Sixteen fighters competed in a single-elimination tournament. The event was won by Korean Kwon Tae-Ho, which was not unusual, as Korean fighters won seven of the eight men’s classes. Kwon had never medalled at the World Championships, which were won by two different Korean fighters in 1985 and 1987. Kwon won the event by defeating American Juan Moreno in the final. Moreno also finished second this event at the 1992 Olympics.
