Men's Greco-Roman 59 kilograms competition at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, took place on August 14 at the Carioca Arena 2 in Barra da Tijuca.[1]

This Greco-Roman wrestling competition consists of a single-elimination tournament, with a repechage used to determine the winner of two bronze medals. The two finalists face off for gold and silver medals. Each wrestler who loses to one of the two finalists moves into the repechage, culminating in a pair of bronze medal matches featuring the semifinal losers each facing the remaining repechage opponent from their half of the bracket.

The medals for the competition were presented by Nenad Lalović, IOC member, Serbia, and the gifts were presented by Namig Aliyev, United World Wrestling bureau member.
