The men's freestyle 87 kilograms (middleweight) freestyle wrestling competition at the 1962 Asian Games in Jakarta was held from 28 to 29 August 1962.[1]

The competition used a form of negative points tournament, with negative points given for any result short of a fall. Accumulation of 6 negative points eliminated the wrestler. When three or fewer wrestlers remained, they advanced to a final round, with only preliminary results amongst them carried forward.
