Career

Amiri won two medals at the 2017 World Championships held in London, United Kingdom: the silver medal in the men's javelin throw F54 event[3] and the bronze medal in the men's shot put F55 event. At the 2019 World Championships held in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, he won one medal: the gold medal in the men's javelin throw F54 event.[4] As a result, he qualified to represent Iran at the 2020 Summer Paralympics in Tokyo, Japan.

Amiri competed in the Iran's Strongest Man competition for 11 consecutive years, winning the event in 2009. A car accident in December 2011 led to his disability and his eventual decision to enter the field of para-athletics.[5]

Just weeks before the Tokyo Paralympics were due to start, Amiri sustained an arm injury and initially withdrew from the Games as he was unable to continue with his training.[6] After undergoing hospital treatment, he reversed his decision not to enter the event, vowing to put all his effort into his first throw no matter what the cost.[5]
