Mohammad Hassan "Homa" Mohebbi (Persian: محمد حسن محبی, born 6 September 1956) is an Iranian light heavyweight freestyle wrestler from Kermanshah. He is often confused with his twin brother Mohammad Hossein Mohebbi, who competed in lighter categories (74 or 82 kg).

He won one silver and one bronze medal at the World Championships, with the silver medal being stripped over what was considered unsportsmanlike behaviour, which was essentially Mohebbi being forced by the Iranian team officials to step down from the podium when the US anthem was played. He was also a two-time Pahlevan of Iran.

Like many of his fellow Iranian wrestlers in the 1980s, his sport career suffered on account of political influences of the Iran's sport organizations at that time. Iran boycotted the Olympic Games in 1980 and 1984, and did not participate at the Wrestling World Championships in 1979, 1983, 1986, and 1987.
