in 1952 and 1956 requiring a round-robin amongst the medalists even if one or more finished a round with enough points for elimination, was used only if exactly three wrestlers remained after a round—if two competitors remained, they faced off head-to-head; if only one, he was the gold medalist.[2][1]

Round 5
[edit]Pârvulescu was the only wrestler left with fewer than 6 points; he took the gold medal. The tie in the standings between El-Sayed and Paziraie at 6 points for the silver medal was resolved by head-to-head results; El-Sayed had defeated Paziraie in round 2, so took silver.
